I apologize that these pictures are not of good quality. I copied them off of Ingrid's My Space page. However, I think her beauty still shines through.
This is my sister Ingrid. Is she just not beautiful????? I could have not made it these past two years without her. She is the best thing that has ever happened to my children. Sophia and Daniel just adore her (Emmie too) and I know she feels the same about them. She just graduated this past weekend from college and we are all very proud of her. She may even be moving in with us during the summer. Ingrid is hoping to leave in November and to live in The Netherlands for a while. Secretly I am hoping it doesn't happen even though I truly am thrilled for her. This is her chance to do something like this in her life. Still young and free! lol But she wants to leave with as much money as possible so she may stay with us until she leaves. I've promised her privacy and when she is scheduled "off" that we will respect that. ;) You have to see her with Sophia......it seriously takes my breath away.....I'll post pictures of the two of them together soon.....and Daniel looks at her with his big blue eyes like he is totally in love with her. I owe her so much....thank you my sweet sister for helping me with my children. You are the best Aunt anyone could ask for. I love you! ;)

Best of luck to her and all she does in life.
I agree though, I wouldn't like it if my sister left either.
What a bright future she has ahead of her. How exciting! What a blessing for your children to have her as such an important part of their lives. (I'm thinkin' she feels just as blessed!) :)

You must be so proud of your baby sister, graduating and planning her future in Europe(you'll miss her, do I see a trip or you in the future??).
A moving, beautiful tribute to a gorgeous sis and Auntie.

In one of those pictures she looks like she is full of vim and viger.
Going to Holland,hmmmm she is impressing Mr.Brian.
We may need to make her a little Dutch girl too.
Tulip Festival is in two weeks.I am about to dust off my wooden shoes.
She is just gorgeous! What a wonderful blessing to have such a special sister and for your children to have such a great aunt.
She is beautiful!!!!! My oldest daughter Olivia is from Korea. How exciting for your sister to be going to the Netherlands. Now is the time. My son Chris has been out of college for almost 3 years and I think he wishes he would of done a bit more traveling before hitting the corporate world : )
Thank you for your email today it was very sweet and much appreciated!
Ingrid certainly is beautiful (inside and out)...there is NOTHING quite like the relationship between sisters. I love to watch Lily with my sister, too...just makes my heart want to burst!
We are sooo blessed!!
Thanks, Steffie, for this post. Your sister is just GORGEOUS! (Yes, we women can say that about each other!) It sounds like you two have a great relationship. It is so nice she has gotten to spend so much time with her nieces and nephew... and hopefully still more time this summer.
You look just alike ;) Kidding!! You both are beautiful!!! I love that she will stay with you and be your nanny this summer!! That is great!!

ok so what is HER story? I've always wanted to adopt from Korea...that was my first international choice...China was actually #3 on the list...I would love to hear more about your sis...how old were you when she was adopted? and how old was she?
The Netherlands are so cold...and far away...have her come to MN instead :)
She is absolutely beautiful..it sounds like inside as well as out!
She is absolutely breathtaking! Wow! I look at her and think of my little Emma Jane from Korea....hard to think of her all grown up! She can come here...I need a Nanny...Oh wait! I AM the Nanny! Ha!
She is stunningly beautiful. Does she know you snagged her my space photos???
Whenever I hear you talk about it her, it is with such love.
Sisters are priceless.
Your sister is beautiful. I am glad she has been there to help you these past two years.

what a beautiful sister you have. I too can't wait to see a picture of her with your kids. Congrats on her recent Graduation. Hope you are able to have her with you longer:)
I hope we get to see a picture of YOU with your sister!
(I still love the fantastic photographs you get with your camera!...I really like the one of your three children standing at the edge of the water, facing ahead, hand in hand, with their backs to the camera...so philosophical!)
