Another adoptive parent recently brought to my attention that American Girl has a doll named Ivy. And guess what! She is Chinese! You know I'm not one for picking popular names for my children. I thought that when I picked Ivy that it would be a little unique. I hope no one thinks I named her Ivy because of this doll.
On another note...I found out that Ivy's middle name is not pronounced "Shew" like I had thought. Her orphanage friends, who recently came home to their families, are calling her "Shoo-ay". So, Margo,if you are reading this, you were right, the "e" in Xue is pronounced, not silent like our English language.
