We are back!!!
Our computer crashed on Wednesay and we haven't been able to use
it at all. Praise the Lord and thank you to Michael Parr for helping
us get it fixed from the other side of the world!!
We will be leaving Nanning today to go to Guangzhou.
It is so hard to believe that we have been here for more than a week.
SH is doing awesome. She is saying more and more in English.
Her first English phrase was "No Buttons!"
I was on the computer and she got in my lap and started
trying to push buttons. I pulled her hands away and said, "No Buttons!"
She just giggled and said it back to me. Now everytime she gets
around the computer, she will look at me with that mischievious
little smile and say, "No Buttons!".
She has also perfected "I Love You" and of course, she can
say "Roll Tide!" We are so blessed that everything has went
so well. Not much crying and lots of laughing. Praise the Lord!!
We have bunny wars every night in the room. Daddy gets on one
side of the bed and the girls get on the other and the battle is on!
We throw stuffed bunnies at each other. It is so funny to watch
them and listen to them laugh. SH also loves dressing up in her
princess dress. She always has to look at herself in th mirror.
She is so beautiful, just like HG!! HG is doing great and
she is a great sister. SH does everything that she does.
Jealousy has already kicked in...on both sides. Imagine that!!
Whatever one has, the other has to have. If you touch one, you
have to touch the other. I love it!!! They love to dance!
Steph was hoping that SH would have a more calm personality
like hers. Wishful thinking. I think SH may be more wide open
than HG. It is amazing to us how comfortable that she has been.
Imagine being in her position. Two strangers that are a different
race and speak a different language come and take you away from
everythng and everybody that you know. They take you to a room.
They have a daughter that looks like you, but doesn't talk like you.
You are only four years old. You must be terrified. Confused.
It would be so hard. We don't like to get out of our comfort zones
as adults. This is WAY out of her comfort zone, but she just jumps
right in and seems to be very happy! Don't get me wrong, that could
change any minute or when we get home. But I am going to count my
blessings right now and give God the praise that He deserves for
delivering us such a beautiful little daughter and giving us so
much peace this first week.
God, You are so good, ALL THE TIME!!!
