Sweet ShayleeJoy


This morning after we were back from breakfast,
SJ picked up my cellphone and figured out how to turn it on.
My screensaver pic is her at the bd party in China
and when she saw it, she smiled SO big
and turned to show me.
I just happened to be holding my camera and snapped this.
Priceless.
She pointed to the others and said their names.
I know she must miss them so
and I can't even explain to her what has happened.
Praying God speaks to her heart for me.
In the meantime,
I will hold on to these smiling moments from Him!

PS... Thank you all so much for your precious comments!!!
We read each and every one.
Please know even though I don't answer back,
I LOVE getting them.
They make the time away from home so much easier.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart!
AND KEEP THEM COMING!!! :)

  1. She is just beautiful...and smart too. Our guide in China spent quite a bit of time talking to our girls and explaining to them what was happening. Your little SJ is going to be just fine. I can just tell by looking into her eyes that she is a very intelligent child.
