Oh what a wonderful way to begin the week! Seeing these precious pictures of our precious daughter just melts our hearts! We received an email today from Angela with Ladybugs N Love with these four beautiful pictures and the answers to ten questions we sent! We feel blessed beyond belief to have these pictures and new information about Lucy. We long for the day to see this sweet face and hold her in our arms...all in God's perfect timing. We feel so incredibly blessed that our Lord called us to adopt and chose this little girl to be our daughter and Karlye's little sister. Karlye was so thrilled to see these pictures of her little sister! She wants to get on an airplane NOW and go to China to see her!
