We all got a good night's sleep last night. Ivy and Gift went to sleep at 8 and both woke up at 6 am. It's now 6:25 am and Ivy's not screaming. She ate a big bottle and is in Gift's lap just talking and playing with her toys. Friends, your prayers are working. Last night we were all just talking about how these girls just don't know how to play or cuddle or do the things we take for granted. They truly have been in a big basket watching the world go on around them. We so appreciate your praying. PLEASE don't stop. Things are getting better for her and I know the Lord is working great things out right now. We have a shopping trip planned with the other families in a few hours, so we'll post later. We love and miss u all.
Yay! The sister bond is starting! We are so happy to see how everything is unfolding. Just can't get enough of these pictures...thank you for sharing all this with us. The video leaves you speechless. It is wonderful to see what we are praying for...and it is working. Look forward to more!!

It's so nice to see the sisters bonding. I'm so glad things are going better for your family. We love you!
ReplyDeleteWaahhh! I want a sister for Ava!! Smuggle one home for me. This is such a neat time for Ivy! You're right-- she's probably thinking "Umm... why won't you just put me down? Why are you holding me?" or "zing tao la liang chow"... whatever the translation would be.
ReplyDeleteLoving Gifty loving Ivy!!
Awwww...I just love seeing those precious girls together!! You're going to have to get a recording of the old Irving Berlin song...if you and Marcus don't know it, your mom and dad will....
ReplyDelete"Sisters, sisters, there were never such devoted sisters..." and then -
"All kinds of weather, we stick together,
The same in rain or sun...
Two different faces, but in tight places,
We think and act as one...."
Oops - me again - SO happy to know that Ivy is relaxing and feeling the love that God has been saving just for her! What precious blessings you guys have received!!!
ReplyDeleteLove you-
Jane
Gift looks like a natural!
ReplyDeleteMY GOD DOES WONDERFUL THINGS FOR US. I HAVE WATCHED THE MOVIES OF YOU RECEIVING THIS PRECIOUS LITTLE CHILD. I JUST WANTED TO CRY. I AM SO OVER JOYED WITH EMOTION. DON'T TELL ME GOD DOES NOT HEAR PRAYERS. I CAN'T WAIT TO TOUCH HER AND SEE HER. LOVE YOU, WAYMON
ReplyDeleteAwwww...sweet sisters! I'm so glad that things just keep getting better and better. Praise the Lord for all of that sleep!!! What do you get to go shopping for? Sounds fun! :) Love, Lindsay
