The Best Update Ever:)

Last night before I went to bed, I prayed a very specific prayer...I prayed that God would let us hear some little tidbit in response to the care package we sent to our daughter over a month ago. BOY, DID HE DELIVER!!!!!!! Lucy and I were running errands and I got a text from Lifeline saying 'check your email'....well, of ALL days, Charles borrowed my computer for work and I was without, so I frantically called my sister and drove to her house. I was so nervous and shaky, just so much anticipation...we had only seen her referral and file...her pictures were so sweet, but so very sad. I remember seeing the most recent picture in her referral and just breaking down seeing the sadness in those big brown eyes--not one smile in all of the pictures....so, I get to Regan's, finally get my email pulled up, to see this unbelievable smile......

As soon as the pictures started loading, the tears started falling....it all seemed sooo real seeing her with the clothes and pictures of us that we sent....and it felt so good to see her show some emotion....We got 7 new pictures and a letter from the orphanage answering some of our questions.....I will post more a little later, but just wanted to give you a sneak peek!!! My eyeballs feel like they have sandpaper in them from crying and staying up late, so I am hitting the hay and I know I will probably dream about our little angel....I give God all of the glory...he is so faithful!!!

Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us...Ephesians 3:20
