Can I tell you how cute this little one is? I mean really cute!! It doesn't matter what mood she is in, we find ourselves constantly smiling! She is a treasure, an absolute pleasure! We are blessed beyond measure! We are so thankful for all she adds to our family. We had an opportunity to minister in North Carolina this past weekend with Ruby. We are hoping and praying that God will use our story to inspire others to walk in faith and adopt a child in need of the love and care of a family. While we were there, we were able to see the sights of Mount Airy, aka Mayberry. That's where Andy Griffith grew up and where the show found its seed. The people there told us that the TV producers filmed the shops, business and homes and then recreated Mayberry on 35 acres in California. We had such a great time.
The cardiologist has decided to wait and watch this hole in Ruby's heart. We are praying we will watch it close on its own and have a good report as time goes on.... After having her blood analyzed, we have discovered that she did not have adequate amounts of many of her immunizations and so they will need to be done as soon as they finish testing her blood...
I am so thankful for the love and support of my family and friends during this transition. We had a difficult time at first with bonding between Ruby and myself but she loves me lots now! Yipee! When I have more time I will pop back on and share more pictures. School break is almost here and Christmas preparation is upon us. We are so excited... not only to watch her enjoy a warm home and a yummy variety of foods but we are so looking forward to Christmas morning when she opens her gifts and is overwhelmed with the shower of love we will bathe her in, in celebration of the One who moved us to the point of inviting her into our hearts and lives.
