one of these little gals came to me from eurasia, one from asia, but they are woven into my heart like a beautiful tapestry.  my Lily, my Ava, my beloved daughters.

we celebrated them and orphans around the worldsaturday night.  it was an amazing, beautiful time.

God truly moved in the hearts of dear friends, family and our church family.

we are forever grateful !!

once upon a time there was a little girl who cried when her brothers and
sister went to school

now.... she sneaks up to their rooms, finds their most precious toys and
her imagination takes flight.

i was going to call this, 'tea for one" but with all the chattering
going on and the pouring of tea. i was convinced ava had her dearest
imaginary friend in the room.

i love age 2, and 3 and 4..... how blessed we are
!
