Blessed Baby Girl

I'm sure Andrea will hate me for adding this to my journal, but there's no better way to see how far she's come.  In this picture, the only thing fat about her was her bloated little belly.  This was a few days after we took her into our home.  She weighed just 5 pounds.

To me, she looked beautiful.  When friends came to visit, they often cried to see her like this.  It took a little while to add weight to her.  We had to find formula that she could tolerate.  Mostly, she needed to be held close,

She's come a long way!  I think the Lord has something special in mind for her.  What do you think?
