New Pic





Here is the latest picture of MF. I know its really small, but she sent it to me small and I can't make it any bigger! She is just getting so big and so adorable. (I removed pictures from my posts until the adoption process is complete). She will be 3 on January 6th. She had her first birthday when I was there with her. We celebrated by buying a cake at the local bakery and feeding it to all the kids in the cuna (Spanish for "crib") where the kids 0-2 live. 30 kids eating cake= FUN! I can't believe it has been two years since then, but I am so glad she continues to grow and to do well.

Here is the update Stacey sent:


MF is doing much better with her respiratory difficulties since getting the pneumonia vaccine. She is growing strong and healthy and big! She has outgrown all the clothes that I left with her in August. While in my care, she was wearing about the size of 9-12 month old child. Last week my Mom, who is still in Ecuador, traded out her clothes for size 2. That is such good news. Little MF is not so little anymore!
For Christmas, I gave her foster family a little extra money so they would be able to have a nice meal and buy gifts for their own children and MF. Thank you so much for your sponsorship!
Merry Christmas!

Kim, she is so cute! What is the latest on the Ecuador trip? I want to see Flor!

Well, you are gonna have to talk to mom about that. Also, don't you want to adopt her? I'd be happy with that.

Oh and PS. For Shawna and all else who wonder... she is in a foster home right now because Stacey, the director took a year off. She deserved it, as she runs the home for 10-12 special needs kids alone and has done so for the last 5 years. She is traveling the United States (she is from Arizona) and then will go back to Ecuador I think sometime this spring/early summer. But Flor is in a good home for now as far as I know.

Two years!!! I can't even believe it. What a difference from all those nights in the hospital. Heavenly Father does really watch out for those children, we both know how many prayers were offered in her behalf.
