Sara Ava's Special Day....

As you can tell I am LOVING my new camera. It is a Kodak 12 mega pix with 5X zoom. I really like it alot. I bought mine from Walmart.com and saved $30.

Anyway.... We gave Sara Ava the choice of where to eat last night and of course she said McDonald's. She did not want cake but Ice Cream for her celebration. That was easy, she is not to hard to please! Then we came home and watched a movie with the kids. I think she had a really special day! I made her the cutest Tutu. It was not hard at all and didn't cost much.

(It was a no sew Tutu,so that was right up my alley!) When I was making the tutu I had Joel to be my model. He was the perfect height, Hee Hee! Then when it was done I put it on Sara Ava and cut it to the right length for her. I am going to make one for Lilee for her Gotcha Day.(Coming up really soon)

Verses that really spoke to me and helped me get through our adoptions.

(John 14:18) " I will not leave you as orphans, I will come to you."

(Isaiah 43:5-6) "Do not be afraid, for I am with you,
I will bring your children from the west. Bring my sons from afar and my daughters from the ends of the earth."

(Proverbs 25:25) "As cold water is to a thirsty soul : so is good
news from a far country."

(Matthew 6:25-34) The do not worry chapter.
This is the chapter that told me we would adopt again and the
baby girl woud be named Lily (Lilee). "The lilies of the field".
This is a great reminder of why we should not worry, God will take care of his people!

(Psalms 82: 3-4) "Defend the cause of the weak and the fatherless; maintain the rights of the poor and oppressed. Resue the weak and neady; deliver them from the hand of the wicked."

(Psalms 68: 5) "A father to the fatherless, a defender of widows, is God in his holy dwelling."

(Deuteronomy 10:18) " He defends the cause of the fatherless and the widow and loves the alien, giving them food and clothing."

(Philippians 4:13) "I can do all things through him who gives me strength."

(Philippians 4:6-7) " Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present
your request to God. And the peace of God,which transcends all understanding will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus."

(Romans 8:28) " And we know that all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose."

(James 1:27) "Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after the orphans and widows in their destress, and to keep oneself from being polluted from by the world."
