Finally, Uncle Dan and Aunt Jessica made it up from Texas to meet our newest addition. It was the cutest thing. They brought her a little pile of presents. (I must preface this story by telling you that Faith calls herself "Faiful" and when she see's something that belongs to her she says, "That's a Faiful") Well, Dan and Jess put this little pile of presents down in front of her. She didn't understand that they were for her. Jess tried to explain. When Faith finally realized they were for her, her face absolutely lit up and she started gathering the presents in against her in a little pile with a huge smile on her face and kept exclaiming, "That's a Faiful, That's a Faiful!!" It was cute/sad. Sad that an almost 3 year old has never had presents and she just could hardly believe they were for her.
They got her a Mulan doll and a beautiful set of Chinese pajamas.
Today when I put her on her stool to eat lunch she folded her hands and said "Pray."
Then she bowed her head and said, "Dear God" Then she sang "All the Children of the World" (from the middle of Jesus loves the little children)
She's getting the idea!!!
