You may remember that our niece Judi and her husband, Reuben, were here for almost a month last winter as they began the process of adopting a little boy.
They were back for a few days for a court date. It has been a “nerve-wracking” journey for them, and it is ongoing. Pray for them and their little man as they come to your mind.
I took care of the children during their court date.
Teaching the little miss how to blow bubbles.
Trying to get little man to smile for the camera.
When I noticed that the fallen cherry blossoms almost camouflaged her, I asked her to walk through them.
Enjoying an ice cream cone while we wait for cousin Deb and two of her rescue animals.
This time Deb brought Buttercup the fawn and Erica the groundhog.
Both were orphaned shortly after birth and brought to Deb.
She wasn’t sure about this little creature.
She was more comfortable with Buttercup.
She liked the cherry blossoms. They were probably sweet.
Thanks, Deb. That was a fun visit for me and the children.
It was a priceless day. It was so fun watching the children meet the animals too
Thanks for coming.
I will pray! There isn’t much that touches my heart more, than children who need parents. And Doris, you absolutely MUST do a cross stitch of that photo of the fawn and the groundhog together, the one right after all the shots of the kids. It is so adorable!! 🙂
Thanks for the idea of doing a counted cross-stitch of them.
My goodness the children are growing up quickly. I love the shots of the little girl in the cherry blossoms! And how fun for them to get to meet the fawn and the groundhog! You have some treasured photos here!
Thanks.
Doris, I think this is my very favorite post of yours. The flowers, the animals, the children. Just beautiful! Praying that the rest of the adoption process goes smoothly and quickly.
Thank you for praying and for your kind comment.
I don’t know WHEN I have seen more adorable photos! The fawn in the cherry blossoms just takes the cake ~ 🙂
It was a perfect setting for the pictures.
