Friends

Today we had some new friends come over.  Miss Rosy Mei and Mrs. Katy O'Neill heard about us through another friend who has adopted.  It turns out that Rosy Mei is from the same Social Welfare Institute in Maoming City, Guangdong Province as Maggie Rose!  Rosy is almost 3 and came home in Sept. 2009 just 2 months before Maggie was brought to the orphanage.  Rosy also had a unilateral cleft lip and palate just like Maggie and has already been repaired by the same surgeon we are using.  Katy told me we should have such confidence in our surgeon because he has lots of experience closing older children's palates and still goes back to China yearly to do mission "cleft surgery" trips yearly.  AMAZING provision from God!  Katy gave me tips for post surgery etc.  SO  wonderful, and isn't Rosy beautiful!

Maggie was a bit fussy, and unsure if she was going to have to share me.

Maggie and Rosy bond over a tub of beans (thank you again Grancy!)

My flexible Maggie is asking Rosy to pour beans over her head.  So silly!

Max the Cat is also Maggie's friend.  He likes to watch from on high while Maggie has her bath.

Which she has to have after a meal like this!

We thank God for the provision he has given us and for provisions he has in store.  Time and time again HE has shown himself to be faithful providing when we don't know we needed it! Katy's husband (military Dr.) has orders to move to Washington State in June.  So the timing is amazing!

  1. You go Maggie! You have learned, as I have, that you don't have to merely eat your food--that's so boring!! It's SO much more fun to also wear it!!
