Today was the last day of VBS.  Whew, we're all wiped but
fun was had by all!  I'm blessed to be part of such a wonderful
church family that comes together to help out with VBS and
share their love of Christ with the children of our community!

The boys did a great job as the snack helpers.  Lots of hungry
kids to serve. :-)

Q helped out (when she could) but mainly stuck to my
hip---literally. She did venture out with a few of my friends
towards the end of each day, esp when music was playing. 
We were told with her initial paperwork that she loved music
and it's totally true.  She dances and claps her hands on Sunday
mornings during worship and this week was no different. :-)

Today during the closing part of the program a song was
sung by the preschoolers and it involved using sign language.
The song was titled 'He Knows My Name'.  As the song
was playing, she was signing (mind you at a two year old
level, but it was signing to her).  This mom lost it.  Tears of
joy!  This little girl knows the love of Jesus.  I truly believe
it.  She prays with us at meals and says 'Amen'.  When we
pray at bedtime, she's ready with eyes closed and hands
folded.  The song reminded me once again that He knew her long
before we ever contemplated adoption and was watching
over her until we could bring her home.  Okay, need to stop
before the waterworks begin again. :-)

Thank you Jesus for watching over Q and giving her peace
about her new family and life!  Thank you as well for the
blessings of J & D in our lives!
