I must be nesting!

Well, this afternoon we received 2 pictures of our little girl from the Walkers. In one Charis is sitting at her desk in school, and in the other she is eating lunch at the orphanage. Her hair has grown a little compared to the referral picture we have of her and we can see much more evidence of her facial burn. It also looks like she lost one of her front teeth! Ahhh, the joys of being 8 years old.

It is somewhat surreal to look at your daughter, to see her living life par usual and not even to have met her. What we know about her is so little yet it is so much more than what she knows about us. I can't even imagine what must go through her mind when she looks at our picture!!

Anyway, after seeing these pictures, I had to buy SOMETHING! So, I headed over to SuperTarget and prepared a little travel bag filled with toiletry items just for Charis. Now she has her own toothbrush, toothpaste, shampoo, conditioner, body wash, body spray, clippers, nail polish and strawberry lip gloss. For you guys, that may not seem too important, but any girl will know how special this little bag is. I can't wait to give it to her.

What is going through my head right now? We serve an AWESOME God!
