Newest Pictures of Aliyah and Christéla

Our sweet Aliyah. She has such a radiant smile and I just can't wait to be able to bring her home and hold her and see her laugh with her brothers and sister! (They had to shave her hair off earlier this summer due to a bout with impatiago on her head... but it is growing back in some and she should have braids again soon - can't wait to see them again!) Lord, please hold her in your arms and let her know how much you love her.

Our precious Christéla. Such a happy smile and two little teeth in on the bottom and one (I think) on the top. Isn't she just beautiful! (They shaved her head too!! To allow the sides to grow back in with the top... so we have two precious girls trying to grow their hair back in right now. :) )God, please be with her - hold her in your arms and love her... please protect her from any illness that might complicate things and please show her how much you and we love her!
