Sugar and spice...

...and all that's nice, that's what girls are made of :)  Here's another picture of Darya taken by a family who adopted from her orphanage.  She's about 18 months here.  The dark stuff on her mouth is a kind of medicine they seem to put on children's skin if there are any sores.  I just want to go and pick her up and bring her home now and smother her with kisses!  This picture just melts and breaks my heart.

You and Naomi will grow up together and be the best of friends, and you will always be surrounded by the sweet love of God.
