We visited Hannah today and as usual she amazed us! She is definitely not living in her own world, (as we were told), she is definitely understanding what we show and tell her, (unlike what we were told). She is so precious and we long to go there for the last time, pick her up, and bring her with us to begin her new life full of love and family!

The reason we are not posting more pictures...She really doesn't like the camera and tries to knock it out of my hand. If John stands back and takes pictures she covers her face and gets upset. So for now we will not be taking pictures until she is comfortable with it. John was able to sneak a video probably because she was distracted with the food and there was no flash!

If all goes well we are hoping to pick her up after the 10 day wait so we have a few days with her before getting the babies. We hope this will be on the 4th or 5th of Sept. Please continue to pray for us now and when we get her with us that she will have peace. That she will feel safe and know in her little spirit that she can trust us! Pray that she will embrace being out of the institution and not feel overwhelmed!

Below is a video from today's visit! Proof that our little girl is so much more than they have allowed her to be!

  2. She understands you! You can clearly see it from the video. I love it when these supposedly uneducatable kids defy their label at first opportunity. You go, little girl.
