Operation Christmas child

It’s that time of the year again. Time to share with those less fortunate…

We want our child to be humble and to be thankful for her blessings. We want our child to be appreciative and to always remember to share with others especially to those who are in need.

Our girl loves selecting little gifts for a little girl around her age somewhere in the world. A little girl that will have a smile when she receives her little present this year during Christmas.

Here she is so excited to decorate and pack her little box !

She took her time to make sure it was just perfect :o)

She even added a little letter !

This is her first time going to the shoe-box drop off area. Our girl was able to see pictures of children receiving their presents and pictures of where many of those children live. It was an eye opener for her…

November

Feeling Better and enjoying a bit of fresh air!

Gracie update cont....hospital stay :o(

November did not start good :o(

We were called from school because our baby girl was not feeling well. She had a tummy ache and fever. We took her to the hospital and she had to get surgery due to appendicitis :o(

Thank goodness it is over! She is home and she is doing great, our girl is such a trooper!

Her drawing :0(

It is never easy to see your child in pain. We would give anything for our child to never hurt in any way. We are just so thankful that God has given us the honor and privilege to care for her and be by her side during the happy times as well as the more challenging times to love her and care for her as best as we can. We want her to know that we love her more than words can say and we will always be there for her no matter what.
