New Pictures of Ruthie Joy!


Look at this blessing!!! Pictures of our precious precious daughter and the gift of capturing her face seeing her family for the first time. A friend of mine picked up her daughter from Ruthie's orphanage, the Shanghai Children's Welfare Institute. She delivered a package from us and was able to meet and pray over Ruthie Joy! Ruthie was just returning from her PT and on her way to lunch ~ a little tired and hungry. But cute as cute!

You can see a lot of her personality from the pictures. She is oh so sweet and beautiful!


Seeing her family for the first time ~


Almost can hear her in her soon to be southern accent saying, "Oh My!" as she sees all 8 of us.

Is she about to clap?
(I wonder if the look on the nanny face is due to the translation of Ruthie being on of 7 children?)

That will be me holding her just like that very soon! Such a serious little face.




This is where the pictures get really really sweet



LOOK AT THAT SMILE!~

Doesn't get any sweeter than a kiss blown from China! and to see the tenderness and connection you have with your nanny. You are loved!

My sweet Ruthie Joy, I caught it!
