I just love seeing those pictures of Poppy smiling! It definitely appears that she is blossoming right before your eyes. What a precious gift from God!!
Thank you for sharing her with us! She is too beautiful for words you are right. And the photo of her looking at her little hand is SO touching–and then the next one where she’s licking it, HA! SO sweet. I am going to just love reading about her unfolding within your family! So happy for this blessing!
Wow, she is a beauty for sure!
Add a little love, a pinch of patience and watch her bloom!
Wow!
The power of love and prayers for sure…Wow, okay I’m done but wow!
It is hard to believe that this is the same little scared girl you met in China just two short weeks ago. She is absolutely beautiful….. and you can see that she is letting her personality begin to shine through. What a precious little angel she is…….. Enjoy every moment with her. I know you are:)
It blesses my heart to witness her blooming in all these beautiful pictures. She is adorable and looks like she’ll thrive in such a loving environment. Thanks for sharing her journey.
Awesome and more awesome! I’ve made my poor husband look at her pics to see her God given improvement. I’m so happy for your family WITH Miss Poppy being added. Much love;)
What a beautiful journey you have been given to travel. She was beautiful before, but that precious grin/smile appearing brings on even more beauty. What a blessing!
wow, she really is blossoming – even her referral pictures showed a sadness in her eyes that isn’t there now. Thank you for sharing, I’m traveling to China soon to adopt a 2 year old boy, and I’m so nervous about handling his grieving properly. Thank you for showing there is a light at the end of that sad tunnel. .
Just so amazing to watch her blossom right before our eyes through these pictures!!! God is so good to transform her little heart in such a short time!!!! She is home.
I haven’t kept up with your journey because I’ve been so wrapped up in our adoption, but I can’t wait to go back and catch up! She’s absolutely beautiful. Many blessings to you!
