Tell me about your picture, Lula.
“Sun right here.” Pointing to, obviously, the sun.
“And this ladybug. And this one. And this one.”
“And this one and this one.”
Evidently she drew more lady bugs than we can see here.
“And this one you, mama.”
Why did you draw mama with the ladybugs, Lula?
“‘Cause the ladybugs go outside.”
Hmmmm.
And so why did you draw mama with the ladybugs?
“‘Cause they go home. Um ’cause, um ’cause you want follow them, mama.”
Alrighty then. I think this is a good place to stop asking questions.
Because ladybugs make me think of only one thing. And if God wants us to do that, He’s going to have to send a lot more than a ladybug.
No matter how adorable this one is.

Dana says
That is so stinking cute!
Ashley says
that is really sweet! She’s so darling. My 3.5 yr old daughter told us last night she has a sister named Polly (big surprise to us!) and we need to get her. hhmmm….seems these little ones might know something about something ๐
Rebecca says
I’m not too sure I know what ladybugs mean?
NiHaoYall says
I’m not too sure either, Rebecca!
But here is how the tale goes: “Several years ago in China, as the international adoption programs were beginning to take off, there was a fall season where the ladybug population grew unusually large. This was thought to be a lucky charm for those that were adopting, so now whenever ladybugs are seen, it is said that more beautiful children are being referred to wonderful waiting parents.”

Ohhh! a precious boy who waits and hopes for a family all because he is a boy.
elisabeth says
Lol! Out of the mouths of babes!
Shelby says
Sounds like God is telling you something in a super creative way…through your littlest girl ๐

Tera says
Oh so precious… perhaps she really is telling you something. ๐
Yvette says
heehee LOVE the 2nd picture – I would make it look like a watercolor and print it – the emotion is incredible. But you probably won’t have time because that’s and awful lot of ladybugs (signs!)
Jen says
Extremely adorable! Love her little face. Sometimes these little ones know more than we could ever imagine. You might just want to listen to that one–plus, she’s too darn cute.
Amy says
Well……You are moving into a mighty big house!!
Sarah says
I think soon enough you might find yourself paper pregnant!
Kristin says
Right from the beginning, I was gonna say, “It sure sounds like a Ladybug sighting to me!” ๐ Yes, it does.
Aus says
You know how we got started into adoption the first two times right? ๐
OK – the third time we were open to His call – but the first two time….
just.sayin’….
hugs – aus and co.
Teresa says
LOL Ok, I can totally be grinning and laughing right now, because thank my lucky stars, it’s not MY child who said that! Whew! ๐ Maybe it just shows she is well aware you came to get her and listened to God to bring her home. But I like the theory of your family expanding even more!
Fannie says
LOL!!! She is so precious!! It is amazing to me how God works. This adoption has been more of a journey of faith and growth in God then I ever could have imagined. It has truly required a full surrender to God on my part as I give up my wants to focus on what God wants…
Very interested to see where this journey takes us all! ๐
Catherine says
LOL! It will be fun to see if this was the start of something new…… :o)
tish says
hilarious!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Also, I love this. That commenter is right: out of the mouths of babes! xo
Dusty says
??? I wonder what it all means! I love this post and it has me wondering, guessing, thinking, and praying for y’all. Whatever His will may be! ๐
