Sweet Dulce!

This is my attempt at a picture. This is the first one I ever saw of her. Look at those eyes!

This one would have to be my favorite. But both these first two are older photos. Perhaps six months or so.

Wow the photos are working.

Here is the most current photo at about 9 months. She is 11 months now. I will get video, photos and a new medical soon.

My goodness I need to get my homestudy done! Can you believe two families have backed out of adopting her!!!!!!!??? God intended her to come to our home. I will tell more about the miracles later. I am too full of joy to say much more. I might just explode.
