I love it!! I especially love that you call her little bit. How cute is that!! She is adorable. I especially notice her lips are the pinkest lips ever!! I will be on the edge of my seat waiting to see what happens. My hopes and prayers are with your family and with little bit. I will be praying daily for all of you!!

Does anyone else think Little Bit looks like Laura's daughter Sabrina???

I hope you can make a family for her. So sad since I am sure there are many in the same spot. God bless them all.

PS, Candy, Jagger reminds me of my son Danny as a baby.
So cute.
Mary

I can not believe what a peanut she is compared to Jagger. I love the nickname Moose, LOL. Have a great trip and take lots of pictures.

She is SOOOOO adorable! Love the name of the blog and that you are calling her "little bit." SO cute! Have a great visit trip and can't wait to see pics!

My heart aches for all of the little ones caught in the transition in Guat. I pray that you are able to add her to your family... she would be a lucky girl! Your strength and perseverance through all of this uncertainty is AMAZING! Hang in there girl and give Jagger and Little Bit a big hug and kiss from all of us

In the first pic, it was hard to tell how little she was until the 2nd pic w/ adult hands and she really is a "lil bit." A BEAUTIFUL LITTLE BIT --- I can totally see how she stole your heart. She is stealing mine as well! Will be following this journey and praying for her to have a forever family ( hopefully w/ U).
