Bella.....Beautiful

A few months ago, I was given additional photos of Bella from another adoptive mom, Mandy, who visited Bella's orphanage when she was on a missions trip to Ukraine.

Here are they are:




These photos were taken in April 2008 when she was three. She looks like a petite little thing. I am excited to find out her size, weight, shoe size, but mostly what it feels like to actually hold her in my arms! Counting the days.....

    What a beautiful little girl you have!!! I, too am anxious to hold our Tori and learn about her size, her likes and dislikes (if she has even been given a chance to develop those), etc. How hard it is!
