Meet Lydia Mei!

2.9.10

I cannot wait any longer. I have to introduce our sweet girl, Lydia Mei. Her Chinese name means “beautiful moon.” We know that there was actually no moon visible at all on the day she was found and named. We believe that her face was so fair and beautiful that they had to name her Mei Yue, “beautiful moon.” Isn’t she just perfect?

    What a dollbaby! So happy for you all! Can’t wait to see her in all those Tea Collection clothes and fancy headbands! I was just reading Psalm 127. “…sons are a heritage from the Lord, children a reward from Him. Like arrows in the hands of a warrior are sons born in one’s youth. Blessed is the man whose quiver is full of them…” Lydia fills your quiver! God is so good!

Hello

I overthink everything. This blog is a prime example. Make yourself a cup of coffee and sit down for a read. Actually, make that a pot of coffee. There’s a lot of overthinking here.
