Faith is the substance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not yet seen. ~Hebrews 11:1

One of the funniest things I've seen!

One of my sisters is getting married at the beginning of October and I needed silver sandals to wear for the wedding.  I didn't have any, so I had to go hunting.  I got lucky and found a pair and when I got home, I set the box outside of the door to our bedroom, which is right off of our family room.  I turned around and was straightening up the family room and I saw Hadley going for the box of shoes.  Next thing I know, I turn back around and without any prompting this is what I see!  It would have amazed me in any setting but to know that just a month ago, we were in China and just 6 weeks ago, she was in an orphanage boggles my mind.  She's been through so much in her short life and it fills my heart to see how happy she is and how far she has come in such a short time.  Our lil man who is all boy decided he wanted a piece of the action too and hammed it up.  He used one of the couch arm covers as a hat.

I had so much fun watching them!  It made me think of a saying a friend of mine has..."Every crow thinks theirs is the blackest" It is SO true!!! I think its by Gods design that people feel that way about their children.  Nothing on this earth fills me up more than moments like this!  These two little miracles really make me look at life from an entirely different lens.
                                               
                     Hadley- "I'm pretty sure these are my size...."

Hadley- "Wyatt, I think I may need a little help with this...."

Hadley- "Ok, maybe they are just a half size too big...But I think I can make them work if I tie these two straps together"
Hadley- "Mom, I asked Wyatt for help and he took my other shoe...See, they don't fit him and not to mention, dad is not going to be happy about Wyatt putting on high heals!"
Wyatt- "Relax Hadley...I'm checking to make sure they're safe for you to walk in.  I don't want you to hurt yourself.  Plus, don't you remember mommy and daddy telling us to SHARE!"
Wyatt- "Look Hadley, I bet you didn't know you can use this end as a tooth pick! Cool!"
Hadley- "Great idea Wyatt!! I still had gram crackers in my teeth from our snack!...I knew you were good for something"
Wyatt- "I'm full of great ideas, Hadley...Just ask me!  Lets play hide and seek now.  You count and I'll hide..."

Wyatt- "She'll NEVER find me in here!"
