Adoration



She's watching the patio door. She loves light. You can see the reflection in her eyes.

But it looks as though she's almost sad.

Tonight I watched her as she stared over my shoulder, away from the other six people in the room. She was watching her brother's pictures on the wall behind me. Naomi's heard about Joshua before. But tonight I told her about her brother again.

  1. I know I do not know your sweet family, but from pictures, I am convinced Naomi looks just like Joshua. It is uncanny to me, although as mommy, you probably think I am out of my mind. All three are adorable faces!

  3. I am sure she remembers Joshua... he probably held her hand before she came to earth to meet you.

  6. Her big brother is talking to her, and she hears him and she sees him, and feels him in the kisses of Oceana.

    I'm in LOVE with this photo! Of all 3 of your babes!

  9. She was probably looking at Josh and her angels. i remember my son was laughing like crazy at the front. Me and my son's nurse talked about how silly he was. I told her he was probably laughing at his angels. By that time he had stopped laughing, I looked up and said, "If it was ya'll angels making him laugh please do it again" and just like that started laughing again. =)
