Last night Izabella and I were having a fun little chat about this and that. When she said something hilarious. She's obsessed with brothers and sisters--as you know by previous post. Here's what she said.
"I'm going to have a brother and a sister. Well maybe not a brother. But a little sister. She's in China. We'll just go get her. But I'm not going back to China. She's at the Honda Dealer!"
The other day we were visiting our dear friends Zola and Gary in Elm Creek. I was helping Zola on her computer--and Izabella was fluttering around us. When she stopped and played with my hair as she said, "I love you Mommy. I'm going to have a little brother." Zola said, "You are?" She said, "Yes. He's in China. We'll just go to China and BRING HIM HOME. But I'm not going back to China."
And one last cute story.
We have so many sweet fellow adoptive families that have become friends--although we have never met some of them. Several of them are in the process of going back to China to bring home their second child. So, we have been praying for these families and children every night. One of the children we've been praying for "Little Chloe's" family went to China a couple weeks ago to meet her and bring her home--they are on their way home as I type this.
This is how prayer time went the day I told her Chloe was meeting her parents and would be home soon!
Izabella prayed, "God Thank you for Hope, Sarah, Joshua and Ruby find Mommy and Daddy soon!"
I said, "Don't forget Chloe! Chloe needs your prayers too."
Izabella replied, "Silly Mommy. Chloe doesn't need any more prayers. She has her Mommy and Daddy now. She's not in China anymore and she even has two sisters!"
Ahhhhh....out of the mouths of babes!

Izabella has such a sweet, soft heart! Maybe she DOES have a sibling waiting :-)
