Meet Little A

Yesterday around noon I got a call asking if we could

take in a 1 month old for a few weeks. I told them

we would love to, and then I was informed she was

at court now but I would get a call when court was

over. I tried to get as much ready, without making

it obvious to Neiah when she would get home from

school just in case the baby didn't come I didn't want

her to be disappointed.

At 4:30 I still hadn't gotten a call so 

I called CDA again to check in and see if

we for sure would be getting a baby that night, or

if plans had changed. I was told they had not and

at 5 we were called to come collect Little A from 

the CDA office.

Neiah was BEYOND excited that Jesus had

sent us a baby to care for. She ran right into CDA 

and I thought she was going to take the baby right

out of the social workers hands :)

 Neiah once more smoothly transitioned into the role

of big sister, holding, reading to, and singing to Little A

Little A arrived with a nasty chest cold, but Praise

Jesus thanks to the help of oils, and a humidifier,

she had a peaceful night sleep.

 Brita didn't know what to think of Little A. She

just continued to walk circles around her and every

once in a while would bark at her. :)

 We had Little A less then 24 hours, but Neiah

soaked in every possible min. she could loving on her.

So Thankful for a few hours to love on this little girl.

An added blessing to getting to love on Little A. Was when we

picked her up at CDA last night we got her from Mrs Henry (the head of

the CDA office in MV). She was the one who also picked her

up today to take her to Kingston. When she came (Along with

Ms Lyons who is now working with the kids in the court system and knows

 when kids get removed and are in need of placement.) both her and Ms

Lyons were able to go through En Gedi for the first time and were

so excited to see the new place, and how we are now better

able to accommodate babies. And also Mrs Henry could not believe

how much better (sick wise) Little A looked and sounded in just 

a short time with us.

Praise God for his healing over little A, and for continually providing 

steps forward for us.

Please be praying for Little A as she transitions into her

long term placement.

Thanks.
