MEYLING! MEYLING! MEYLING!

Meyling Zamora-Guido, our youngest girl, SHE IS FIVE, LOOKS LIKE TWO BUT SHE HAS BECOME A STAR OF MERRIMENT AND LAUGHTER LIGHTING UP OUR HOME!

She came back today from the hospital with the good news that the diet given to her since she came to our home last November 5th. 2007 had had its effect and now she could undergo thyroid treatment to see if she can grow a little bit.
Well, it seems that she cannot talk clearly but she understands clearer what is going on in her life. She has been a bubbling explosion of laughter, merriment and joy all day long.
She came to my office as she is getting used to so she can watch me working at the computer. She has a fixation with the images. This time she saw some sunglasses on it and whalla; she sat on it and put them on.

I was feeling down yesterday and was resting but at dinner time Gladys came to my bedroom to wake me up so I could witness her praying and giving thanks for the food.

Our girls one at a time and at every meal use cards with Bible verses and comments that they use to give thanks before they sing “for this bread, for this gift, we bless you Lord. Amen” Well, Meyling, who is starting to speak Spanish, usually only says Amen but this time had taken the card and started saying without stopping, e, e, e, e, e… leading the thanks and with a shout ended with a loud Amen.

Truly, truly, these are the things that lift you up and keep you going on. These are the encouraging blessed messages from the Lord.

Enjoy the photos and the amateur digital camera video.

What a difference from November 5th. 2007, just 2 months and a half ago!

Dearest Emilio,
Isn't it amazing how the very looks and appearances of the children change as they find a loving home!! I remember Francella and the changes with her over those first six weeks I was staying with you ! It's amazing that you are faithfully carrying on the work of serving God and this new generation, praise God !! Love nicky xx
