Reagan - 14 mos.

Reagan is one extremely blessed little girl....you see, she just came to America last month after being adopted by her new family. Not only did she gain a wonderful set of parents, she also got two big brothers. Reagan wasn't sure what to think of my camera and we had a hard time getting her to crack a smile (she finally did and wouldn't you know, it was while she was safe and secure in her mommy's arms). But considering all that she's been through in her short life and hearing how her parents rescued her from the deplorable living conditions at the Russian orphanage, I think Reagan did remarkably well. She's a sweet, inquisitive and active little girl who is now being showered with love by her new family and is thankfully and surprisingly healthy, despite her rough start. Reagan's story reminds me of God's promise to us..."For I know the plans that I have for you", declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future". Jermemiah 29:11. God has great plans for this precious little girl and I can't wait to see all that He has in store for her!
