She is, truly, the cutest infant I have ever seen. She is absolutely beautiful!
Our dear friends had been praying for the opportunity to adopt for the last year. In the spring, they found out they had a little boy waiting for them in Haiti who is already 2 years old! Everything happens so slowly over there that they will not be able to have their little guy home for another year; all the same, it is very exciting! Here is a picture of their handsome little man.
In July, they received a phone call saying a baby girl was just born the day before and the very young birth mother was interested in their profile. Everything ended up panning out and Genevieve was home them a couple weeks later and then totally finalized in November!
I made this blue little pixie hat for her with a crocheted rose on the side. It was my first time crocheting and it was fun to make this little flower for her.
Genevieve's birth mother was asking Mary for her intercession during her labor and the baby's birth. At the same time, the parents who adopted her were praying the Rosary also asking for Mary's intercession to the Lord that his will be done with regard to any possibilities of adopting. It is appropriate to introduce our little God daughter on Our Lady of Guadalupe's Feast day today!
Here is a picture of Belle, the big sister in the family, with her new little sister.
We are so excited to watch this sweet girl grow up in her new family and to be part of her life. Faustina calls Genevieve her 'God-sister' and is quite protective of her. She is such blessing!
