This morning, Amanda de Lange and a handful of volunteers, went to what we call the “Big O” in Xi’An China (otherwise known as the main orphanage) to see if there were any babies she could take back to her foster home. You see, Amanda doesn’t go looking for the cutest, healthiest babies they have. She goes with eyes and heart open to find the sickest, neediest babies in the orphanage. The babies who are not likely to receive the kind of necessary attention they need just to survive their first few months. Out of all of China’s unwanted ones, she seeks out those who need her the most. That’s why I love this picture so much. This morning, these babies were just seven of many at the orphanage, but not anymore. From here on out these babies will receive round the clock love and attention, nutrition, medical care and almost rock-star like status among Amanda’s fans and supporters all around the world. Once they have been nursed back to health, Amanda does what the orphanage often does...
Yeah! I am the WINNER!!

ReplyDeleteHi Linda. If I'm a winner, it is only because YOU'RE a WINNER in my eyes. We will have to get together sometime soon... After the Home & Garden Show, and after I finish Brad's Scrapbook (maybe before then, though). I did start it today, though.
Can you please tell me what time my ward meets for Sacrament, and Relief Society?
I tried calling you on Saturday after DAR meeting. Boy you missed a wonderful meeting. But you should phone ROSE MITCHAM at 425-835-0169 and try to set-up an appointment with her to figure out your next step to becoming a member. Gee! Sisters in a wonderful group! Want to hear from you really soon! Love, Candy
