For this week's FFF, I am posting pictures of Sophie and Olivia. Some of you know the incredibly story of these two little girls... born one week apart in Guatemala and living the first months of their lives as sisters in the same foster home. Both babies came home to families living less than 30 minutes apart in KY! Olivia's mom and I marvel all the time how wonderful God was to match these little girls up with the perfect families!
Olivia is spunky, happy and very outgoing and has curly hair just like her mommy. Her family is loud and fun and rambunctious with three big brothers that just love to throw her around and hear her squeals of delight. Sophie is tranquil, sweet and shy and loves being treated like the princess of her castle. One of her favorite things is to crawl up into your lap and read a quiet book or play with a toy and sits back to take everything in.
We love getting the girls together and love that God gave them this special connection. I know it was all in His plan all along, we are blessed to have been recipients of these miracles. Here are a couple pictures of the girls from this week when we got together for a little playdate and to exchange Christmas presents.

lovely pictures. It is amazing that they are so close to each other. What a lovely bond for them to have in later life.
Some of the children will be available for adoption eventually, but not right now. If you go to the Kids International link on my site, it will have more info.
I forgot to add that Sabrina is one of the children who lives in the squatter village outside of the children's home, so she is not up for adoption. However,those kids need prayer too. The poverty they live in is beyond most anything that you will see in the U.S.
awww!! It is so sweet to see them playing together! I hope they stay friends a long time! It is so cool how it everything worked out!
Can we be linked too?

What a wonderful story! I had no idea - the Lord works wonders. Please link my post - it's a special Christmas theme! On a different note - how do you get Sophie's hair to lay so perfectly? You can tell me, you use a straightening iron, don't you??
