Owls In Action

I received permission last night to share some photos with you.  Katie Musser was the second child to ever receive an owl from the Owls for Orphans project.  Katie was adopted and brought out of "The Bad Place" - the orphanage where our Miah is now.  Susanna's blog is where we found our Miah, so the Musser family will always hold a special place in our heart which is why I wanted so badly to send Katie an owl.  And because it's not enough that ONE adorable child has an owl, Susanna ordered one for their daughter Verity as well.  So know you get to see pictures of TWO adorable kids with owls.  It just might make your day!  

These pictures have been taken with permission from Susanna's blog post HERE.

Brace yourself for the cuteness.  (I should also add that these pictures left tears streaming down my face.  If you've read Katie's story you'll understand why.)

Sweet Katie, with the best smile in the world.  Friends, less than ONE year ago she was trapped in a crib with no food and no love.  Look what a family does!!!!  LOOK!!!  

And here comes the Verity cuteness:

Words aren't enough to explain the joy in my heart after seeing these photos.  Everyone who is helping with Owls for Orphans - THIS is why.  

"Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these."  Matthew 19:14

God's heart is with children.  Especially those the world sees as "worthless".  They are not worthless!  They are MORE than worthy of love, joy, family, and a little something soft to hug.  

Thanks again, Susanna, for letting me share your sweet girls.
