"Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world." James 1:27 NIV

Please Meet Roselore!

I feel like a new mom introducing her new daughter to the world! My heart is bursting and I have tears in my eyes! This is Roselore, our newly sponsored child from Compassion International.

I am so in love!

She is one of 12 children that lives with their mother and grandfather in a small Haitian community on the southern side of the island.

I have spent months and years dreaming of this day, looking through countless pictures of these beautiful and amazing children wondering if there was one that God had in mind for us and then today I found her. Something in her face made it so I could not look away. I clicked to learn more and saw how large her family is, the situation of the area she lives in, and then that her birthday is this weekend and I just knew. Roselore is the one for us!

I cannot wait to get her packet and to begin getting to know her. Oh that first letter from her is going to be worth more than the largest diamond, or a vintage Chanel bag. I look forward to sharing her with everyone just as I do with my other 3 amazing kids.

Ok, can't type anymore through the tears.

I love you Roselore!
