Should we tell her?

Common sense tells us that there will be some things in this life that Tavi John will just not be able to do. However, she doesn't have any idea of her limitations... and she never ceases to amaze her mama!

I have told you all about Tavi before. How she was born at 27 weeks gestation. How she weighed under 1 1/2 lbs. How she had 4 blood transfusions. How she is completely blind because of her premature birth. How she has been in an orphanage her whole life, until joining our family almost a month ago. And how I just think the world of this little girl that refused to let the world win! [Thanks to the will of her Heavenly Father!]

She LOVES, LOVES, LOVES to RUN! By the time I actually thought to tape this video we had been playing this game for 20 minutes or so... she was getting tired, and a little silly! But oh my, she was just having a ball!

And just in case you are wondering, it's not in fast forward! :)

  4. that made my day to watch her run with such joy! One thing I have learned from kids with special things is to find joy in the little things. My husband said that he is not ready to adopt and I am crushed! I feel so strongly about this but, I can't do anything I don't understand. I can't wait to read more posts about your awsome family
