The Last BIG STEP Before Her SURGERY ❤️

  • When we adopted Penelope from China 5 years ago, we began a multi-year process of repairing her cleft lip and palate and restoring her teeth. So much of that process has been a hurry up and wait, with surgeries and procedures and then "no let's wait until your jaw matures enough to fix the rest." Well, we are finally to this final stage of preparing for the big surgeries later this year. Penelope got braces this week! We couldn't be more excited for her, but she is definitely more excited than even we are! #familyvlog #parenting #adoption #bigfamily

      Right?? I feel like i noticed her settling into her God given femininity --and watched as she was then able to blossom with so much natural beauty. It really did come so naturally to her. Such a pretty lady!!!! Her heart has surely softened, its beautiful to see her ❤

    Special mention: the way Liam said "thank you" when Lincoln hugged him, just the way Stephen says..damnm..kids do be learning a lot from their parents' actions. Warmed my heart. And also, congratulations to Penelope. I also started my teeth fixing journey last month coz now I can finally afford it at the age of 25. Totally understand your excitement! ❤️ Lots of love from India!

    So Like couple years back I used to put subtitles because I couldn't fully understand Penny but after the surgery I didn't need them anymore and the fact that her English is near perfect now as well makes it even better! Also I love how she reciprocates the same energy to you guys when y'all mentioned she was amazing, very nice and beautiful soul right there!

    your children. Penelope is an example of your care. It showed in your faces sat in the car. Need I say more.
