    Cannot imagine not celebrating her birthday, I am sure on some level she understands something special is happening.

    I was watching Izzy eating her ice-cream. It struck me what beautiful healthy hair she has and how much healthier and happier she is all around. Thank you for taking her out of that orphanage 💜 Beautifully little girl 💜

    I love because you choose Izzy...children with a condition have in general no chance to
    be adopted. But every child earn it!!!
    The letters warm up my heart...so wonderful!!

    Happy Happy Birthday precious lzzy!! I can't imagine you not celebrating her birthday. God has given her life, just like all of us, so if we celebrate ours, there is absolutely no reason why Izzy's birthday should not be celebrated. Thank you and your family for loving her and caring for her the way she deserves. Blessing galore.

    Happy birthday Miss Izzy! You’ve come such a long way and I’m so proud of you and all your hard work and accomplishments!♥️♥️♥️ Just wanted to share one of my family’s birthday songs with you 😊 “As years go by they seem to do the nicest things for you, for every time you add one more, you’re twelve months dearer than before! A very happy birthday, a very happy birthday, a very happy birthday especially for you!”♥️ “Oh somebody had a birthday, our dear little Izzy here! Kind Father in Heaven bless her, through out the coming year!”♥️ Love you lots Izzy! From our family in Utah ♥️

      Of course you celebrate her birthday. Because you understand and God would slap you for not! There are rules of being a human being and how we treat other human beings. Izzy is adorable and I remember the first day when Stan was holding her at the orphanage and she has come amazingly far and she knows what a birthday is even though she can’t say it. Just look at her smile. Shes adorable.

      I don't know why people think that disabled children should not be adopted. God created her the way he intended for her to be.l think she is precious. I'll keep Praying for ALL of you guys. In Christian Love, Judy 😀❤💜💛💙

    We also have an adopted differently abled now adult. I would have never skipped his birthday when he was young. When these special children come into our families they should be treated and celebrated as the other children in the family. There is no doubt in my mind that she did realize that her birthday was a very special day for her.

  • @cathyaddison26
    @cathyaddison26 ปีที่แล้ว +7

    It makes me so angry when people say things about children with disabilities/specialneeds that they are this or that...my husband had a brother with a disability his birthday was always celebrated they might not know but they do have feelings and understand the love and happiness that surrounds them..All children are a blessing from god.🥰

    Please do not be affected by other peoples perception snd criticisn about what is appropriate or not for your child. You are doing an unimaginably super job and it is a joy to see her smile.And she DOES understand certain input. Its clear to see. You are great pe. ople. I am not religious but like to give you both big hugs. Mother nature smiles at you. Xx❤❤❤

    WHY WOULD YOU NOT celebrate her birthday???? My goodness. This is a child of God. We have absolutely no clue what she understands or doesn't understand. If nothing else, this shows the other children that everyone deserves to celebrate. Everyone is special. Good for you and your husband and your family. May our Almighty God richly bless all of you.

    Isabel you are a blessing to my life in far away Bavaria 🥰. I just love to watch you and sometimes try to imagine how I would feel, see, smell, giggle in your shoes. Your family's love and Jesus in and through them heals your heart, soul, body, mind and spirit. Whished I could see your dreams at night. You are a sparkling star ✨️ in many people's lives. And guess what..sometimes I am flipping my arms too, due to a crah in my metabolic system after some operations. Actually they flip me as they flip you. I bet inside of you, it is a totally different story right? 😉
    And who knows if you had ever been loved SO MUCH in China as your Felts Family does in the US? In heaven Izzy will say: JESUS, It was awesome I FELT 😁 and TASTED 🍨🎂🧁 your goodness down there. Thanks for giving me a mummy and a daddy 💞
