Found out today that Kahlia tested positive for both Giardia Lamblia and Ova & Parasite. Great- Just another thing to add to her list. Apparently not a single pharmacy in our area would fill the prescription for what she needed, so we had to go to the inhouse pharmacy at Bay Area Hospital. Not the "normal" pharmacy - the one that is for actual patients at the hospital. I guess they made an "exception" - crazy! So now she is on 3 medications - crazy x2!!
Today I asked Kahlia where my eye was, and she pointed to my eye. I thought, well maybe it was just a coincidence - so I asked her, "Kahlia, where's mommy's nose? She pointed to my nose!! I've been working on that with her - so MAYBE she knows them. I tried later, and she wouldn't do it - I don't know - it's a small step though - encouraging! She's learning to "high five" us, and laughs SO cute when I blow on her tummy. She is a joy to all of us - Brendon spent a good half hour with her on the couch - just talking and loving on her - what a blessing that is to a mommy's heart! :-)
It is here that I've been documenting our adoption story. It was a discouraging journey for many years, but we are now in the midst of an amazing story. Kahlia has blessed us beyond words. She has filled our hearts completely with who God made her to be, and none of us could imagine our life with out her. We are now a family of six and continue on with the journey we call LIFE. Colossians 1:17 - He is before all things, and in Him all things hold together.
She's doing so well! Consider how short a time she has been with you. Truly, her health and her personality are a miracle! I'm sure those intestinal bugs will be cleared up in no time. Just keep loving on her and God will take care of the details. :) She's so blessed to be a part of your family!
