Smile of Success

What do you see here?

I see a beautiful little girl who just finished her alphabet book, all by herself!! Yep, she has them all. She still needs a little help, but overall she has them.

Six months ago I would not have believed she would have them by this time. At that time I would have said her learning delays were almost 2 years behind, but now she is probably about a year behind her peers. We were unsure of how severely the malnutrition affected her ability to learn or if it would be permanent, but she is steadily progressing at her own pace and very proud of her accomplishment. Praise the Lord for this victory!

Now if you look closely in this picture you will notice she also lost a front tooth!!

She was sitting coloring a page and came out to me with a tooth. We knew it was loose, but considering how long it took her to get the other ones out, I was very surprised to see it today!!
