January 6, 2008--Esther Day

Our sweet girl is now five years old!!

"Who knoweth whether thou art come to the kingdom for such a time as this?
Esther 4:14

Dear Esther,
Our prayer for you is that you will grow strong in the Lord and follow after your namesake of Queen Esther in the Bible. Like Queen Esther, you were born "for such a time as this." God brought you into this world knowing you would have a plan for your life, and what a plan it is! You have already overcome so much in your short life, and we pray you will use your life to bring glory to God. We pray that you would be influential in the life of others and be an inspiration your China sisters and brothers left behind, just like Queen Esther was to her people. You are a constant reminder of God's amazing grace and you bring us so much joy. Your happiness and sense of humor keeps us all laughing throughout the day.
We love you so much Esther Joy!

Interesting facts about Esther:
  • She is very flirtatious!
  • She is our youngest child to start reading
  • Home just three months from China, she was already fluent in English!
  • She tends to have a bit of motion sickness
  • She is a die-hard Hannah Montana fan
  • Hands down, the best eater out of our family!
