Our little Ella is feeling better

I hope this isn't too confusing that I've been talking about two little girls with similar names. Our daughter is Ella Rose, our friend's daughter is Emma Hope. Both have Down syndrome, both were adopted, both have recently been through surgery. Our daughter's surgeries were not serious, but she's taken a while to be back to her "old" self again. I'm happy to announce that we have our little girl back since about Sunday afternoon, complete with appetite! It's so good to see her smiling, laughing and being her silly self again! So many blessings to be thankful for!

Okay, I'm thinking this might be Lora in the top photo? I just wanted to say Ella looks like her little "Mini Me" in this photo. She looks just like her big sister.:):)

It's so nice to see Ella grinning and feeling better! :)
It must be wonderful having Lora around, too! :) She seems like she's So Good with the little ones! :) It's very apparent that they adore her! :)
BTW, my dear son-i-l, who served his mission in Tiawan, listened to Lora speaking in Mandarin, for me, to let me know what she'd said! :) Tell Lora that he was impressed with her language skills! :)

I'm so glad Ella is feeling better! Isn't it great when they respond to their name! Zech seems a little better, but I think he'll need tubes.
