Children´s Day

Then people brought little children to Jesus for him to place his hands on them and pray for them. But the disciples rebuked them. Jesus said, “Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these.” When he had placed his hands on them, he went on from there. Matthew 19:13-15

On October 12th we celebrate Children´s day in Brazil. It is a special day when children receive gifts and there are also parties with lots of toys and fun activities for them (at schools, churches, etc)

It is also a day to remember children´s rights and to fight so that all their rights may be respected. It is a basic right that every child must have safety and special care before and after birth.

We thank God for spend this Children's Day with our beloved Vitoria.

We spent a quiet day at home, but there was present and lots of fun. Check it out:

She won a strawberry-shaped house full of balls!

We also thank God for another month which was completed this week with our little girl! 21 months of life outside the womb.

Each day is a gift we do not deserve and for which we thank so much. We want to make every second worth it, loving her with all our hearts and showing everyone how precious the life of every child is, no matter how long he/she can live or how many disabilities he/she may have. It is worth loving and wait!

Congratulations beloved Victoria, you are the most precious treasure that we received from God in this life!

She was having very good days, and eating much better. But yesterday she woke up VERY upset. Three days ago a big molar began to tear the gums (the upper right), and yesterday another molar also began to appear (the upper left). As theese teeth are big, it is very painful and she is crying and complaining a lot.
We hope she feels better soon.
