My sweet Lettie

Here is a picture of the kids with Lettie. For those of you who don't know, Lettie was an intern at the Home of God's Love. She took care of Lilly as if she was her own for 5 months. She did her job so well that Lilly was quite attached to her. When I went to feed Lilly, she was so used to laying in Lettie's left arm that she didn't want to take the bottle from me. Lettie had a way with all the babies. She would very calmly take care of at least 3 babies at a time. I would watch her in awe. She is awesome. Travis and I both told her that if we were independently wealthy, we would move her in to be a nanny. Not that we need one, but so she could have a job that she loved and she could stay with Lilly. (She probably gets that all the time!) This picture was taken at Chinese New year 2008. When Lettie picked up Lilly, Lilly looked at her for a minute and then got so excited. So excited that she clawed poor Lettie's face. You can see how happy she is in this picture. I can't imagine Lilly even remembering Lettie as young as was. Lilly hasn't before or since acted that way, when she is in someone else's arms. So here's to Lettie. We miss you and hope to see you soon.
