Shae's log: mundane moments

Happy is turning into a little Rock Star! She is just such a joy to everyone who comes in contact with her. I have to say that she is kind of rude, mean, and generally unfriendly! Seriously. She only wants to be with her mommy! But still, people find her completely mesmerizing eventhough she treats people badly (she will grunt at them, hit, and scream if they get close! Its crazy!). I have never seen a ruder child get so much attention. But I know that she is rude only because she is afraid that I will leave her again. I think with time she will mellow. I can already see her softening a bit. Anyway, she is a complete hit around the campus of St. Jude and I am glad that she is loved by so many. All children need a lot of adults in their corner rooting for them! And Happy has a whole team! Anyway, here are some pictures of our random days together. I particularly like the picture where she is trying to eat corn on the cobb. She barely has teeth, but she is determined! That was a good day!!!!!

Shae, Amanda was the same way with similiar "rude" behavior for quite some time after we brought her home. She didn't even want Daniel and Misty to get near me which created quite a problem, espeically for Daniel (who was usurped as "baby" of the family by Amanda) since they happened to claim me as mommy too! You are wise to know that it comes out of insecurity and fear of abandonment. Jesus, bring peace to Happy's heart and a security that is foundationed in your love, and lived out in the love of Shae for Happy. Amen.
