She's Amazing

Can you tell I am having a rough night by all the posts? Nothing like electrical shock type pain to interfere with your sleep!

The other morning when Bre had the house to herself from approximately 5:30 AM to around 11:00 got me to thinking.
I held my breath as I walked into the kitchen and living room area. I just knew it was a mess, that she had created some sort of disaster. The least I expected to find was she had used the wall as her personal coloring book. I was so shocked but happy to find nothing even out of place.
She really is a good little girl overall and she has adjusted so well to having us as her family.
Before we adopted I tried to read about every worst case scenario I could find. It isn't that I was expecting the worst but I did want to be prepared for it or at least what she threw at us.
She has had a few bumps along the way but nothing out of the ordinary or what we expected. Her main issue has always been food. Since the day we meet her and first feed her anything she has had to know that food is always available. It took months before she could walk around and play without at least holding a cracker in her hand. Now we all sit back and watch in amazement at how much her tiny body can consume in a day.
She also showed some post traumatic stress syndrome symptoms in the past that were quiet hard for her to overcome but she did in time with a lot of patience and work. There were also a couple of night terrors and she still doesn't sleep through the night.
Overall though we have been so lucky and so blessed. She is thriving and is such a happy go-lucky child. It has been almost three years since we first meet her and she has changed a lot. She has grown so much. I think she will always be incredibly slim but she has filled out and no longer looks thin. Her hair that was once dry and brittle now is thick and looks and feels like silk. Smart, she is so smart. I know there is no way I could have learnt a whole new language as fast as she did. Heck she even has the slang parts down too. She can count, knows all her numbers and most of her letters, can write her name, and sing many songs by herself. She picks up on everything going on around her.
To have went through all the life changes that she had to experience and to come out the other side smiling and singing is nothing short of a miracle. Simply put-she amazes me!
