Goodye sweet girls.

This weekend we said goodbye to two of our babies. Both of them will be staying here in South Africa with families that are local.  It’s nice to know that they will be keeping their South African culture. There is just something special about both local and international adoptions. But the two girls that left are best suited for a local adoption.

N is and always will be an adventurer. She would always be the first to break out of the Grubs room. She even made it outside by the pool a couple times. She was the reason I would wear a towel as an apron during bath time. She LOVES to splash. And nothing and no one could stop her. She always made a swimming pool on the floor of the bathroom. She has one of the cutest smiles and almost always showed it for a picture. She is a girl that needs attention. And Lucky her she got a mom, dad and a big sister. She will get all the attention she wants.

B is clever. She is also a bit of a trouble maker. Always the first to run away. We put shoes on her that squeeked when she walked. Not to track her down but because it was funny. Her first words were “stop it” I suppose because she heard them so much from the volunteers. She is a bit older. I am so happy that she was able to get a family. The older they are the harder it is. But her mom is perfect for her. Truly an African mama. B will grow up to be just like her. What a perfect match.

I know that both these girls are happy in their new homes with their new families starting their new lives. But TLC wont be the same without them. We have three more leaving next week.
