True smile

Yup! It's official...Ellie gave us her first true smile today! We wouldn't have believed it, but she gave us several :) Ohhh how we appreciate moments like this!

And yes, praise to God! Her fever has broken! It appears the antibiotics we brought are working...she is much happier today and has already had 3 bottles (way more than any other day)...

And thank you to the Berg's...we found a Pizza Hut...to which Ellie is blowing raspberries over--we will take that as a sign of a future pizza fan..

Today we also visited the Flying Tiger museum (history stuff and sadly I did not pay attention--hey, I had the smiles of a beauty to focus on)...a master artist was there and quickly painted a picture of peonies-beautiful...he then inscribed it with Eliana's name, written in Chinese and for a fee-- :) we will be bringing it home.

Thank you all for the prayers...as a dear friend of mine says, prayers are the wind beneath our wings...and thanks to all of you-we are flying!
