Beautiful Girl!
Hey everyone, it's Ondrea again! I could really get used to the fame and fortune of blogging for Gwen! :) I am linking to my blog, not only because I want everyone to know that I am famous by association (ha), but because most of you are probably asking, "Who in the world is this random person who keeps posting. I'm here looking for Gwen!" :)
I got the absolute privilege of spending a little time with Miss Maggie this morning and taking a few photos of her. She is SO stinkin' adorable! Even in her undies, ink markings all over her, and a mesh turban, she's just so precious. You can't look at her and not want to squeeze her.
Maggie is in great spirits. She was playing her brothers PSP, a gameboy, and a dress up doll all at the same time. Her bed was a treasure trove of trinkets. You can see from the photos that she didn't have alot of left over space for herself, but her pillows are propped in a comfy position, her feet are kicked back, and it's as if she is the most natural state of being. As if to say, "I was born to lay in bed, center of the universe, and have a staff to wait on my every need!" And you know what, she was! Because she is royalty, a daughter of the King! :)
See for yourself....

Have you ever seen a more precious site?
Feet kicked up, relaxed and ready for her next meal or visitor!
With a pink bunny one of the teachers sent her.
Talking to one of her many fans...
Gwen strictly forbid me to post any photos of her. You won't tell her will you?
(Sorry, it was such a sweet moment, I couldn't resist! Look at that adoring look on Gwen's face!)
See all her entertainment accessories? Even with all this stuff in the bed, at one point she rearranged everything very neatly and said to Gwen, "Momma, I made a spot for you!" :)
Doesn't she look amazing for having had major surgery yesterday!
Sorry for the crazy coloring of this photo, but Maggie had stamped the word "Adopted" all over her leg, just in case someone happened to miss it. And I tried to get the words to show up. If you look closely in the other photos, you can get the better affect. But Gwen said she tells everyone that she's adopted.... that's my girl! :)
Ephesians 1:5-6 The Message translation
"Long, long ago He decided to adopt us into His family through Jesus Christ. What pleasure He took in planning this! He wanted us to enter into the celebration of His lavish gift-giving by the hand of His beloved Son."
