Gift of Silver

This morning, as well as about a month ago, we received a gift of silver:
The gift????...=  Pictures   of our babes in Ethiopia!!!  These gifts were from traveling families who are adopting from the same orphanage, through the same agency as us.
Waiting families CRAVE these gifts as a pregnant mommy craves pickles, grilled cheese, chocolate, or whatever your "must have" is.
Now we await our gift of gold....that is our court date which will determine when we travel to meet them for the first time.  Followed by the gift of diamonds.....which will be when we pass court and add them to our family forever!!!
So what gift is more valuable, more beautiful than diamonds?  LORD JESUS of course. " Lord You are More Precious than Silver...."  Love that song.
Sorry...can't post these pictures until we pass court.
