This is Glory and while she really is this beautiful, this photo is deceiving. I don't love on Glory like this, ever. In fact until Katie (the very talented taker of this photo) asked for help in getting Glory ready for her blog photo the only interaction I had had with Glory was giving her morning medicine. The worst part of it all is that it has been a month since this photo was taken and I haven't loved Glory like this since.
In a world where caregivers are out numbered by children attention is to be fought hard for. Glory is quite and can't walk as well as her brothers and sisters. There is always someone who yells louder or commands attention better than Glory and so she misses out on the snuggles and kisses that every girl deserves.
There is more then one Glory. The children that don't get seen or that are hard to love. I am posting this photo as a reminder to myself. I cannot forget the look in Glory's eyes in this photo. She is a child who is known, loved and adored by Yahweh Roi, The God Who Sees. He has asked me to see Glory, not as one more child to care for, but as a daughter of The King, His Princess.
