Hats of Love~made by Alaina

Alaina has been busy making hats to raise money for our adoption. Oh, how I love this girl and her heart! She has made about 100 hats and has sold close to 60. She is selling them for $5 each or for every $5 donated she will donate one hat to Aliyah's orphanage. She wants her sister home more than anything!

She comes home everyday and in stead of playing she gets going on making more hats. God has blessed me with the most amazing children! Keep up the good work Alaina - we are so proud of you and your desire to make a difference!

"Fear not for I have redeemed you; I have summoned you by name; you are mine. When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and when you pass through the rivers, they will not sweep over you... For I am the Lord your God..
~Isiah 43:1-3

Syndactyly is a term to describe webbed fingers or toes. In most cases the webbing is only skin, but in some cases, the bone may be fused together. Surgery is performed to correct the condition.

Polydactyly literally means "extra digits." There may be an extra thumb, small finger, or, less commonly, an extra digit in the central part of the hand. Polydactyly is one of the most common congenital hand anomalies.

Microtia is an incompletely formed ear. It ranges in severity from a bump of tissue to a partially formed ear. In most cases, only one ear is affected. In that case, it is called Unilateral Microtia. If both ears are affected, it is called Bilateral Microtia. In addition to the physical characteristics, there is a possiblitiy of some or all of these problems: About a 40% reduction of hearing in the affected ear, problems locating the direction from which a sound comes and ear infections.
