Lynn Eileen Chicky LE says:Johanne, what a beautiful girl — definitely a true design of God!
I, too, remember when you first shared the happy news with us that Bailey was joining your family after the sad and sudden loss of your beloved Sacha. I looked back at Sacha’s photo and the earlier ones of Bailey just now. So generous of you to share them with us, Johanne! Enjoy your precious Bailey! 
BTW, love your component!!!
There’s nothing else like it!!!
