Ruthie~ LITTLE SWEETHEART. She is also the oldest of the younger children. She is quiet, determined, gentle and loving. She is stubborn but usually obedient. She enjoys being alone and seeking out new adventures. She doesn't talk much but she has the sweetest voice, loves to sing and has an AMAZING smile. Due to being abandoned for the first year of her life and lying somewhat unattended to in harsh circumstances Ruthie developed some speech impediments that we are working on overcoming.
