For Ally Jade

Ally,

We already love you more than you will ever know and can't wait to bring you home.

We have a senior

We are so proud of our little man!

The things I did not know

I did not know how hard it would be to come home and leave her there.
Or that when I would hear a baby cry in Walmart that sounded so much like her it would make me feel so sad or that every time I smell baby lotion I would think of how she smelled.I have looked at her pictures and videos so much I know them all by heart.When I left Russia I feel like I left half of my heart there and I am counting down the days until we can be together again.

Growing up too fast

2 weeks feels like a year

 

May you be safe and sleep soundly through the night,
May you be safe as you wake to the morning's light.

May you feel my love from so far away,
May it comfort and protect you throughout each day.

I will pray for you my little one
Until our time of waiting is done.

I will pray that the Lord keep you safe from harm,
Until the child of my heart becomes the child in my arms.
