"You've Got To Be Kidding Me..."

Okay - maybe we're a little biased, but pretty sure she is the absolute most adorable thing we've ever laid eyes on...

That is the most hilarious & precious picture. She looks like maybe she's got some funny secrets to share. Karlie gets that face a lot.

Each night before I go to bed
I fold my hands and bow my head
Praying for a family and the day she will come for me
I ask God to watch over my friends at the orphanage,
The place that I call home
Wishing we find families and rooms of our very own.
I finish my prayers and climb into bed
Hoping that God heard what I said.
My prayers usually turn out to be my dreams at night
Hoping she will be standing there when I wake to the morning light.
One very special morning, I will hear their call,
I jump out of bed and run down the hall!
Is it her, Is it her, is that why they’ve called my name?
Running I hear them shout “It’s her, it’s her, she finally came!”
Have all my prayers been answered, have all my dreams come true
There she is in front of me, Oh Mama! Oh Mama!! Is it really you?

“Yes, it is my darling, I’ve come to take you home,”
“I will love, protect and cherish and you will never be alone."
Mama looks at me so differently a look so new to me,
She touches me so gently, just as I dreamed it would be.

As I look into her eyes I watch them fill with water,
She embraces me and whispers, “I love you so my daughter”.
She takes my hand and I hold it tight,
I will never let it go, I hold with all my might.
Hand in hand we walk together,
No one needs to speak; we know this is forever.
And through our journey when we finally meet each other,
She will have found her dream and I will have found my mother.

Kids are always cute with glasses.

I think with the glasses she resembles Ed.

We are thrilled at your news and so excited for you! May God's protection be with you as you fly her home! She is so cute and I found it unbelievable how all those confirmations lined up at the perfect time to assure you that she was yours, exactly 9 months after you wrote that beautiful poem! Wow! Your story is so wonderful to read that it's hard not to cry when I read your blog!

Welcome to the family Little Eva! You look like you have some spunk!
