Excitement Grows



Each day feels like Christmas.  We keep getting more and more gifts in the mail from friends out of our state, even out of our country!  Our baby is so incredibly loved by so many people.  It's a feeling that is incomparable for me.

Tomorrow is another doctor's appointment.  I'm always anxious on the way, and then once there, hearing that rhythmic sound...it's almost meditative.  It's calming and reassuring.  The last time we heard her heartbeat, we realized that we were sitting there with our child.  It's kind of surreal when you think of it that way.

Tonight I put away more onesies, sleepers and unbelievably tiny socks.  The room is so colorful, warm and bright.  I go in there several times a day and at night I spend quite a bit of time just sitting there, looking around.  This time I turned off the light and prayed.  I pray that Holly is healthy, that our baby is strong, that the adoption goes exactly as we intend and plan.  Most of all I can't wait to hold her.  I can't even imagine how that will feel.  So many years of crying, praying, begging...wondering what we were doing wrong.  Wondering if it would ever happen.  And now we are just 6 weeks away from bringing her home forever.

God is good AMAZING.
