Can I have a moment?
Ok, I am really needing a moment here. I have no idea how so many people have gotten through the waiting process of adoption, its hard! I am just aching tonight to be with our little baby girl, I miss her terribly and was spoiled by so many days over the holiday of seeing her regularly. Its now been since Saturday night and I am restraining myself from jumping in the car right now to get up there. I am so ticked that I didn:t take more pictures of her over Christmas too, I was so in the moment that I did not realize how much I would want to see her face now that I am back home. I am kicking myself now, I have NO pictures of her and I together at Christmas. Gulp, so sad. Anyone in my family, I invite you to go and see her tomorrow, take oodles of pictures and email this poor little mama… additionally if you took any pics of her on Christmas PLEASE send them on to me, I really need them right now.
On a sweet note, it seems that I am not the only one who is missing somebody. Our little girl has been spending lots of time in front of the window watching for us over the past few days. Her foster parents said that she jumps whenever the phone rings and says ME ME!!! thinking that it is us calling her! MELT MY HEART!!
And one more cute story - she was eating breakfast this morning and made a huge fuss about having the picture book of our family at the table with her. When her foster mom turned around our little doll was feeding the picture of Nathan and I with her spoon!! I guess she wanted us to join her for Breakfast. Sweet Little Miss - I am feeling the love!
I’d give anything for you to have her home with you right now. It is so hard to wait. We will add you to our prayers to handle this time challenge and to get her there quickly. I’m so happy for you.
melt your heart? I’m in a puddle over here! i can’t wait for her to be all yours!
This just in…my Mom is on the case and is going to see our doll tonight for a little visit. I cannot wait to hear all about it, and hopefully get an email with pictures too.
Thank you so much Sheila for your comment. You guys are so sweet and kind to include our family in your prayers. We love your family!!
Liz - you are so cute. Thank you for making this process even more fun with your enthusiasm. I love you!
I am in love, as I am sure many other people in the family are that have met her? I cant wait to see her again either, I am excited for you to have her.
Oh she is ADORABLE!!! Daria, I’m so excited for you! Love the pictures. Love the stories. So thrilled for you, and so jealous at the same time. We need to talk. I need more stories. Good luck with the paper work and waiting.
Hi Daria,
I hope you remember me from the days of when you had the message board on Boutique Cafe. I had and still have a website that sells Nursing Blankets and had two little boys who are now getting to be big boys! Brennan is 9 yrs old and Jamison just turned 4 yrs old.
I just wanted to give some xoxoxo from one adoptive Mama to another - we adopted our daughter last February when she was born and although we didn’t have to wait to take her home I totally get where you are coming from! I can’t wait for her to be your arms as you will soon find out that having a daughter is so different than having boys! I look forward to hearing of the many adventures that will be coming your way!
Until then, hang on Mama! Your sweet baby girl will be in your arms in no time and you will feel complete as I did. Being an adoptive parent is so fulfilling that it blows your mind. Welcome to this wonderful world-?
