Talking Finally our turn

I never thought I would get to say it--but we leave Sunday to get our daughter, who just turned 14 months.

It has been one of the longest journeys of our lives. I seriously wondered if it would every happen. We just kept praying and holding on, one day at a time.

Please continue to keep us in your prayers. We have missed so much time with our baby and not had a smooth adoption experience.

Allesia

Congratulations!!!! The wait is Finally over!!! I'm so happy to hear good news for a change. Fourteen months is a long time to wait to finally bring your baby home. July will be five months for us, and it seems like an eternity already. Your daughter is absolutely adorable. Enjoy!!! Like that will be hard. : )
I pray everyday for everyone going through this difficult waiting period. God willing- everything will be worked out soon and we all will have our children home.

She looks just like a girl version of our son! That amazes me... of course she's beautiful... maybe someday she'll marry a three month younger man????

Congratulations!!!
