Our agency called about 9:15am with the news that our TA has arrived! She asked me to grab a calendar so we could plan some tentative dates. I won't post our travel dates until they are confirmed, however let me just tell you I have never been so excited to be rushed and overwhelmed. Good thing I work good under pressure! I'm so ready to go!!

The Legacy Of An Adopted Child
Once there were two women who never knew each other. One you do not remember, the other you call Mother.
Two different lives shaped to make you one. One became your guiding star, the other became your sun. The first one gave you life, and the second taught you to live it.
The first gave you a need for love. The second was there to give it.
One gave you a nationality. The other gave you a name. One gave you a talent. The other gave you aim.
One gave you emotions. The other calmed your fears. One saw your first sweet smile. The other dried your tears.
One sought for you a home that she could not provide. The other prayed for a child and her hope was not denied.
And now you ask me, through your tears, the age-old question unanswered through the years. Heredity or environment, which are you a product of? Neither, my darling. Neither. Just two different kinds of Love.

An invisible red thread connects those who are destined to meet, regardless of time, place, or circumstance.
The thread may stretch or tangle, but it will never break.

I prayed for this child, and the LORD has granted me what I asked of him. ---1 Samuel 1:27

And whoever welcomes a little child like this in my name welcomes me. --- Matthew 18:5

Of all the rights of women, the greatest is to be a mother. --- Lin Yutang
