WERE NEXT!!!

China has finished all the files up to March 14th, 2006....we are NEXT !!! 3 years later... I can't believe this is really happening. It feels almost surreal. We have so much to do, to prepare and get ready. Imagine I had all this time to do everything and now I am scrabbling like a crazy woman. I can't wait to see our little flowers face. I keep wondering how old she is, what does she look like, will she have lot's of hair like Angel did...most important...will she be a good sleeper??? Oh God.. please let her be a good sleeper!!! All the memories are flooding into my head of our journey with Angel. All the excitement and fears...be still my heart!!! I can't believe we are finally getting another baby.

I am really taking this opportunity to tell Angel how things happened when we got her and what to expect in China. I worry so much about how Angel will process all this. Her trip to China will undoubtedly bring up some issues. I pray daily that we all get through this well. She is so excited about getting her little sister. However, sharing Mommy and Daddy will not be easy for her. Angel is the most amazing little girl she is so loving and caring she is actually giving me strength through this.

This a recent conversation we had about getting Georgia Anastasia:

I said to her "Angel I hope Georgia will love us"

Angel said " She will Mommy"

I said "She will be scared, she doesn't know us, we will be strangers to her. She won't know that we have been waiting for her and that we have a cozy place ready for her at home. She won't know right away how much we love her and that we are her forever family."

Angel said " she will know Mommy that she will get a good family"

I asked "How will she know?"

Angel answered " All baby's know Mommy...I did!!"

Wow, What a Kid..and she's MINE!!! Thank You Lord.
