You are "Ours"

I finished her baby blanket

When the phone rings and it is the adoption agency.......you answer.  The call came at 8:30 this morning.

The adoption agency was calling to give us the good news.  That critical milestone letter, had been received.  Up to this point there has been no paperwork linking us with the baby.  Just a baby on the other side of the world, a baby that has been stealing all of our hearts inch by inch.  A baby that we knew a lot about, but had no rights or ties to.  Maybe she would be part of our family, maybe she would not.

All I remember is telling myself "breath, you are not breathing"  then a warm wash of relief flooded my body.

There is still a lot of work to do and a lot of waiting expected, each milestone will triumphant!
