how?
How do you miss someone you've never met? I dunno, but I sure miss you baby.... so in honor of your Mama's tears, I give you a poem I found...
I didn't give you the gift of life,
But in my heart I know.
The love I feel is as deep and real,
As if it had been so.
For us to have each other
Is like a dream come true!
No, I didn't give you
The gift of life,
Life gave me the gift of you.

oh my!
The rumors just keep going! Someone on APC said that their agency told them Friday that they expect June and at least part of July's referals. I dont know what to think - I'm excited and cautious at the same time... but I know that God has a plan in all of this. I have to trust that he knows what he's doing and is taking care of you.
I had a thought the other day that you might have been born in August, Aubree.... I dont know why, its just a feeling I had... I'm anxious to find out everything about you... I miss you so much and love you more!
I think Mama's going to have a coronary!
I'm expecting to get you're referral in April, Aubree.... this has been the plan now for the last 5 months. There are rumors that Mama's best laid plans are about to go poofy in her face! There are 3 rumors circulating around the Yahoo Groups this week:
Rumor 1 - no change in plans. June will come in Feb, July will come in March, and August will come in April.
Rumor 2 - June and July come together in Feb and August comes in March = OH MY GOSH!!
Rumor 3 - June comes in Feb and July/August comes in March = OH MY GOSH!!
Mama and Pater thought we had more time but we'll take the blessings we are given!! If I can get you home just one month sooner than I shall! New house be darned! Your Auntie Sis can get all of our stuff moved and put away while we go and get you home! Never mind she has to wrangle 1 bird, 2 kids, 4 cats (2 of them ours), and 5 dogs (2 of them ours)!! :)
nursery redo!
Well Mama's sweet little Peanut.... Pater and I had your nursery all done. Paint, border, pictures hung - it was awesome! BUT now we're going to have to do it all over again!
We found a new house to live in - much MUCH bigger and closer to Grammy, Auntie Sis, TQ, and MC. We're gonna have a lot of fun living there - I really hope you like it! We will move probably right before we receive your referal and will have everything hopefully organized before you come home :)
Love you sweetheart! :* [ ]
thinking of you....
This is a poem about waiting for a little boy, but I thought it was pretty even though I'm waiting for you Miss Aubree! Just insert GIRL where BOY resides :)
Half A World Away
By Jill Work
A half a world away
Sometimes it seems we're so far apart
But a half a world away
Is not too far for a journey of ther heart
My little one, my bundle of joy
I'm waiting for you
My precious son, my baby boy
I know you're waiting too
A half a world away
A child waits for a family of his own
While a half a world away
A family waits to come bring him home
My little one, my bundle of joy
I'm whispering a prayer
My precious son, my baby boy
I hope to soon be there
I hope that we
will no longer be
a half a world away.
