Here she is- Mary Alan!
Kelly and Mary Alan. Proud Daddy!
Michelle, Kelly, and Annabeth went to Mary Alan's foster home today. They FINALLY got to hold their precious little girl. To see her, to touch her, to smell her. Not just look at a picture of her. I can't even begin to imagine what all they are feeling right now but I can tell you that when they texted the picture of her to me, I was bawling. I had to retype my reply several times before I could send it. Michelle had texted me 45 minutes before they were going to be picked up to let me know they were about to leave. She said she was so excited, she was shaking. I can only imagine. If you can't tell, I am elated and I hope the days go by super fast.
16 Days To Go
Mary Alan and Michelle. Very thankful she isn't screaming. Don't think I would have posted that.
If I haven't said it, I am blessed to have this woman as my sister. She has grown so much through this adoption process. She keeps telling me how God has been teaching her over and over again to wait on His perfect timing. That applies to everything, not just adoption. No matter what you are going through, God has got it and He will handle all the details. His timing is PERFECT!
Melody what a sweet post. I do know that feeling~it is an amazing experience. It is the same as waiting for your new baby to be born but so different at the same time. It is such a sense of relief after waiting and waiting and waiting!!!! I am so excited to have another Chinese princess in our midst. I cannot wait for Sophie to meet her. Sophie has already asked for a little sister~maybe Mary Alan could just fill that spot! :)
