Emily,
Congratulations!!! We are with AWAA and received our LOA today too! Maybe we will travel in the same group to go get our girls. Our daughter is in Guangxi and is 14 months 3 weeks. I wish you all the best during this wonderful time.
My Sweet Emily and Jay,
As I sit this morning at 4:25 AM I could not sleep for thinking about what is to happen. Your turn has finally arrived to go to China. As I write, I cry...tears of overwhelmeing joy for our family. You are the best mommy and daddy that Ashley could have gotten because God has, and will always be, your cornerstone. Thank you for enduring ALL the paper work, the WAIT for the referral, the WAIT,WAIT, and more WAIT for the LOA to arrive. God has grown all of us because of this adoption. My arms ache to hold her, just as they did when you were pregnant with Avery, Ally, and Annalyse. One day Ashley will know Jesus...what an eternal gift you will afford her. I love you both more than I can say...I am soooo blessed to have been chosen to be YOUR mom...you make my heart smile.
To God be the glory...
Mom
She is just beautiful!!!
Maybe we will be traveling together???
Congratulations and rejoicing with you on our RAs!!!!
Faithfully in Him,
Dawn AWAA
Waiting for Leah

Blessings,
Cheryl
