A wise friend send me an email and told me to stop and count my blessings, so here it goes..
* Aliette is safe and alive and has the necessary papers to come home
* An USCIS caseworker has moved mountains, assuring that MDA has access to the embassy
* The orphanage director has confirmed the children's embassy appointments for Tuesday Feb. 9
* I haven't cried in two days
* A friend from school gave me the most beautiful almost brand new Britax car seat!!
* My family has embraced Aliette and can't wait until she is home
* Olivia's cold is getting better
* I've completed all the grades, midterms, progress reports and have left detailed notes for the sub. I've talked to student's parents and even cleaned my desk.
* This adoption journey has touched the lives of so many: I can feel the prayers lifting me up
* Church community who are praying her home longing to hear those squeaky shoes
* Carpets that sparkle
* I know in my heart and soul I will be holding my second blessing sometime soon.
I am so blessed to be the mother of two beautiful daughters. One from China and another from Haiti. Read about our life together as a forever family
