Miss Julia

Yesterday I cried.

Not once but several times.

The good kind of cry. 

The overwhelmed with emotion cry.

It was good.  It was healing.

I want to share but not today. 

Later - another day -when it isn't quite as overwhelming.

When I can find the words.

Today I am resting.  Sitting with Miss Julia.   Cuddling her.  Holding her.  Stealing kisses.  Rejoicing that she is here.  Safe.  Loved.  Gaining weight.  Rejoicing because for a brief time I even got to hold her brother.  He even let me steal kisses from him.  Adopted from the same place.  Another Aaron.  My cup overflows.

Tomorrow - two boys - two different countries - two courts.  Please pray.

  1. What an emotional time for you and yet such an incredible time, loving on two little ones. Praying for both adoption situations. Hugs

  4. Please give Julia a hug from this Arky granny who has followed their story for a long time now. I wish I was closer so I could help rock and comfort her. I would be so glad to help.
