Oh baby!

It's true, it's true!
It's spreading like wildfire now...
WE ARE GETTING A BABY!!
I've been dreaming of this day for a long time. I've cried myself to sleep so many times wondering if it would ever happen, and now I cry myself to sleep again in gratitude and thankfulness that we get to experience adoption once more and be blessed with a daughter!!!
I can't even explain the emotion I feel in my heart right now. The instant we heard we had been selected immediate gratitude came to my heart. I'm overflowing with it and feel so much thanks to my Heavenly Father for granting the wish of my heart. I always had HOPE that it would happen and trusted in His will for me, but sometimes it was easier to say that then experience it. I knew the Lord would bless us according to our needs, but just what those were I didn't know!
It's apparent now.
We are soooooooooo excited. I can hardly stand it. It feels like a dream. We are praying for our sweet birth mom at this time that she can find the peace and courage to endure this experience. We have so much love for her because she is willing to sacrifice for US!
I've always dreamed of having a daughter, one I could dress in the latest styles with leggings and bows, pink from her head to her toes...
I just can't believe I really get to have it!!!
My baby girl is going to be a reality.
I'm so lucky.
I'm so blessed.
The wait has all been worth it.

Congratulations, Jill! Wow! I can't believe it! I am so happy for you guys. And a girl!!!!!!!! Perfect. I was going to ask when this little girl was coming, but I read a comment that said six weeks. Is that no time at all or will it be the longest six weeks of your life?

I'm so happy and excited for you. That is one lucky - and sure to be cutest dressed - little girl!
