She's. Sweet.

My mama heart is overflowing. Mostly there is joy but with a twinge of pain. Keeping it real here folks. I couldn't be any more thrilled then I am right now knowing that little Zahra has been told about her family. She gets it. She understands. We were told her face lit up as they told her about her family. Melt my mama heart. Seeing pictures of her hold the package we sent her put me over the edge. Her little face.....I just want to hold her!!! We're told her personality is sweet, kind, and gentle. Precious girl!!!
Our little lady now has this in her hands!
We love you sweet girl!!


This week we're prepping another little package to send to her and I'm making her a little blanket. These traveling families before us are truly a gift!!

Our friends Joe and Rachel are doing well, we talked to them this morning and it thrills our hearts to hear Abby is adjusting and the bonding process has started. God is SO good. We're holding down the fort here and I know little Abby has four siblings that CANNOT wait to meet her!
