We leave in a few days and we are so ready to meet our daughter! The stress of packing and the dread of a 24 hour flight ain't no thang compared to the anticipation of meeting E.
Whenever I imagine seeing her for the first time I get emotional. I'm hoping that I will be able to hold it together when the moment actually arises. The last thing we need during the first encounter together is me doing the ugly cry.....on video. Trust me, once I start the waterworks they are difficult to turn off! I blame genetics.
I've been able to get snippets and photos here and there about E from other traveling families. Here is a funny little story one mama shared with me (special mothers are care takers at Hannah's Hope orphanage , FYI).
Have to tell you, one day they had just had baths and E was seriously running around the room buck naked giggling hysterically. The specials mothers and I were laughing so hard, she was just too hilarious!
Isn't that funny? Sounds like our girl is having a good time, and adjusting well to Hannah's Hope. I've heard so many amazing things about HH, I can't wait to experience it first hand. It sure makes the wait for E seem a lot easier on me.
And here are a couple more pictures of our precious girl.
(Of course, we still can't show her cute face.)

CANNOT WAIT to see the video of you meeting your girl for the first time! Praying for you!!
