Have I told you....

......that we are IN LOVE with a baby from Ethiopia!!!!!!

We can't wait until our feet are on this path.

This is the path that will lead us right to our princess!

We can't wait to touch, hold, kiss and smell her! The more pictures and video we get, the more in LOVE we are! Mike had a tear in his eye this week and I asked what was wrong and he said "I really wish we could bring her home"....I love it that he loves her so much!!!!

The love for a child is one of the most amazing loves you can have. God sure knew what He was doing when He created that connection. I am soo glad you are getting video and pictures. Praying that God will work during this wait.

There is nothing more amazing then SEEING how much you husband loves his new child. I remember when we left Bella after our visit trip, she was 3 months old and perfect. My sweet husband went to the mens room and truly cried. It broke my heart for him, I was prepared emotionally for leaving her (though I did cry at night ALOT) but it made me love him more :)

So...you go to the top of the hill in the picture, and hang a right. HH is the first door on the right! I truly cannot wait for you to post a photo of that sweet little girl in your arms.

Waiting stinks, but I am trying to stay distracted. You are the one I have been thinking about! Your wait is much tougher and I have been praying for your peace in the wait.

I'm missing you too!! I've been so out of the loop. I can't imagine the wait you're going through right now. It is precious how in love you and your husband are with your baby girl. I cannot wait to see her in your arms!! I'm praying you get the call right after the courts open.

The AGCI picnic was a BLAST. It was so good to see so many families home with their babies and kids and also lots of expecting families. I'm excited for the next get together when there will be even more children! I also got to meet Julie which was really fun - she's awesome. I love the connections we all have with so many agci families. Are you guys having a picnic where you live?

Talk soon Michelle!!
