With much excitement and anticipation we write our friends and family 12 hours from God adding our firstborn, a girl, to answer our prayers from the past full year. The nursery is set up, the crib is adjusted, the car seat has been figured out, and we own all the cute onesies on the planet.
We arrived in Joplin, MO this afternoon and took Allicia (our birth mom) out to dinner. It was a great time as we told her how many people are praying for her and how proud we were of her for being so strong these past 5 months we've known her. She is so beautiful and will be the woman God uses to change our lives forever tomorrow morning.
There will be a C-section birth at 9:30 AM tomorrow and we'll meet her!!! We will wait to post pictures until after Allicia signs the baby over to us legally, which typically is 48 hours post birth. But we will update this blog each day this week. We are so grateful for your prayers and are blessed to have so many people excited and supportive of us.
Our God is so awesome and what an amazing journey you are walking on to get your daughter. I am so happy for you and know what wonderful loving parents you will be this baby girl is so lucky and Blessed to have you both as her parents to love always. Keep the communication coming. love ya
