Wesleigh's birthday is Feb. 12, so it looks like she'll be home!!! We can't believe it!! The agency can't believe it!!! What an amazing miracle! Thank you, Jesus!!

Congratulations! I have been visiting your site for a long time and praying for you guys! So glad all of those prayers have been answered! Wesleigh is gorgeous and will be in your arms before you know it...adopting our Kate from China 5 yrs ago was a gift and we delight in her every move daily!

She is beautiful!!! Congratulations!!!

This is so strange but I ALMOST posted a comment on your blog yesterday because I wanted to ask you if LOA's were coming any quicker for those people who have been logged in a long time. I know when we were waiting for ours we "thought" ours would come quicker because of that but it ended up that we waited just about as long as everyone else. Anyways...I just had this feeling that maybe yours would come quick and I wondered if you thought it might too! But there you have it...it's here and I know you have got to be THRILLED!!!

We traveled in January last year. I look forward to following along while you are there...it will bring back many wonderful memories.

Congratulations again!!

P.S. Come over to the AWAA Special Needs yahoo group and share your news!!! There is a list (unofficial) where you can see others with similar dates. Often, they end up being your travel mates.

Here's the url: http://groups (dot) yahoo.com/group/AWAA_WaitingChildren/ ((remove the "dot" and put a "." :) didn't want to invite any spammers into your blog!

Your daughter is the sweetest looking angel....what a blessing!!!

And, I just love her name and the way you have chosen to spell it!!!!!

Being a teacher myself (not right now, I am staying at home with my little one, and waiting for our newest daughter from China), finding a name that is different, but not too different, a name that isn't too over used, or a name that reminds you of a...ummmm...challenging student...can be quite a task!!! lol

Rebel said...
