What Are You Feeling?

Look at that pinky finger - so dainty!!!!!!

Can't wait for those beautiful lips to smooch all over me.

Sweet Hannah Grace. There is so much in my heart tonight. They've told us that you know we are coming. But, I wonder just how much do you comprehend? Can you understand that we love you beyond anything that you have yet to experience? Do you know that we are trying our best to do what is best for you? I am sure that you will look at us like we are some kind of aliens who are kidnapping you away from everything that you think you love. I know we will look different, smell different, and even talk different. We hope to keep your heritage alive. We don't want you to ever lose that part of your life. But we also want you to embrace ours. You have alot of adoring fans waiting to meet you. I've had so many people ask me just this week how long they will have to wait before they get to meet you. I know you don't have a clue now - but girl, God has blessed you with an amazing fan club.

Are you scared? I am. But I am positive that we will get through this together. Will you cry? Will you pitch a fit? Will you bottle it up on the inside and be brave on the outside? How long will it take for you to trust us? How long will it be before I truly know and understand that you "feel" that we are your parents? This bonding thing is a little tricky. I've been reading & I want you to know we are here. And we are in this for the long haul. We will be with you & never let you go. We will do whatever it takes for you.

Right now I can't imagine loving you any more than I do today, but I know that I will. God has allowed me to experience it with your older brothers. Each day I've thought "it can't get any better than this" - and then God surprises me with something!!!! (even on the rough days. And yes there will be rough days. I just want you to be prepared.)

Do you have any idea what you'll be into with those boys in those pictures that we sent you? Most days they talk about you like you are a celebrity (which you are). Then reality hits them & jealousy sets in with the realization of what is going to happen in this house. They are such territorial creatures, your brothers. They are currently deciding just exactly what you will & will not be doing. They each have your schedule planned out, each one with something specific to teach you. They also had laid out the rules as to what you will not be doing - such as playing with THEIR toys. LOL. Girl, you are gonna rock their little testosterone filled world. They need you so much & they don't even know it.

We all need you. I've had people telling me what a good thing we are doing & how lucky and blessed you are. But they are wrong. We are the lucky and blessed ones because of you. We have been changed just because of you. I can't wait to see how God is going to use you to change the rest of the world.

Sweet dreams my love. It won't be long now. We will be there soon. Your family is impatiently waiting to see your beautiful face. We can't wait for you to light up our home with that gorgeous smile of yours. We love you more than we ever thought possible.
