This is why we are here....
I am madly missing my other girls but seeing these smiles reminds me what we are doing......
There are a million reasons why we shouldn't be here.......
but there is only ONE reason why we should be here.....
and her name is
Mia Kareen!!!!
And she deserves to smile!!!!!
She deserves to laugh so hard she can't hold her head up!
She deserves to explore the world and show what she has to offer
She is why we are here
She is why we will press on
I miss my girls back home so bad it hurts
but one day she will get to hug those new sisters and they will know
that they saved their sister's life and
She is worth it!
So we will keep enjoying witnessing the miracle that this is
We will keep enjoying watching this little flower bloom before our eyes
(We tried out the timer to catch a few pics of us all together.)
Because when all is said and done, she is worth it!
This is crazy, Kecia- just as I was thinking "She is just like a flower unfolding right before our eyes"- I read your words!! It gave me the chills! She gets prettier every day and just looks SOOO happy!!

Mia's smile gets bigger and bigger on every post! She looks SO happy with her mommy and daddy! I can't wait to see her reaction when she meets her sisters at home!
ReplyDeleteSo worth it! My favorite picture is the one 3rd to the end. Just beautiful. I was going to say what Julie said, that you can almost hear her laughter!
ReplyDeleteThought of you today when I read Pres. Eyring's talk from the last conference called "Opportunities to Do Good." He said, "For the Master I extend thanks for your work to serve the children of our Heavenly Father. He knows you, and He sees yours effort, diligence, and sacrifice. I pray that He will grant you the blessing of seeing the fruit of your labors in the happiness of those you have helped and with whom you have helped for the Lord."
Keep up the good work! Praying for you always. Loves.
She does look so very happy and seems to be getting much more comfortable with her new Mommy and Daddy! I can only imagine how much you must miss you other beauties but she is definitely worth it and knows what a huge plan God has for her. Yeah, yeah, yeah!!

ReplyDeleteTo see how happy she is going down the slide is priceless. To see her walk hand in hand with her Papa is adorable. To see all three of you together and the bond you have created in such a short time is a testament of a divine plan. My heart aches with joy as I think of the live your family is giving her. The happiness she will now get to experience. The joy she will bring to each of your lives and the joy you each will bring to hers. I wait anxiously each day to read your updates, thank you for sharing your miracle. You are all so beautiful. I pray your family will ALL be together soon!
