3 Years Ago Today...
Three years ago today my dream came true. I saw my daughter's face for the very first time. The phone rang at exactly 2:00 pm CST. Amanda from CCAI said "Congratulations Mommy, It's a beautiful baby girl." As she went over the referral information, I opened up the email she sent and just stared at the face of the most beautiful baby girl in the world. I was in shock, I was in love, I was a MOM. Right then and there, all the pain, hurt and fear just left my body. I was filled with instant love for my daughter. I just wanted to jump on a plane that day and get to her soon as possible. As I grow older I know my memory will begin to fail me and I won't remember all the little things that I would like to. Rest assured, somewhere in my heart I will always remember how I felt the moment I saw her sweet little face for the very first time.

Happy 3 year referral day! You are right, Dalls is such a beauty. I remember finding your blog on The Story of You in 2006 and still remember that sweet little face. Hope your day was full of joy. What a blessing your sweet baby girl is. :)
