I love this! I wish that I had a T-shirt to wear today! Nobody knows that I just had a 63lb, 49inch boy today!
Hope your adoption goes VERY smoothly. Thanks for the congrats on my adoption on Cafemom.
Love it!! you sure are glowing.
here's a little something for you both..
It starts in the heart
With this child you love more than anything,
And the joy you know his or her life will bring.
I starts in the heart
Wanting to give everything right
There must have been a lot of sleepless nights.
It starts in the heart
Your desire for parents to love them so,
And give you the peace you need to know.
It starts in the heart
When you look in their eyes and touch the little cheek,
The love in you hearts, you can hardly speak.
It starts in the heart
Your love for this baby, you'll both hold and treasure,
The happiness in life, there will be no measure.
It starts in the heart
The joy that this precious child has already given
Will truly be your little sunbeam from heaven.
