Merry Christmas Mia


As has now become tradition, I'm again sharing my favorite "waiting for my daughter" Christmas song by Third Day.

I spent some time this evening... the fourth Christmas Eve since my daughter was born in my heart... and let myself imagine what this holiday will be like when she's finally home where she belongs. Those dreams are nice. But the reality is hard. I pray this is the last Christmas spent without her. There's a mommy, grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousins all waiting for her to take her place within this family. We've waited so long for her. Please God ....let next Christmas be different. Next Christmas I want to cry myself to sleep with happy tears instead.

I hope 2010 brings brighter days for you. We're all anxious to welcome this little girl to the family.

This was my third waiting Christmas. It was a little stark without my daugter, too. Here's to next year for you...!

Or just fall asleep from purr exhaustion and you will and I so hope it is this year for you too. You have been so patient and kept your eyes on what is to come and God will wipe all those tears away soon. Happy New Year to you and your family.
