New pictures of Shiloh came in today from our Agency. I can't believe how beautiful she is and how quickly we got these. Of course I called Chuck and sent them to him at work. This was an incredibly pleasant surprise and a very big Merry Christmas present for our family. Dakota was very excited and said, "Mommy I love her, can we go get her now." Shiloh looks so healthy and she looks to be handling the stairs just fine on her own! Everyone in the family is ready to go get her. I thought the waiting was hard when I didn't have a clue who she was, but somehow the wait now is even harder. I did get word that our Care Package should get to her in a few days. I am hoping the nannies will show her our picture on the pillow and she will see us holding up her picture. Merry Christmas little girl:)
Merry Christmas
(Third Day)
There's a little girl trembling on a cold December Morn
Crying for Momma's arms
At an orphanage just outside a little China town
Where the forgotten are
But half a world away I hang the stockings by the fire
And dream about the day when I can finally call you mone
It's Christmas time again and you're not home
Your family is here and yet you're somewhere else alone
And so tonight I pray that God will come and hold you in his arms
And I tell you from my heart I wish you Merry Christmas
As I hand the tinsel on the tree and watch the twinkling lights
I'm warmed by the firs's glow
Outside the children tumble in a wonderland of white
make Angels in the snow
But half a world away you try your best to fight the tears
And hope that heaven's angels come to carry your here
It's Christmas time again but you're not home
Your family is here and yet you're somewhere else alone
And so tonight I pray that God will come and hold you in his arms
And tell you from my heart I wish you Merry Christmas
Christmas is a time to celebrate the holy child
And we celebrate his perfect gift of love
he came to earth to give his life
and prepare a place for us
So we could have a home with him above
It's Christmas time again and now you're home
Your family is here so you will never be alone
So tonight before you go to sleep, I'll hold you in my arms
And I'll tell you from my heart and I'll tell you from my heart
I wish you Merry Christmas
