Holiday Season

Happy 6 Months to my baby girl!!!

Well, holiday season is here and I love the holidays!!! This year though things that I love doing and being a part of is hard to enjoy because all I want is to have Amayah enjoying these things with me.



There was Thanksgiving which in my family is just a very relaxing holiday and if you can make it to the parents great, but if you can't then we will see you at Christmas.  Thanksgiving this year consisted of Dad, Mom, myself, Joshua (brother), Danielle (sis in law), and their daughter Harper.  Harper is one month and 3 days older than Amayah. I'm so excited they are so close in age! I know they will be the best of friends!!:)  While home I got an email from the agency just letting the families know of the kiddos in the DRC are all safe, and they are keeping up with all the fighting that is going on. They will take action to keep the kiddos safe if it comes to that point. We got the Christmas lights put up on the parents house, so I considered myself the favorite daughter for the day at least since I was the one who helped dad put them up.  I love getting they one on one still with my parents! I have to admit I have some wonderful parents!! I am so thankful that my dad is getting to go with me to bring Amayah home. Looking forward to that day!! Well, on Thanksgiving day we have the tradition to enjoy the Black Friday shopping! It's not about the shopping for us but the fellowship that we have during that time with each other. So we got it going at about 2:30am. I finished up at 7:30am and then headed home to sleep for a bit. My goal for the weekend was to get up the Christmas decorations!! I had to keep myself busy because when I was not doing something I would start thinking about how I want Amayah here right now enjoying the Holiday with me and I would just get very emotional! I know The Lord is taking care of her until we finally come together!! So I got the Christmas decorations up and the house cleaned!! Amayah's room a little more organized and her baby Einstein put together!!! Yay!! My nephew, Noah was born over the Thanksgiving holiday!! So glad he has made  his appearance.

clothes for the future!! :)

baby einstein!! Can't wait for her to be playing in it!!!

I don't want to go another holiday without my sweet baby girl, but I know if I have too that it is all in God's timing!  I pray that God would continue to watch over all our kiddos that are at the transition house or not quite made it there yet. I also pray for all the families that are in the same boat that I am in.  This journey is such an emotional journey, but know that the day you get to bring your kiddo home is going to be the best day ever!! Oh how we long for that day!!  I pray they we all get pics soon to ease our hearts and minds!

Thanks for all your support!!
BLESSINGS!
