Christmas Thoughts

As milestones, and holidays roll around it brings thoughts of Emma's birth mother to my heart. I wonder if she is thinking about her. I hope and pray that she has peace about her decsion to give her daughter to adoption. Now I know that the circumstances that suround Emma's entering the orphange were not great. I know that her mother had to leave her baby and never look back. However I dont feel that constitutes her not caring about her daughter. She had few choices and chose to give my daughter a chance at life. This might not have been the outcome if other choices were made. I hope that her mother has peace. I will tell Emma that she was loved by her parents, not in the way that her Baba and I love her but loved just the same. I wish I could know who this wonderful person was. So I could in the very least tell her thank you. Thank you for taking a leap of faith and hope and in duing so giving me the joy of motherhood. I love this little girl so much. She is the center of my world and I enjoy every day with her. I found this video by Mark Schultz and christian artist. It expresses what I hope Emma's knows and how Emma will feel toward the mother who gave her life and a chance. I want her mother to know that we appreciate the sacrifice that she made.

Christmas

Well it's that time of year again. We have been so busy having fun this December that I haven't had the chance to post. Ugh. We have been shopping and playing with freinds. Our Charistmas tree went up the day after Thanksgiving but I am already to take it down.(lol) We have a new member to our family a kitty named Jinx and she had decided to take roost in our tree. This is highly upsetting because this year I have discovered the best Ornaments. They are called Li Bien and are from CHINA. They are painted from the inside out and of course of very very breakable. So I am NOT putting them on my tree since Jinx had decided to LIVE in my tree. We had a ornament exchange with the playgroup and took the girls in a trailer to go and see lights. Of course my camera has decided to die at the most awful time. Go Figure. Well I will post more after Christmas.
