I am not even sure where to begin with this post. This has been a year of so many people helping me out, in so many different ways. From simple daily affirmations of support, to donations of all types, to fund raisers being held for me (that I didn't even know about). Thank you seems so small. With no idea how to truly say what my heart feels, I must stick with the standard THANK YOU.
Thank you to those who every day, tell me how excited they are for me in my journey and ask about it.
Thank you to those who have given their time, talents, and items they donated for sale.
Thank you to those who have given me cash donations. It's overwhelming to accept money from someone, but to know that person loves me and believes in me enough to help me in this way helps me through it.
Thank you to those who have given me endless aluminum cans, metals, and other things to recycle and get cash for. Over the last two and a half years, this has really added up.
Thank you to my close friends who hear me talk about my adoption to everyone that asks, they have heard the same story numerous times and have never once complained about it.
Thank you to my mom, who is my biggest supporter in our family. She has worked hard to make sure the house will be ready for her newest little grandson. She shares my story with all her friends over the phone. She might be just as excited as me. Thank you MOM.
Thank you to my Heavenly Father who has given me the patience throughout this process. I have no idea when I will hear about my little boy. I don't know when I will find out who he is, what he looks like, or what he is like. It is because of Him, I make it through each day without being frustrated that it's taking so long.
With that said, I am so thankful for this opportunity to become a mom. I am thankful for the lessons I am learning in the process. Patience being the biggest lesson of them all. I am hoping that patience will spill over to a three year old little boy that I am hoping to hear about soon.
You are all such an incredible part of this journey in my life and I am so grateful for the people it has brought into my world.
