From the Heart
Well I am feeling very loved and supported tonight. I am amazed at the network of friends waiting for my dear daughter. To think that this little sweetie is sitting in an orphanage with no clue that a huge audience is awaiting her appearance! After opening the two packages from Donna and Selima I opened a card with a lovely poem from the mom of one of my former students.
"As you begin one of life's new journeys
and cross the wide blue sea,
You'll come across a child
You will soon know as Abbey.
And when you've reached
Your point of destination,
Your heart will fill anew.
For now you have a child,
And that child has been
blessed with you."
Thank you Linda and Kimberly! I can't wait for her to meet the two of you.

I have tears rolling down my cheeks just catching up on your blog. The gifts, the poem, the bracelet, the packing, your thoughts of Abbey in your home, the famiy and friends waiting for her, it is an overwhelming excitement for those who don't even know you. Blessed is all I can say.

Christi, I have been following your blog and I think I've seen you now and then on the MSN group--I just wanted to write and tell you that Abbey Zhuo Zhuo has touched my heart and I can't wait to hear the wonderful news that she is finally with her Mommy. It won't be long now!
