Last year at this time I was flying over the ocean going on the biggest journey of my life. The journey to get our little girl. I know I was terrified as turbulence hit while flying over that ocean. I did a lot of praying, and as he had promised God got me through it, the airports, checkpoints and eventually to Liberia where the best gift of all was waiting for me. I will never forget as long as I live the moment that she walked around the corner of the dining room at the guesthouse. I seen those big brown eyes that captured my heart many months before and they never let go. I looked at Josie many times today and thought, oh how this year has flown by. It seems like she has always been with me. As I hold her today (she has a double ear infection:( ), I rubbed my finger on her cheeks and across the bridge of her nose and I think of how blessed I am to have her, and our two sons for that matter. Josie is part of my heart, a part that I didn't know was missing until I seen her picture, a part of my heart that I was searching for for so long, a part of my heart that was filled a year ago tomorrow. I thank God for her everyday and that I was so blessed for him to have chosen me to be her mommy! We love you Josie, my beautiful baby girl!
