We can't believe ..........

Sometimes people touch the lives of others and there is no way to tell them how you feel about what they've done. We feel that way now. Mere words cannot express how grateful we are.

A few weeks ago we did one of the hardest things we have ever done - we asked for help bringing our new daughter home. The response has been overwhelming. We don't know where to start ........

To all of our family & friends -- We have been blessed -- God has surrounded us with so many caring and loving people - people we could not live without. Your support and love has carried us through much of the emotional journey we have been on these past few months . . . . thank you for always being there for us.

Stacy, thank you for spearheading the fundraising at EMS . . . . Jill & Ann thank you for pitching in too . . . . if it wasn't for you guys the books would have never gone out, I just couldn't bring myself to do it, it's not an easy thing to do and I was just too uncomfortable. Thank you EMS!

Cousin's Club -- thank you guys once again for your support!!! Please don't throw in the spoons on me yet -- I'll get better about getting there, I promise -- by the way where & when next month???

Somewhere along the way I found this quote . . . it tells you how we feel about the kindness you have shown us ..........

Kindness is tenderness. Kindness is love, but perhaps greater than love...Kindness is good will. Kindness says, "I want you to be happy.
- Randolph Ray

You have brought us one step closer to bringing our daughter home ... she has no idea what a loving group of people are waiting to meet her!

THANK YOU from the bottom of our hearts!

Hello family,

What a great outcome for you all. I know you receive all the love and support because you also give the same to all of us. Thanks for the map of Bulgaria, I was going to ask you to do that. It helps to know where you are going, makes us feel more connected. We will be in touch with you before our up coming vacation. Keep the adoption flow going strong.
Love and hugs...
