Our dearest Yohana,
Sweet pea, the time has finally come!
We have longed and yearned, we have prayed, we have laughed and cried. We have griped and complained. We have smiled and giggled as we prepared. We have fought, we have doubted, we have trusted. We have fallen to our knees with lifted hands. We have talked about you, bought things for you, created room for you in our home. We have dreamed.
Precious one, we cannot promise you the world. We cannot promise you health and prosperity. We cannot promise you happiness and wealth and complete safety. At times life will be hard, cruel and unfair.
But this we can offer...
Simple truths. A place to call home. Unconditional love.
Hang on baby girl, mommy and daddy are coming. with arms open wide.
