It seems I have written you so many times over the past couple of weeks. I guess that I've just had so many things to say to you. It's probably the holiday season and the focus that the holidays gives us on the people who are important to us, our family members. So since we cannot talk to you in person, letters it is!
I couldn't wait to sit down today and tell you about what happened last night. BF did some Christmas shopping after he got off work and while I was gone at Lanman's basketball game. He was a bit secretive about what he was getting so I assumed it was something for me for Christmas.
However, when I got home, I found a stack of gifts sitting on top of our dresser. The entire stack was for you. It was obvious.
So I after I changed clothes, I came out into the living room and told BF that I absolutely loved what he had chosen for you. All of it is just perfect for you.
He followed me back into the bedroom and started telling me about why he chose what he did. It was precious to see the sparkle in his eyes as he talked about each thing and how he thought you would be able to use it.
I had to leave the room and tend to Lanman and D, but from the other room I heard BF ask me what your favorite TV show is because he can never remember the name of it. I shouted back the name of the show, not exactly sure why he wanted to know.
So once I finished with the boys, I walked back into the bedroom where he was still looking up something on the Internet. He was determined to find something to go along with your gift. It made my heart so happy to see how determined he was to find just the right thing for you. I think I may have fallen in love with him even more at that moment just seeing how much it means to him to find just the right thing for you. It brings tears to my eyes right now just thinking about it.
Anyway, he found what he was looking for and tonight will will order it and combine it with the gift that he already purchased. My favorite part is that every bit of the gift was BF's idea. Normally with the boys, I try to help him get ideas, or I will even buy things for him. But this gift was all him. No help from me.
And it is perfect.
I can't wait to send it to you. I wish we could see you open it and play with it, but we will just imagine what that will be like since we will not be able to know.
We love you very much!

I started a blog about a month and a half ago. My husband and I are on the waiting list for adoption. We so desperately want to extend our family and I so desperately want to become a mommy. I started connecting with different people discussing their feelings about adoption and infertility. Your blog has touched me. It has exposed the side of the birth mother that I will never know because I can't conceive. My husband and I want an open adoption. We want our child to know his/her roots and their story. My heart aches for you as I know your story turned into something you didn't sign up for. I'll continue to pray that God works His magic in helping you and your daughter connect. In the meantime, please know you are touching lives down deep.
I am praying for you. You are such a good mom and you have a such a loving spirit that shines through in this blog. I know one day your daughter is going to know how much she is loved by you.
