Missing her today. . .

Taken after Thanksgiving dinner in the lobby of the hotel.
I want to kiss this sweet little face. Pray she will be home soon.

Aaron said before we collapsed into bed after campaigners that he really missed Lucy all day. I have been feeling the same way the last couple of days. We haven't heard anything since last Wednesday when we got the out call. I put the list below of all the things that have to happen before she comes home. Watching the other babies timeline it takes anywhere from 3-6 weeks for it all to turn around. I have been praying for her birth mother as she signs off the final time. I just really miss her. We are so close, yet it seems so far away when I look at the list and haven't gotten any updates that any of it has taken place. Thanks for checking the blog and caring about sweet Lucia. Keep praying that she is going to be home soon.

We keep praying that she will come home very soon. It must be very hard to have to wait so long for information instead of hearing everytime something gets checked off.

The wait for Pink is the hardest. So hard to complain about it since you are OUT and others are not, but there is so much to plan and nothing to go by and you just want your baby home. I totally remember that feeling!!!! Soon it will happen for you :)
