I don't know you and can't even remember how I found your blog. But my husband and I are adopting and in the waiting phase so I'm always looking for other adoptive families.
I just wanted to say Congrats! Evie is beautiful and adoption is truly a miracle. Thanks for sharing your story with such honesty, my heart ached for you as I read about Lucy and then jumped for joy when I saw that Evie is here.
WOW! WOW! WOW! All that waiting...all that pain...all that work. You must be out of your mind excited! She's beautiful! I can't wait to see and read more :).
