Soaring

All seems right in our little piece of the world tonight. I can't tell you how good it feels to type that sentence. This little girl of ours looks so good to me. I look at her and my heart soars. I'm still trying to let the reality of having her home sink in. She belongs here and our days in this little house are so precious to my heart. I am so grateful to be home.

All of our children are tucked in their beds. I have kissed their precious foreheads, told them how much they are loved, and now I sit here reflecting on how incredible it feels to be with them tonight. Again, my heart is soaring.

Ashley Kate gave me the biggest, most deliberate hug today and it made me cry. I know there are not enough words to describe how much I love our little one, but knowing that she feels the same way towards me is an awesome, awesome feeling. We walk in the room and she lights up. We speak to her and she has trouble containing her excitement. We pick her up and she lays her little head on our shoulders and pats us with her tiny hands. My biggest prayer for Ashley Kate during those early, uncertain days was that she have the ability to give and receive love. If she never does anything else my prayers have been answered. She loves and she knows she is loved. The most appropriate word I can share is that I am soaring. The Father is so,so good to us.

Its been a good day. I am more than grateful. Good night my friends. Trish
