As we wait for little Miss Ellie to come home to us, not an hour goes by that I don't think about the amazing woman who is making this all possible. I cannot explain in words the love, admiration, and gratitude I feel for "A". I remember feeling this way about "N" too, Gabi's birthmom. It was this immediate feeling of overwhelming love that came from loving her daughter. Our daughter. She has become a part of our lives. We talk about her. We pray for her. We thank God every day for the miracle that SHE will bring us.
I pray that I am worthy of this child. That I can love her enough to encompass both her mothers loves. I want Ellie to know that she has been loved before. Not only by us, but by a woman who's strength is admirable. I hope Ellie is like "A" in so many ways. That she is kind, and giving, and STRONG!
So, as the days of our "Waiting for Ellie" draw to a close, I want to express with all my heart the gratitude I feel for "A". There are no words, no gifts, no emotions that can fully convey how blessed we feel for having her in our lives.
