Hallmark Moments

As our referral day draws closer, Mike and I have had numerous conversations about "the moment that changes our lives forever." We've talked about exchanging gifts, cards, or sharing a romantic dinner. I'm not sure if any of these will really capture the moment. Nonetheless, I found myself in Hallmark overwhelmed with tears when I read (to the family of a newborn): "There are so many people who love you, and we don't even know who you are."

This is so true! Family and friends have embraced our daughter, yet for right now she's still half a world away.

Unconditional love: "Love freely given expecting nothing in return . . . " If you're reading this, you've already given us that very precious gift - and we're exceedingly thankful!
