If you know our daughter, Sahara, I don't have to tell you how her mind works. But in the event that you don't...here's the run down: she will get up in the morning at 7am and be ready for the day [this child will NEVER NEED STARBUCKS], she will want to read books with you, chase you, play with her dog Petey, get breakfast, watch a show, write on her chalkboard, color a friend a picture, read more books, help me fold laundry, and get a snack...ALL AT THE SAME TIME! And while all of that is going on in the first 30 minutes of the day she will all of a sudden pause and ask me the most random and heartfelt questions. This was the one I got the other day..."Mama, when my baby sister gets home from Ethiopia and she lives with us, when she gets bigger will she stay with us forever?"
How beautiful is that? We hope and pray you know, sweet little girl, wherever you are today, that soon...very soon...you will be with a family forever that will love you, cherish you, play with you, teach you, and honor you. Hold on to HOPE.
With our love, Mommy, Daddy and Sahara
