Wow Was This a Day to Remember!!

As I write this post the most beautiful baby in the world is in Adrienne's arms. I did tell her that occasionally Jim should get a turn to hold her too! Owen was very excited to see the little tiny baby.

Everyone is doing well. The mood is light and peace is in the air. I know Adrienne is going to have a really hard time picking just one pick to post of the little tiny baby. I do not want to give away all the good information but one thing I will say is she will need many bows for all that hair.

Thank you everyone for your prayers. Amazingly I am in no pain at all. I have never heard of a person not being in pain after a car accident like mine. I guess this is just another ordinary miracle!

Joy-I'm so glad you are okay. How scary! God was taking care of you for sure. Very neat story about how you introduced Adrienne to this family. I've talked with her about lots of the details but she had not yet shared that you hooked them up. This shows your heart and how kind you are! Thanks for sharing an update on their family tonight.

I hope you and Gerard hear something very soon from Russia. Have you gotten any updates?

What a blessing to experience today's adoption. To know both parties involved must have been very special. So glad you were able to share in today's joyous occassion.

Praying you hear your own news soon.

Joy, I can't thank you enough for all you have done the past few months. You listened to me & let me be angry & sad & happy & grateful all at the same time. Spending the day at the hospital yesterday must have been difficult for you, but you never let it show.
Your selfless, sincere love & concern for me, my daughter & Adrienne was incredible.
I know your efforts will be rewarded. One day, you & Gerard will enjoy the same precious gift that you allowed Adrienne & Jim to have.

I have to agree with Adrienne - your name suits you wonderfully! I can't visit your or Adrienne's blog and not leave with a case of sniffles and wanting more & more details! What a beautiful blessing you have been to both of these families.

Do you realize what a party Bloggerland is going to have once you receive your referral? I can't wait to celebrate that day as we are all celebrating now with Adrienne, Jim & Owen.

God Bless you!

Joy--just read Adrienne's blog and know you are probably around all involved. Just wanted to offer encouragement to you as I can only imagine the position you are in supporting everyone the best you know how. Offering up prayers for you, too!

(BTW--please give Adrienne a giant hug from Blogland.)
