Pat and Stacy and the ever spirited Aiden...I cannot say just thank you to the people who were with us from the time we landed, through every moment of visitation, at almost every meal for 28 days until we touched down in Atlanta with our children...You guys will always be so special...
There are so many others still in the process and some that went before us that have been part of our prayers and have prayed for us, offered comfort and valuable advice through email blogs, or on the phone...I thank you and I continue to lift you up and remember your children daily.

So grateful to have shared the journey with you!!
Thanks for all the inside scoops!!
I have tears in my eyes! You all are soo special to us as well! I don't think we could have made it without you all. May I have a copy of the picture you posted of us in Atlanta? I love it!
What a nice tribute to all the people who have helped you along your journey. Very sweet.
Loved the Good Girl post. Too cute!!
What a journey full of wonderful people. I think that's what I have enjoyed so much about the adoption journey. The people I have met along the way that made it so much easier to bare.
And...I will repeat something I said from long ago, when this all began..You wonderful folks who are blogging your experiences, not only have kept all of us who love you in the "loop" and given us specifics for our prayers, you have answered our prayers, as well. I, for one, have noticed how you have turned this maligned internet into a beacon. Thank you for spreading His love to us all. God Bless you all.
