2 big kids in love EQUALS = Hubby and I. Build a family to love EQUALS = our child who grew in our hearts. We had to buckle our seat belts because adoption was a wild ride. Yes, we waited and waited and waited, did I mention.....waited ………to build a family to love. Finally our dreams have come true and we are home with our baby girl!
WE ARE DREAMING OF A SISTER
