Hold you first
Hear your first cry
Change your first diaper
See our physical features on you
Spend the first nights outside the womb with you
I will...
Hold you the most
Wipe away the most tears
Change an incredible amount of diapers
Stare at your beautiful face until I memorize it
Take time every night thanking God for bringing you to us
It's hard to understand the losses associated with adoption. There are things we won't be able to do or experience. What we can do, is remember that the things we can't do will fade away. They won't outshine the things that we CAN do and experience.
Just thought I'd share a little bit of our perspective with you all.
