Okay. Here is another song, but just the lyrics. I hadn't thought about this song in a long time but the words sure hit home now.
Thought you'd be here
by Wes King (CD- Room full of stories)
We thought you'd be here by now
Your mother and I
We're praying through our tears that somehow
We might hear your sweet cry
Have we waited too long
It's getting harder to be strong
Is there something we've done wrong
But if you like dancing
I'll make it rain rhythm and rhyme and melodies, child
And if you like dreaming
Your mother will make your imagination run wild
Somehow, we thought you'd be here by now
We have a room just for you upstairs
It's right down the hall
So we'll be close should you ever get scared
We'll come when you call
It's a room full of stories
Waiting to be told
Longing to behold
And if you like laughing
I'll paint you a circus of smiles and ferris wheels, dear
And if you like living
Your mother will fly you to worlds both far and near
Somehow . . .
I never knew the silence could make me so deaf
I never knew I could miss someone I've never met
Miss someone I haven't met yet
We'll be waiting

Those words really do hit home, don't they?
I truly believe this year will be the slowest for referrals, and we will all be getting closer to our babies a lot more quickly in 2007.
Favorite quote of the moment: "We don't all become mothers in the same way, but we all have a journey to make, with an amazing gift at the end." (unknown source) For some reason it makes me feel better about things when I feel uncertain.
I meant 2008. :)
What beautiful lyrics. Where can I hear the song?
Oh dear me, are you TRYING to make me cry? WHat a nice song! And SO TRUE!!!
Beautiful. I love it.
Love it!!!
Amy,
Sorry to leave you hanging for a little while there on the morning chat. I called away by my hubs to help with some laundry.
I thought it would just be a minute.
: ) Usually I'm always right there. Have a great weekend.
I hope you guys have a
great holiday weekend!
Amy,
Thanks for the encouraging comments to us, best wishes to you on your own adoption journey!
Anne and Mike
