The other day my cousin received a long awaited phone call. After much thought, consideration, soul searching, research and filling out a ton of paperwork the waiting started. She waited and hoped. Hoped and waited. Finally on Thursday the call came. The adoption agency notified her that an expectant mother has selected her to be the one to raise her daughter. Oh happy day!
Our whole family and anyone who knows Anne is thrilled. Needless to say, Anne is on cloud nine. This little baby girl is so very fortunate that her birth mother loves her so much that she is willing (for what ever reasons they are) to let another mother raise her. I personally think the birth mother made an excellent selection in choosing my cousin. This baby will be welcomed into a loving home, where she'll be taught all the things she needs to know to be independent and successful in life. She will have grandparents and aunts that delight in her, great-aunts and uncles and lots of cousins of all ages to laugh and play with. She will be cherished.
Some things (like bundles of baby-goodness) are worth waiting for. Me? I'm heading to the store to buy her a Sock T. Pus.
