Isn't she a beauty? I had the awesome privilege of spending the day with this little cutie! I have been following her mommy's blog and recently found out that she and her mommy don't live very far from me. So we met for lunch in Jackson, TN today to officially meet. Let me tell you, this little girl overwhelmed my heart.
I am told this is a typical Gracie face. I LOVE IT! Can you imagine what she is thinking to herself? Probably, "Who is this strange lady who is taking pictures of me?" Is she adorable or what? But after a couple of hours, we were fast friends. She was sharing kisses and talking up a storm, however, we never did manage to get her to smile today.
This is pure sweetness. As I was holding Gracie, my heart felt something it has been longing to feel, or just a glimpse of it anyway. I just kept looking into these deep dark eyes and thanking God that THIS child found her forever family. As I held her, somehow my heart found hope for holding my Kaylee. I was in an awesome place in my mind and heart with her. Thank you, Sherri and Nanny for sharing Grace with me today. You don't know how much good it did my heart to hold this little beauty and share kisses with her. What a doll.
Me, Grace, and Sherri, her mom
Starting to share kisses with me!
Love this profile!
Would you please quit telling me how cute I am?
Okay, I'll play peek-a-pie with you.
What a beautiful day. My heart has been filled with a new found friendship, awesome joy, and sweet Grace. Thank you, Lord, for bringing this sweet family into my life. To hold this little girl is more than my heart could hope for right now. If anything, You have showed me that dreams do come true and through Grace You have given peace to my heart until the day I meet my sweet Kaylee. Please, Lord, keep this child close to Your heart. She is simply the most precious thing I have ever seen. Thank you for sending her to a wonderful family. Please bring Kaylee home so that she and Gracie can be buddies.
