So many times in the process of getting to Keira I have thought to myself "I can't do this...I have to let go...it's too hard". And so many times the words have come to me over and over and over..."don't let me go".
For my friends still waiting...never say never...
Be sure to listen WITH the music and a special moment I wanted to share with each of you is near the end...

So beautiful!! SO very true...NEVER say never! Keep the faith for all who are still waiting, dreams DO come true!
That was awesome! Thank you so much for sharing with us. When it got to the end, waiting for her pic to come up, my family all crowded around and laughed with you! Li'l Empress keeps pointing and saying "Baby! Baby!" They even made me play it twice :)
What a treasure.
Wow, oh wow! Thank you, Christie, for sharing this precious moment with us.

Oh gosh Christie this has just taken my breath away, Im sitting here 4 hours after dental surgery with a big old honkin gauze in my mouth over sutures crying like a flippin baby....!!! Your husband is incredible, he made my day when he said, "There's my girl", dangit Im sobbing again....that is just the most beautiful video to have one day for Keira to look at. The God we serve is an awesome one and he reveals himself every single day to me and he worked overtime today!!!
Love and blessings, Kristy
p.s. I wished we lived closer, we would be great friends...all of us, you and I could talk for hours I bet!!!
p.s.s. what picture program do you have , I love it!
Now I feel stupid. I also meant to say that Quint also will love this in the future and he will see just how wanted, needed and loved he was from the very start. I fell in love with that child from the first time I laid eyes on him, well to be honest everyone in this family, everyone... sister, kids, husbands, neices, friends everyone and to look back on all of those pictures was just amazing.
Thank you for sharing.
God bless all of you.

Congratulations from Susan, mommy to Ting Ting, another "spicy girl" from Hunan
Jeez Louise, I can hardly see through my tears. What a great video. Keira is going to be such a beautiful addition to your already gorgeous family. Congratulations.

Mom to 2 China girls
That was AWESOME!!!!
You sure know how to make a sister cry! Or at least an auntie who's anxious to meet her new niece! Plowed through half a box of Kleenex watching your video. Love all 4 of you so much!
Girl, I am telling you, YOU NEED TO BE A WRITER!!!!! Of course I realize your life is about to get more hectic and crazy than it already is. But once it calms down and you get into a new routine with 2 kiddos, YOU NEED TO BE A WRITER!!!
