My Heart is Full

Last night we all went to visit with the girls again. We took them to Chicken Express and Walmart as requested. Both girls are calling us "Mommy" and "Daddy" quite naturally now. They even called me "Mama" a couple of times. It was very sweet. What feels weird is having to go "visit" our kids, and then leave them there at the end of the night.

Foster Mom had a great idea to let us take some of their stuff home with us last night. That way we won't have so much to move TOMORROW MORNING!! We are picking them up at 8am tomorrow. We are all very excited. The greatest blessing is that even my son is getting excited. He was very reluctant at first about the adoption, but now that he has met them and gotten to know them a little, he is eager to bring them home.

We really began to feel like a family last night. And I think it happened at Walmart. Kind of weird, huh? But there's something about buying mouthwash and socks with your kids that just feels so normal, and they were right there with us, and it just fit.

Last night D3 asked us if we would pray with her at night. She is also scared of wolves.

We bought them their first ever Polly Pockets.

D2 has a really pretty face under all that chopped up hair.

The girls are being loving to all of us. They easily hug me, DH, D1 and Son. In fact last night Son had them both hugging him at the same time, and they nearly took him down! and D3 has a bad habit of lifting her feet when you lean over to give her a hug. Both DH & I have nearly bit the dust from that one.

Just one more day. 25.5 hours in fact. :)
