It is hard to believe that Madilyn is already 7 months old. Where has the time gone? She is a beautiful little girl and I feel so blessed to have her. Our adoption will be final next week. While finalization is just a “piece of paper” I can not wait for the judge to say that the adoption is finalized. It seems like such a long road that we have traveled to get to this point.
Madilyn is reaching all of her milestones and is a happy healthly baby. She is now in the process of trying to stand up by herself. She falls, but always gets back up to try again. She is not one to give up easily.
She is now sleeping through the night, and when she wakes up she will play in her crib for a little while. Most of the time we can lay her down at night while she is still awake and within a few minutes she will fall asleep, without any fussing or crying.
I hope one day that she will know how much she is loved and how much she was wanted. I am so glad that the night we got the phone call about her we said yes. We had been hurt and let down so many times in the past with similar phone calls that we had given up on ever having another child. I am thankful that God placed in our hearts to say yes.
