Wonderful and Amazing People!

Once again I am way over due on posting but tonight I wanted to share a very special gift with you. This gift comes from a very special couple that I have never even met. Dana and Mike are friends of my sister Tommi. They live in her neighborhood. They had started the process to adopt from China but life took a different turn and they have since stopped the process. I feel for them as I can only imagine how hard of a decision that was to make. Dana had bought some wonderful things for her little girl and since life has changed she has sent these wonderful things to Mike and I for Emma. We were overwhelmed with Dana and Mike's thoughtfulness. We couldn't believe that they would give these wonderful gifts to us. Check out what they sent us!



This is a picture of everything they sent us. It was hard to get it all in one picture!! Can you believe they sent us all of this?! I took a few close-ups of the pictures ...
This beutiful doll has so much detail. I wish you could see it all in the picture. This one is going on Emma's shelf. Sorry Emma, you won't be playing with this one!

Dana's Mom had bought this for her. I can only imagine how special this was to Dana and I hope she knows how much I will treasure this. I can't wait to have Emma home and get her picture taken in this!
Okay Emma, you can play with these! The Corolle doll is so cute! Dana and Mike sent both of these for Emma. One to play with while she is little and then a larger one for when Emma gets a little bigger. I have to confess, I have already been playing with these!
I only had room to post one more picture so I chose the Precious Moment adoption figurine. I love Precious Moments and have the perfect place for this! If you check out the first picture again you will see an adoption book that I just loved. Mike and I sat down the first night we got it and read it. We also got such a cute asian lamp. We wanted to send out a big thank you to Dana and Mike for sharing these incredible gifts with us. I hope you know how much they have meant to us!

I also wanted to send a very special Happy Father's Day out to my Dad, my father-in-law, and of course my wonderful husband. Thank you all for being so special and always being here for me. I love you very much!
