I'm not ugly!
Mommy, I have something HUGE to tell you.
Really?I can't wait to hear it... tell me
A boy in school told me I was ugly and you know what I did?
As my blood was silently boiling, I answered carefully... what did you do, baby?
I stood up and said really loud, I'M NOT UGLY!
Mommy, I stood up for myself. The smile was breathtaking.
Oh, yes you did my beautiful girl, yes you did.

Hi Lisa! I'm Lucy from Spain. I've been reading you're blog for some time now, and decided that it's not fair I never write anything. Well, I must say that I'm adopting from India, and your blog really gets to my heart. Kajal is for me like a big sister to my future child, you both make me understand things that I hope will help my child. Kajal makes me feel so happy for her, she's going to be a great child. And I'm really glad you've done the move/change of home. I wish you all the best.

Please keep in touch with us Lucy, we'll keep you in our prayers ... your path is such an amazing one and we'll both look forward to hearing updates from you. We're touched that you are sharing our journey, imagine, one day soon you'll be experiencing many of these same joys. I remember in the days I was waiting for Kajal, before I even knew her name or we were 'matched'. At night I would lie down to sleep and hold out my hand, closing my eyes I would imagine my future child's hand in mine. I would pray for my child to be well and safe until we could be together. That day comes faster than you ever imagined and before you know it, you'll be falling asleep truly, holding that little hand.
