I'm Ready

I'm ready.....

 I am ready for a lot of things......

For my entire family to be under one roof.

 To not feel like someone is always missing. 

To not picture what every situation would be like if she were here. 

To not wonder if she feels loved. 

To not worry about her health. 

To not think in two different time zones.

 To not check my email every 2 minutes and in the middle of the night. 

To stop being busy with preparations. 

To stop thinking in timelines. 

To stop being jealous of families who are already bringing their children home and only find pure joy at the news of orphans finding forever families. 

For my boys to meet their sister.
To have an answer for them when they ask if Aven is coming home soon. 

For people to stop asking when she is coming home because clearly she is in my arms. 

To have her in her precious room I have been having so much fun preparing for her. 

To finally introduce her to so many people that have prayed and supported her home.
To not feel weak, but act strong.

For her to. be. HOME. 

And to know that no matter how hard it is once she is here, that she will absolutely know she is loved and has a family forever.
