Our Forever Princess!

What a difference a day makes, and when prayers are answered. We have ourselves a happy, funny, goofy, singing, dancing, hugging, kissing, saying I love you daughter! It is truly a miracle, but Mariah went to sleep last night after what I can only imagine was the worse day of her life. She woke up a completely different person. She woke up Mariah Hecky.

We had to go back to the Civil Affair Office to finalize our adoption this morning. So we started our morning with a bubble bath, and of course the crown! When we got to the Civil Affairs Office to my dismay, Mariah had to see her caregiver once again, and we had to physically tell the Officials that yes, we indeed wanted to adopt her. (As if???) Once again, Mariah was completely devastated and I was so heartbroken, because she had woke up so happy. I thought we had lost her again, but by the time we got back to the hotel again, the tears had stopped and it was a complete transformation. It is a miracle, that is all I can say. A complete miracle!

Words can not describe how much we are in love with this little girl, and I can not even control the tears when I think of what our lives would be without her. We are truly privilege to have her as our daughter. She is the smartest 5 year old I have ever ever encountered. And she is mine!!!!!!! We get to watch her grow up, we get to watch her laugh every day, smile every day and we could not feel more blessed this very second. Thank you God!!!!!!!!!!!! Thank you God!!!!!!!!!!!! Thank you God!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have posted some videos and pictures and there is no doubt that you to will fall in love!

Oh Mary, that so wasn't fair, BUT God had it all under control. Thank you Jesus for giving Mariah Peace in the storm and I am so glad to hear that she was happy again soon after. That had to be so extremely heart breaking for all of you!!!
