Charley Moon and Mommy - July 2013 |
Officially got TA! |
Charley Moon giving Amy some kisses! |
When I met Kayla for the first time, I had an intrinsic feeling that she and I would become good friends and I'm so happy I was right! Not only has she taught be about this program and paved the way for me in the Therapy department, but she has become my dear friend, mentor and role model. I know it may seem naive to still have role models, but what can I say? I do! I greatly admire the relentless passion and love for Charley Moon that has overcome Kayla's life. I also aspire to be a mother who fervently seeks the Lord on her child's behalf and that allows her life to be so overcome with love that she is willing to bear the hurts and pains that so often accompany life and love. I'm so thankful to have both Kayla and Charley Moon in my life; their story has changed my life and allowed me to see into a different realm of the adoption world. Thank you both for being yourselves and for allowing me to be apart of your journey. I'm truly grateful!
To Kayla:
Thank you for accepting God's call to China and for adopting Charley Moon! As much as you have allowed her to change your life, you both have changed mine. I've enjoyed getting to see the incredible things that God has done for you and through you on this journey, and I'm so excited to see where He leads you next. I would also like to say thank-you for believing in me and having the faith to see my call to China when I couldn't. I have to admit part of me thought you were a little crazy that first summer, when you said that you knew I'd come back someday... and look at me now! I'm so grateful to know that I have you as my friend. Today's the day you've been waiting for, next stop Mêiguó! This is such an exciting day and I'm so grateful to be able to witness it! Always remember: She's JUST like you! You are loved my friend!
To Charley Moon:
I know you can't read this, but I'd like you to know that it's been an honor to see you grow up into the spunky and lovely girl that you have become. I have greatly treasured all of our little moments spent playing, singing, dancing, and snuggling together. You must know that your sweet kisses, gentle spirit, and pure soul have touched many lives, including mine, and I'm confident that you will continue to touch thousands more as you grow. My hope and prayer for you is that, you would grow up to become a woman who passionately follows her heart and the things of God. May your pleasant and joyful spirit never loose it's infectiousness! I love you Cmyk!
