My Son
When I look at Liam, I not only see all my hopes and dreams as a mother, but I also see a little bit of myself. It is amazing how God chose this exact child to be my son. As he grows, and I see his personality, I am reminded of my own personality. A lot of Liam's first-born tendencies reflect my personality as a first-born daughter. As time goes by, it will be interesting to see what he becomes and how his personality
blossoms. I will love him no matter what and will enjoy this journey. My prayer is that he imitates our strengths and avoids our weaknesses.
When Liam arrived, I took time to look through my own baby albums. I was astonished to discover that Liam actually looks a little like I did as a baby, which is partially due to the fact that we have the same coloring and the same color of eyes. I would love Liam even if he were green with purple spots. How he looks does not matter to me. He is my son regardless of what he looks like. However, I can't help but marvel at God's plan when I compare my pictures to his. There may not always be this resemblance, but for now it is fun to compare.

"You're The One In My Dreams"
When I was a little girl growing up
I would dream of being your mommy.
I would think about
the songs we would sing,
and the games we would play,
The way I would hold you,
and comfort you, and love you.
Then one day you were here...
and I was your mommy!
It was so incredible, so remarkable, so us!
Because I realized when I was holding you
and comforting you, and loving you,
that you were the one!
You were the one... in my dreams,
when I was a little girl.
You were the one who made me dream
of being a mommy.
Thank you for finding me!

YOU
All babies are a gift.
Some are even surprises.
But YOU, my adopted child
are a treasure!
YOU were not only planned and prepared for;
YOU were a journey we took,
a mission we had our hearts set on,
a treasure so precious!
YOU were worth the wait, worth the tears,
worth all the fears we faced.
Because YOU, our adopted child,
are a treasure!
