Celebrating Karlee in Page


Last night we had a fun party to celebrate Karlee' adoption. My special friend Louise was nice enough to host the party at her home. There were so many wonderful people, of whom have been in a part of my life from childhood, to highschool, and now. I was truly overwhelmed by the love that I felt, I am truly blessed to have so many wonderful people in my life. Everyone there last night has had a special part in Karlee's adoption process. I never thought that moving from Kentucky to Utah would have been so difficult. Everyone in Kentucky had felt like my family. Most everyone knowing our adoption situation, understanding all our ups and downs. Then moving to Utah, and having the adoption just a few months to go, people didn't know our heartaches, and celebrations. My mom would tell me how everyone in Page, was so excited for us, and people would ask my mom and dad how the adoption process was going, and then when we got Karlee, everyone wanted to know how she was doing and when we were coming home. Here in Utah, very few people had made much of our adoption, let alone when we brought Karlee home. I do have two sweet neighbors, whom brought in meals. So my friends in Page it was very important that we were able to celebrate Karlee.

How much fun!! Kaye told me you were over there for a shower. Karlee is an absolute doll!! In fact...the pic of you as a baby looks just like Karlee, minus the dark hair. You seriously look the same! Isn't that weird how that works? She was definitely meant to be in your home.

What a party girl! Karlee just goes from one party to the next! I can't wait to get my hands on her! It's been too long! Please tell your brother and sister in law that our prayers are with them, and if either of you need a babysitter, I am home all day!! I would be happy to take Karlee or Tenney!! We are hoping that everything is okay! Love Ya!!
