So sweet! I know I commented above, but I wanted to answer your song question. If you scroll down to the bottom of my blog page there is a song list:)...it is an add-on for the blog and I think I put 20 songs on there. The one you are asking about "How long do you want to be loved..." is "Lullaby" by The Dixie Chicks. Another awesome one is the one by Michael McLean called "Something Perfect"...makes me cry every time. He made several letters into songs for bmoms and adoptive moms...amazing songs. So amazing I will make a copy for you and send it! You have to hear "The Gift We Could Not Give Each Other"...yes, music to hold our DDs close and just stare at these perfect, little miracles:)...Hugs...Lori:-)
We started trying to have a baby in August 2004. We did IUIs, one IVF, acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine. Finally I put away the thermometer, and we were happy to pursue adoption. Our daughter, Pinecone, was born July 2, 2009. Her adoption was finalized November 20, 2009. It was all worth it.
