Guess what?......................




"If you guessed that the judge gave up my certified copies, you are RIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! My Mommy and Daddy and my big brother, Jake, are coming to get me SOON!!! All of the prayers that went up to Heaven for me have been answered. Thank you all so much. I can't wait to meet all of these people that love me so much. Mommy did not know that when I gave her this BIG smile, she would need it to post my freedom from Family Court! Now, can I ask you for one more thing?.... I would like to be home before my Mommy and Daddy's fingerprints expire, which is Oct. 12. So, please say a quick prayer for that and stay tuned..."


Love,
Bella--soon to be Salemi! :)

YEAH! YEAH! YEAH! We are so excited at the Moran house!! Thank you Jesus! One day, when you are holding sweet Bella- at your own house here in Louisana, you will be able to look back at this amazing journey and think about the long "labor and delivery" you've experienced...and you will be in awe of all that you've endured! You should be so proud of the strength that you were able to find within yourself throughout this incredibly trying time in your life! And...it will certainly all be worth it!

Love,
Holly

I PRAISE you God for finally bringing to a joyful end my vicarious 2nd adoption!!!!! Seriously Amanda, I have been just so THRILLED for you tonight!!! I know your phone must have died by now with all the calls you've probably been making/receiving. I've been DYING to talk to you again (I had 2 boys in timeout when you called so I need MORE details!)

I just know Susana is going to get Bella home in the next 3 weeks. I just know it. She will do a great job for you. :-) :-) :-)

Our prayers have been heard and answered! God has performed yet another miracle! I can't tell you how happy I am for your family right now!!!!!! Oh my gosh...this is AWESOME!!!!!! And we WILL get this baby home well before October 12th!

OK, let's get this wrapped up now ! Remember . . . you serve an on-time God and He is never late and at this point any day past Oct. 12th is late, so no need to fret . . . right ?

Bella,
We are so excited for you and we look forward to seeing your beautiful, smiling face in pictures when your mommy and daddy bring you home! And - it's no problem to send up some prayers about those fingerprints. We've been including you for a while now. We'll keep it up - and we're very happy to do it. Praise the Lord!
Love,
Billie and Rosie

Andrea said...

I could scream right now!!!!!!!! CONGRATULATIONS!!! Can't wait until you have her home!

YIPPPPEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!

Our journey has had too many similarities that I just KNEW your miracle couldn't be too far behind ours!!! Our prayers have been answered!!!! I am over the moon excited for you!!!!!!!!!! And YES, I sure hope that you will bring her home before your prints expire!! In case you didn't know, they are currently waiving the fingerprint fee, so if you don't have a date within the next 2 weeks, do what you need to do to get an appointment scheduled just in case. I'd hate for you to have to go thru the whole fingerprint fiasco we did.

I can't wait to hear more and to see some new pictures in the near future.

We are sooooo happy for you!!!!!
