We finally meet!





It's February 18th and we have our daughter! We are tired after a good but long day but wanted to send a quick update. All is going well. We have decided to keep Emma as our daughter's name as it has been her name for over 2 years and we thought it would make the transition easier. So, Katelyn is Emma. Sorry for the confusion! Emma is the sweetest little girl with a wonderful smile and a great laugh. What fun we are having taking care of her dollies, doing hair and painting fingernails. She doesn't like coming into our hotel room, but once in, she settles down with a little Dora the Explorer video which her amazing foster family sent.



So, thank you for your prayers. We are blessed in so many unexpected ways. We can't wait to tell you more in the days to come!
