Home study completed;
House bought;
Paperwork filed;
Fly to Uganda;
Meet my girly every day but each day she returns ‘home’ and not to me;
Court room drama - judge says no;
Judge offers a lifeline, we grab it;
So. Much. Waiting.
We wait.
Days seem endless.
And then, the call comes through...
Judge says yes!
Scared little girl leaves friends and carers and moves in with me.
I get to put her to bed and know she’s safe for the very first time in her little 9 years.
And there’ll be bedtime stories, and singing, and fun, and laughter, and days out, and lifelong friends made along the way.
Finally a family......a forever family!
7 years ago today we became a family.
Happy Gotcha day precious girl.
I love you just as you are.
