Just waiting......


Here is another picture of Birgit. I took this during my trip to visit her. I can hardly stand the waiting to be able to go and get her. I spend every day wondering what she is thinking or doing. Does she think about us? I did get to leave her with some family pictures. Maybe she is looking at them and getting some comfort from knowing that this is going to be her family.
