arrival



I have a friend.

She is my family.  Like my family is my family. 

She just had a baby. 

For ten months I teared up every time I thought about this baby. 

He is here.  I love him.  He is so good. 

The anticipation, the excitement, and the love, we felt as we waited for him was overwhelming.  His parents and grandmothers and us, the girls, sisters with no blood in common, we waited.

His mama is strong.  She has been waiting for him her whole life. 

He is here.

My heart swells.

I would do anything for him.








Much love,

elena
