Waiting for Micalee...: It's finally happening!!!!

This Morning in China

This morning in China a mother cries
She’ll never forget her daughter’s eyes
Her heart is broken and filled with pain
The tears run down like falling rain
She has no choice but to leave her there
The cost of keeping is too much to bear
She hopes her daughter will one day know
True love can be found in letting her go.

This morning in China a baby cries
Hungry and scared as tears fill her eyes
Her mother has left her in this public place
Another lost daughter of the Chinese race
Someone passing by has heard her soft moan
She’s soon quickly taken to a foster home
It’s there she’ll reside in the care of another
Until she’s adopted by a brand new mother.

That very same moment, in the U.S.A.
A women cries as she starts to pray
Her heart is heavy but filled with much love
She prays for a daughter she thinks the world of
“Dear Jesus I ask that your arms would be
Wrapped tightly around the one picked for me
Guard her in China ‘til I make my way
And then in my arms forever she’ll stay”.

I am so excited for you! I have held my breath over the last couple of weeks and prayed that you would have your referral soon.

I am the one who works up at LSU and knew Jeannie.
