I wanted to share a special part of Rosie's journey to us. Many months ago, my dear friend Jaci and her husband Bob sent us a beautiful gift. It was a "Mama doll" from China. Their note to us was that it was their hope that she would help with bringing Rosie to us. We absolutely loved it and put it in a special spot in our bedroom. We knew that she would somehow play a part in getting our sweet Rosie girl. Then, on Valentine's day this year (Rosie's 1st birthday), they sent a big box of chocolate covered fortune cookies, with another note saying that hopefully they would help bring Rosie to us soon. Also, in the meantime, we had won a raffle gift at Chinese New Year that was a beautiful lady bug key chain. And it had been donated by another dear friend, Nita. We were both thrilled when we won it. I placed the key chain in our bedroom, next to the "Mama doll" and we all enjoyed the fortune cookies. It's amazing to think that on the 22nd of February, we got the call for Rosie. I think that all of those little "helpers" really helped! :-))
