We opened the door and our daughter walked right in!
We got a big surprise when we got to our hotel. Our guide told us Eden was already here and we could take her with us tonight if we wanted. Immediately we said, "Yes!" So an hour and a half later they walked right in. She walked in and came to me and wrapped her arms around me. The director and vice director came in and talked with us for a little bit. They let us ask questions about her daily routine. She has been happy and played with us all evening. She slept really good last night and is just starting to wake up now. She did amazing and we couldn't have asked for it to go better. We have to leave now to meet with the officials. We will post more later. Love Sheila

Sheila,
I have been following you and as I watched you with your daughter tears were streaming and my throat had a huge lump! Those precious arms around your neck.....God has certainly blessed Eden with a wonderful Mommy & Daddy! Keep us posted here so your second church family can continue to pray for your return!!
Love,

Oh my gosh - what a beauty! I can't wait to see some more pics of your beautiful little girl. I know it has been a long 2 years for you guys, but God has shown Himself faithful once again! I know that Eden Grace was well worth the wait! And from your wonderful reception, it sounds like your family has already been written on her heart! We love you!
