My Beautiful Caylie:I have waited a very long time for you. I know God put us together for a reason...for you, a Mommy who will love you and cherish you and show you what the world has to offer you and for me, a daughter to fill a void in my heart that has been there for a very long time.
I know life has started out rough for you and I imagine that your birth Mommy must love you very much because she did not want to see you suffer...she must have wanted more for you, baby girl. I know that life will continue to be difficult for you until your Daddy and I can bring you home and share our lives with you.
Meeting you two weeks ago was the most precious moment of my life. I will be honest, at first Daddy and I were worried because you are so very tiny but that is only your body sweetheart, your spirit is as big as the sky and your will is so strong!! We were so proud of you for not crying when you were left with us. We are proud of you for lots of reasons...the way you gave kisses to your froggy, the way you learned how to clap your hands and your determination to stand up on those tiny little legs of yours. I know it is only a matter of time before you start walking and then look out everyone - because you will be hard to keep up with!!
Leaving you on Sunday morning nearly broke my heart and you haven't left my mind for one second! I see you when I wake up in the morning and I see you when I close my eyes at night and I pray that you received just one kiss or hug from someone during the day....maybe from one of your caregivers, or one of the older children in the orphanage or maybe even from Dinora. Even more so, I pray that you are healthy and that you are getting stronger every day. Please baby, just hang on as we are working very hard to bring you home.
Caylie, I love you from the bottom of my heart and promise you a safe and secure life. I promise to always respect you and talk with you about the obstacles that life will throw your way and to give you every advantage that I am capable of giving. I promise to be someone you can rely on, someone who will never let you down as long as I can help it, and to be someone who will help you to grow into a kind and giving young lady. I promise to give you my very best.
Until we meet again sweet angel...stay safe and know that I love you.
Mommy Kelly
