Last year when I was making a video for my sister about her adoption from Kazakhstan, I came upon this song on the internet. It is called Waiting, The Adoption Song. The guy who wrote this song was selling it for $1.50, as a fundraiser to get his daughter home! It worked, and she has been home since January 2009. This link will let you listen to a preview of the song. Once I heard it, I couldn't get it out of my head. This link will also let you read the lyrics. I highly recommend you get this song! It is the heart cry of every parent who is adopting.

Little Maia has been home since April 2, 2008. You can see the video (which also has the Waiting song in its entirety) on my sister's blog, as I have no idea how to add a video here. I'm slow like that. This video gives a ten minute walk down memory lane, about Maia's bonding time with my sister and my mom in Kazakhstan, and her homecoming at the airport. I still cry every time. Maia is a gift! (I would love to add a picture of Maia here to go with this little paragraph, but again, I have no idea how to do that. I can add a picture with no problem, but it always ends up at the beginning of the post, instead of exactly where I want it. Any suggestions?)
PS--also no clue how to add a link! I am using the "insert link" thing, but it is not showing up! This is all so above my head. Help!
