MEETING OUR SWEET MAKENZIE FOR THE FIRST TIME

SO MAKENZIE AND HER MOM WHERE COMING UP HERE, FOR THE WEEKEND. WE WHERE ALL SO EXCITED TO MEET HER AND HER MOM. SO ON FRIDAY AUGUST 9TH WE DECIDED TO MEET AT LONGHORN STEAKHOUSE, THE PLAN WAS THAT WE WOULD HAVE ZAK COME MEET HER AND HER MOM, PLUS ZAK WANTED TO GIVE HER FLOWERS THAT HE HAD PICKED OUT FOR HER, THEN MY PARENTS WOULD COME AND GET ZAK, EARLIER THAT DAY THE PLAN WAS MY MOM WOULD CALL AFTER SHE PICKED MY DAD UP FROM WORK THEN THEY WOULD COME IN AND GET HIM, BUT AS THE DAY WENT ON MY MOM CALLED AND SAID EM I THINK THAT JOSH OR YOU SHOULD BRING HIM OUT IT MIGHT MAKE HER FEEL UNCOMFORTABLE I SAID THAT'S WHAT I WAS THINKING, SO AFTER WE ALL MEET AND STARTED TALKING MY MOM CALLED TO SAY THEY WHERE THERE, BOTH MAKENZIE AND HER MOM SAID WE WOULD LOVE TO MEET THEM, SO JOSH WENT OUT TO GET THEM, I WAS SO GLAD THAT MY MOM AND DAD GOT TO MEET MAKENZIE AND HERE MOM. IT WAS FUNNY SHE SAID I COULD OF MEET EVERYONE OF YOUR FAMILY'S TONIGHT.  WE WHERE THERE FOR 5 HOURS, YES WE COULD NOT STOP  TALKING. ADOPTION IS A MIRACLE IT IS SO NEAT TO SEE HOW OUR PATHS CROSSED, YOU CAN SEE HEAVENLY FATHERS HAND.  THEY BOTH WHERE SO PRETTY MAKENZIE IS A DOLL SHE HAS LONG BROWN CURLY HAIR,  HER MOM LOOKED SO FAMILIAR, ALSO MY MOM THOUGHT THE SAME THING. IT WAS A NIGHT I WILL NEVER FORGET WE ASK HER IF SHE KNEW WHAT THE BABY WAS SHE SAID HER AND HER MOM THINK A GIRL SHE KEEP CALLING THE BABY A GIRL. THE DAY AFTER I HAD GOT THE EMAIL I WAS THINKING WELL IF IT'S A GIRL I HAVE THE NURSERY ALL READY EXCEPT I WILL CHANGE IT UP A LITTLE BIT I FEEL LIKE HOW I HAD DONE IT WAS FOR KAYLEE, IF IT IS A GIRL I WILL DO A LITTLE CHANGES TO IT, BUT THEN I THOUGHT IF IT'S A BOY I WILL HAVE TO DO THE ROOM ALL OVER, I KNOW I AM CRAZY I STARTED THINKING IF IT'S A BOY I NEED TO FIGURE OUT WHAT COLORS SO I CAN START LOOKING . SO THE NEXT DAY I WAS AT HOME FABRIC'S IN MIDVALE  I STARTED LOOKING AT MATERIAL THAT WOULD GO FOR IN A LITTLE BOYS ROOM, I FOUND SOME ON CLEARANCE THERE WAS NOT THAT MUCH ON IT THE GIRL SAID THEY DON'T HOLD, SO I CALLED MY MOM TO SEE WHERE SHE WAS AT IT WAS FUNNY CUZ SHE WAS JUST UP THE STREET, SHE CAME IN, SHE THOUGHT I WAS CRAZY YES I KNOW I AM. BUT I WAS WORRIED THAT IF IT WAS A BOY AND I WENT BACK TO GET IT AND IT WAS GONE I WOULD BE MAD SO YES I DID BUY THE MATERIAL JUST IN CASE  IT'S A BOY. MAKENZIE IS AMAZING WE COULD NOT FEEL MORE BLESSED, SHE HAS A STRONG TESTIMONY, AND SUCH A SWEET SPIRIT AS WE TALKED IT WAS CLEAR TO BOTH JOSH AND I THAT THIS CHILD NEEDS TO BE IN OUR HOME, ONE DAY WE WILL FIND OUT WHY, MAKENZIE MOM AND FAMILY IS VERY SUPPORTIVE OF HER CHOICE, I LOVED SEEING AND HEARING ABOUT MAKENZIE AS SHE WAS GROWING UP, SHE WAS MAKING JOSH AND I JUST LAUGH WE LOVE HER SENSE OF HUMOR I LOVED HOW SHE WAS TEASING JOSH. OUR LIVES ARE A LOT A LIKE. HER MOM WAS AMAZING AS WELL, AND I KNOW WHEN WE MEET HER DAD HE WILL BE TO, I THINK JOSH AND HIM WILL GET ALONG  WELL. WE ARE SO BLESSED TO HAVE HER AND HER FAMILY IN OUR LIVES, WHAT A SPECIAL PERSON MAKENZIE IS. PS I WILL POST HOW SHE FOUND US.
