I Get To Be The One

I Get to be The One, by JJ Heller

Well hello.

Little Baby.

Your eyes have never seen the sun.

You should know

Little baby.

That I Am the Lucky One.

I get to be the one to hold your hand.

I get to be the one.

Through Birthdays and broken bones.

I'll be there to watch you grow

I get to be the one.

Don't feel alone now. 

Little baby.

Do you hear me singing you a song.

I can't wait to show you

Little baby.

How to crawl

How to walk

How to run

I get to be the one to hold your hand

I get to be the one.

Through birthdays and broken bones

I'll be there to watch you grow

I get to be the one.

How does someone so small

Hold my heart so tightly 

I don't even know you

I love you completely

I get to be the one to hold your hand

I get to be the one.

Through birthdays and broken bones

I'll be there to watch you grow

I get to be the one

I get to be the one to hold your hand 

I get to be the one

Through birthdays and broken bones 

I'll be there to watch you grow

I get to be the one.

I am so lucky, that I get to watch him grow. And though I may not be the one to hold his hand and all that other awesomeness, I get to be the one who gave him it!  I am so glad that R & S get to be "the ones".  I found this song just a couple days ago. I love it.  Its hard not to find a song and tie it into adoption. Many songs have NOTHING to do with it, but heck, they sure fit:).  Life is ever changing and I am hoping to be up and running with new posts, new style, new everything shortly.  To all those amazing Adoptive Parents, Hopeful Adoptive couples, and families.... I am so happy you were chosen to be "the ones."

And I am FINALLY Back

I feel refreshed. and excited to finally get back to this blog!  Its been a crazy few months. 

So here is a little blurb of an amazing woman, Tamra, who I get to finally meet in real life in a few weeks!

She speaks so eloquently. And I am pretty sure that i've posted this before, oh well.

Go visit Youtube and listen to this amazing woman!!! And i'll be back soon ya'll.

Tamra: And her Adoption Love

I'm coming up on having been a Birth Mother for 10 years.  I didn't think it would be scary... but it is.

Glad to be back. Glad to continue on. Though, I think a few of the dynamics will change:)

Thanks so much

Jena

awe mann...

This has not been an intentional loss of blogging in the world of adoption.  Though its been FAR to long, and I've DESPERATELY needed to update this thing, and continue with my story, and the stories of others I met because of this story.... well ... its not gonna be happening for a while.

First I was going to try and make this page all cute and fun and all that awesomeness that i like to pretend that I am. THEN, one amazing blessing after another has come our way and I got to go to Washington for my Loveie Alyssa's wedding. Then to SLC to help a friends and all sorts of other goodness.  The best being our own home FINALLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And though this ooey gooey goodness of having our own house is amazing. I do not have the Internet for the time being :( BOO HOO.  But, alas, unpacking boxes that haven't seen the light of day in 4 years leads us to many many treasures.  Like pictures of my E and his family, 4 years ago!  Its been a while since I've hung pictures and such.

I PROMISE, when I get back, there will be such wholesome goodness on here. Mostly, because we are coming up on little mans TENTH birthday! TEN people 10, tenth, deis(spell check please), its huge, and though NOTHING has been sent... lots has been done each month for this anniversary and birthday of goodness!  OH i love them!

So - brb - asap - and all those other blurbs of letters i don't ever understand!!
