Dear Della

Hi my baby girl.

It's Christmas night.  I thought about you a lot today, I cried a lot too.  You were the first little blessing I thought of this morning, when I woke up.  I've felt physically sick all day, I just wish you knew how cherished you are.  I just wish you knew the joy of Christmas, and family.  I love you baby girl, and I'm getting you a present for your keepsake box.  I worry about you, I have nightmares that you aren't being treated like the my baby girl should be treated.  I miss you, and wish you were home, safe, tucked into bed, with presents, and a tummy full of Christmas dinner.  

Tears are flowing tonight, over you baby girl, yes I worry, and cry just like a mama would.  I love and miss you, just like a mama would.   Just like a mama, I wish you were home, I wish you were loved, I wish I knew that you were "okay",  I pray for you everyday, I have your pictures hanging in my room.

This Christmas...my heart hurts. For you baby girl, all for you.   If I could give all my presents, dinner, clothes, house, food, anything to get you in a mamas arms, I would baby girl, I really would.

I love you baby girl.

$1200 By June

3 Days ago we got some news, it was sad news, heartbreaking news, Della lost her family.  Her family (who adores her so, so, so, so, much) was not able to continue with the adoption of Della.  They are so sad, and are hurting very much.  Would you pray for them?

I'm back on the hunt to find another family to bring Della home, the family that couldn't continue with their adoption of Della is offering a $10,000 donation to any family that can bring Della home.   They are truly heartbroken, they just want their girly to be home, safe, and loved.    Will you help us find Della a new family?  She desperately needs a family, she will be 12 in June, thirteen years is far too long for a child to go without ever feeling love.

I came up with $1200 For 12.  Della's grant is currently at $720, Della turns 12 years old in June (As stated above.) so my goal is to get her grant to $1300 by June!  While I raise this money, I will hopefully be able to get the word out about Della, and a new family will step up!   I am going to try and do a few different fundraisers, as well as sell some hats that I will be making!  I am determined to try my absolute hardest to raise her grant, and find her a new family.  Will you help me, help Della?  Will you consider donating to her grant?

Dear Della,

Hey there lovey,

I have waited for so long to write you this letter, and I am still in shock that this is actually happening, but you sweet girl have been chosen.  Yes, you read that write....You have been chosen, and someone wants you to be their daughter!

Oh sweet pea, you have no clue how beautiful my heart feels to be able to use those two words, chosen and daughter, when describing your future.  A family is working, so hard, to come and rescue you!  It makes my heart so happy that you have a family!   Wow, this post is just full of beautiful words.

You are loved.

You have been chosen.

You have a family.

I love you sweet girl, I really do.
Love, me.

Dear Della,

Oh sweet girl!  I am waiting so impatiently to receive more photos and hopefully video of you too!  I have a friend that is visiting the orphanage where you are, and I asked her to find you for me.  She said she would do so gladly, and get some photos and videos too!  My heart is happy, and excited to get updated pictures of you!  I cannot wait! :)  When I receive the photos I will make a post!  She should get to where you are, on Sunday so hopefully I will get them soon!

Bound

As I sat and looked at this picture of Della...

I started to think about how, with her wrist and ankle tied like that she has maybe two positions she can be in.  She can be in her current position, and she would lay on her side.  But even then she can't lay down comfortably, because her limbs are bound to the crib.  She can't sit up, because her limbs are bound.  She can't lay on her back, because her limbs are bound.  This is pure torture for this sweet one, I honestly don't understand how you could do this to a child and just walk away.  Someone will save you love, hopefully it will be soon.

Della's Lovey.

Two posts in one day, I know I'm on a roll!  ;)  I just wanted to stop by and show you all the lovey that I bought Della today.   It's a little Koala bear, that is orange.  Too cute!

Happy Birthday Dear Girl!

Today is the today that I have chosen to write your birthday post.  The first birthday of yours that will be celebrated, where you will be loved even if I am half way across the world.   I'm working as fast as I can to find you a family, to get you out of that prison.  This will be your last birthday spent locked up, tucked away and forgotten.  God is softening hearts, preparing homes, and opening arms just for you.  Because you are important, you are worth it, you are not a mistake, God knows the plans He has for you.



This is the inside of your card, these are the few sweet words that brought tears to my eyes.   Because you are very, very, special.  To not only me, but a lot of people.  We all see your potential and want the best for you lovely girl.

I bought you a crown, a crown for a princess that she would wear upon her head, to show her royalty. It's a symbol of importance, which is why it's going in your keepsake box.  Because you are important, you are loved, and you are held high in the eyes of God.














The front of your card.  I wish I could have found something a little more girlie, but none of them fit the occasion.  The words in this card, fit perfectly though.   So I was okay with this one.  :)













Well sweet one, I hope your birthday (Whatever day it may be.) is as good as it is humanly possible while living where you live.  I hope one of the nannies, shows you some patience and cuddles you just for a moment.  Kisses your head, holds your hand.  I'm praying that God softens their hearts towards you.

I love you Della,
Love sissy.
