we flew across the rainbow,
    hoping our dreams would come true,
          looking for a gift from God,
              and that's where we found you.

The Verne's Adoption Story

**RAINBOW DREAMS**
For this child I prayed, and the Lord has granted my petition made to Him. - 1 Samuel 1:27
Friday, March 03, 2006
Longing for a child to love,
I'd wish upon the stars above.
In my heart I always knew,
A part of me was meant for you.

I think how happy we will be,
Once I adopt you,& you adopt me.

I dream of all the joy you'll bring,
Imagining even the littlest things.
The way it will feel to hold you tight
& tuck you in every night.

The drawings on the refrigerator door
& childhhod toys across the floor,
The favorite stories read again & again
& hours of fun with make believe frinds.

The day you took my outstretched hand
A journey ended but our love began.
Still mesmerized by your sweet face
Still warmed inside by our first embrace.

I promised to give you a happy home
& a loving family all your own.
A house you've now made complete
with laughter,smiles & tiny feet.

A parent is one who guides the way
Know I will be there every day
Rest easy as each night you sleep
A lifetime of love is yours to keep

Longing for a child to love
I'd wish apon the stars above.
In my heart I always knew
A part of me belonged to you.
