“Families don't have to match.You don't have to look like someone else to love them.”
Leigh Anne Tuohy

My sweet little babies,
One dressed in blue
Asleep with your teddy
And missing one shoe.

Nearby your sister,
Dressed darling in pink,
Holds fast to her dolly,
Peter Pan's friend, Tink.

It took time to reach us,
It took patience and faith,
But the joy that you've brought us
Made you worth the wait.

For though not of our blood,
Nor even our race,
It doesn't matter to us
Wherever your birthplace.

We believe you were chosen,
As we were chosen too,
By God and His angels
To be a family true .

So from now to forever
We are bound with love,
A blessing beyond measure
From Heaven above.
