Chapter 1

"Well here goes. We are the Taylors. I'm Scott and this is my wife Kelly. We are both 32 years old. We met our junior year in college. We didn't date right away just became close friends. I was the RA in Kelly's dorm. Graduation day was the day we decided to make the plans to go on a date and have been together ever since. We got married 5 years ago and decided right away to start a family. We moved to a nice home in a nice community and started trying for a baby. We got pregnant within the first 3 months but when she was 7 weeks along we lost the baby. We tried again for the next 3 years with no luck. We saw a fertility specialist who told us that because of Kelly's progesterone level she would never be able to carry a baby to term. We coped with the news and then decided to take on the world of adoption. In
only 2 short months the agency we filed through called us and said that there was a 15 year old girl who was 8 months pregnant with a little girl and wanted us to be her baby's parents. The baby was born 3 weeks later. We brought little Alexis home and after 3 days the birth mother decided she wanted her back. We had no choice but to give her back. After waiting almost another year for someone else to pick us we are here, looking into international adoption."

"I'm so sorry about everything that has happened for the both of you." Said Mrs. Weslo the adoption attorney the Taylors had made the appointment to see almost 2 weeks ago. She was an nice woman probably around their same age. "I think that international adoption is a smart choice for you, its one of the most easiest adoptions there is." Mrs. Welso continued. "Thats good, I think its really what we are looking for." Said Scott. "Well here are a few forms for you and your wife to fill out and then I will get you into the computers and get your profile going. From there we will match you up with different children who match your specific wants." She said. She excused herself and the Taylors were left alone to fill out the paperwork. "Well hunny are we ready for this?" Scott asked looking at Kelly. She looked back at him and just nodded her head. She had been so nervous about the whole thing she wasn't sure what to say. Scott filled out the paperwork and then him and Kelly signed. Mrs. Welso came back in and said her goodbyes to the Taylors and started working on their file.

The whole way home Kelly was quiet. She had barely said 2 words since they woke up that morning. Scott knew she was scared. They had already lost so much they had no idea what type of risk they were taking in this endeavor. They had waited so long to have a baby and now they didn't even know if they would get a baby through this, they may only have older children. Kelly was just so nervous. They got home pretty late and decided to order take out from their favorite Chinese place. While they were eating Kelly broke down in tears. "I don't want an older child Scott, we have a nursery set up, I just want a baby." She sobbed so hard Scott thought she was going to hyperventilate. He went over to her chair and gave her a big hug and kiss. "Sweety I'm sure Mrs. Weslo will find us a baby. She knows thats what we are looking for. She will do what she can for us." Scott said. Kelly looked up at her and smiled. She felt safe in his arms. She felt like nothing could go wrong.

Chapter 2

"I guess you can say that not much out of the ordinary happened we lived our days on a day to day basis. Everything was normal until that Thursday night."

"How was your day at work Scott?" Kelly asked

"Pretty slow, I had a meeting in the morning and then just a lot of paperwork." He said. Scott worked for a big software company and was working his way up to a corporate position. He had been there for 5 years now and so far none of the "big wigs" seemed to notice him.

"Well I'm glad you had a good day. I tried to do some writing today but nothing seems to be clicking with my mind right now." Kelly said. She was an aspiring writer who was trying hard to get her first book published. She had many short stories but nothing with just her name on it yet.

"I'm sure it will come to you soon, it always seems to hit you when you least expect it." Scott said smiling.

They continued to go back and forth like that for a few minutes when the phone rang. "Now who could be calling at this hour, its dinner time for christs sakes." Scott said. Kelly set her fork down and went to answer the phone. She knew how Scott was and if anyone called the house after 8 someone better be dying or he wasn't happy.

"Hello" Kelly said in her phone voice that she was so good at using.

Scott couldnt make out exactly what was being said on the other line but from Kelly's ear to ear grin that it had to have been something good. Scott watched as Kelly scrambled around in drawers for a pad of paper and pen and start scribbling something down. From what he heard he figured it was just something for her book. Probably just more figures for costs and such. The conversation was winding down after about 5 minutes of Kelly's note taking and to be honest Scott was getting anxious to hear what was going on.

Finally after what felt like the longest phone conversation ever Kelly came back to the table. She sat down and picked up her fork again and pushed her peas around on the plate.

"Ok tell me what is going on please." Said Scott.

Kelly looked up at him and beamed a huge smile.

"That was Jennifer Welso, seems that there is a woman in North Korea just dropped off her little girl at an orphanage and Jennifer wants us to come by and look at the profile tomorrow." Kelly said

"Oh Kel thats awesome sweety. Did she say how long it would take and everything." Scott asked

"Nothing other than the little girl is one week old and seems to be in good health. She said that we have to go and look at the profile tomorrow at 1pm and then from there we take a few days to decided if we want her or not." Kelly looked at her plate then looked up at Scott who was quiet.

"Scott something about this little girl just feels right and I haven't even seen her yet. I hate the thought of going there and saying I don't want her. Of course I want her. She is a baby and I want a baby." Kelly said almost in tears.

Scott stood up and took Kelly by the hand down the hall to the Nursery that the hadn't touched since they lost Alexis. Scott opened up the door and they took a few steps inside the room and just stood there for a few moment. Scott turned to Kelly and said.

"There are no if ands or buts, that little girl is our baby."
