Good fortunes.

Went out for dinner this week at our favorite Thai restaurant….we were excited over the silly fortune cookies we received at the end of our meal. God continues to remind us of His faithfulness is BIG and small ways. There has been a lot of movement on the waiting list over the last few months! Three infant referrals from our adoption agency in February, four in March and one so far in April. Seems like our wait is a little easier as we can see a faint light at the end of this long tunnel. Looking forward to the day we announce our own referral, but for now we are celebrating with others who get to look at the beautiful faces of the newest members of their families.


What we did while we were waiting for YOU:

Went to Colorado, Crater Lake, Seattle and Africa

Bought a Prius

Decorated your room

Spent lots of time with high school students

Started a new hobby - snowshoeing

Studied for a nursing certification & an architectural exam

Practiced cooking and eating African food

Read parenting and adoption books

Picked your pediatrician

Celebrated the birth of your cousin Adelaide

Prayed for you, longed for you and imagined the day you would come home
