Where I am...

I started this adoption journey almost four years ago. There have been many unexpected twists and turns but now I am on the road to adopting a baby girl from Russia. Although not her real name we will call her...Hope. For it symbolizes what she is. A miracle, sometimes a dream, always longed and prayed for. With all current paperwork completed all that stands in my way is finances. I invite you to follow my journey as my faith is tested, my belief grows deeper, and soon my Hope will be placed in my arms after so long living in my heart...May you be inspired, encouraged, humored, provoked to think, and always drawn closer to God.

The Many Faces of Sugar Pea

    Sugar Pea is almost three years old and every inch of her is sweet. Funny, determined, shy, confident. She is a pink-loving, purse-holding, I-don't-mind-if-I-get-dirty kinda girl. 
      Every moment I spend with her reveals a little more of the miracle she is, the person she will become. Unfolding like a rare blossom she awakens each day a little more amazing. I am so blessed to be her auntie. I see my sister, my mother...myself in her. 
      Her enormous blue eyes framed with a covetous number of dark lashes makes me wonder if anything could be more perfect. She has more expressions that any child I have ever seen. Here are just a few. 
                 Enjoy!

















 
I love you baby girl!
