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.

Birthdays, Boys, Ikea, and Really Good Friends

Marmie and I just returned from a few wonderful days visiting a dear friend who lives a few hrs away from me. We spent many hours just chatting...catching up. Good friends never miss a beat. 

We went to Ikea (my first time which was AMAZING), sipped yummy hot drinks, and enjoyed the days of unexpected sunshine. She and her husband are expecting their first baby and found out on the day we got there that it is a little boy! We are so excited.
IKEA...WOW

All three of us had a pedicure to celebrate my birthday...AM and I painted out toenails BLUE for BOY!! The little lady who gave us the pedicure was from Vietnam She proclaimed that this was "The year of the dragon, Good year for having a good strong boy!" I will never forget that.




My beautiful and sweet friend AM and me
