First Day of School!

                                         Julia's First (and long awaited) day of Dance!!

25 Months

It's hard to believe that 25 months have passed by on the waitlist. Our kids have grown and changed so much, so we did some re-evaluating and decided to change our age preference from a child less than 2 years old to less than 4 years old.  We are equally excited at the idea of an infant son or an older toddler!  Some days I begin to wonder if this will ever really happen, as major changes occur within Ethiopia and within our agency, but I know that God makes no mistakes and will bring our little man home on the day that He planned long ago.

20 Months!

Today marks 20 months on the Waitlist!!! Keep on tickin'....

2 YEARS

WOW! It was 2 years ago today that I held my breath and pushed the "send" button on our initial applcation to begin the adoption process. In many ways, the days waiting have been slow but the years have been fast.  That is a weird concept I am learning more and more about as I get older.
We are coming up on 18 months on Waitlist and I have no way to speculate how much longer it will be other than- ALOT.  In the meantime, our babies aren's babies anymore. Bella is 12, Drew is 10, Carmen is 7, and Julia is 3 1/2. I. Love. Them.
