What a difference a few days can make!


Last week was full of good things. We celebrated our two year LID anniversary, had a visit from our social worker to update our home study report, and had our 14th wedding anniversary! Doug and I spent the weekend celebrating our anniversary by eating out, going shopping, giving gifts to each other, going to the movies, laying by the pool...all of our favorite things! Life felt good!


This week, however, it feels as if the rug has been pulled out from under us. Due to circumstance beyond our control, our adoption has been placed in jeopardy. We are doing everything in our power to try to secure our position, but are uncertain as to how much of a positive effect our efforts will have on the fate of our family.


My heart goes out to all those families who, like us, are being faced with this uncertainty.

Hang in there... we are in this with you and (not to sound too dramatic) will fight until the end to get our girls. Thank you for all your support and friendship! :)

You are great!

Thanks so much for calling and emailing me the other day. Thank goodness for friends like you who are going through this with me! I love roller coasters, but I'm really ready for this one to end. We are so close! It will happen. God is in control...

Yes - hang in there! I'm no big fan of rollercoasters. Our love is with you.
