here is a sweet song my heart is singing this Christmas! It’s about a China adoption—but my heart is still singing it to our baby who we can’t WAIT to have in our arms in 2010!!! I just love this song–and to make it even more special it’s performed/sung by some dear friends of our […]

Category Archives: Inspirational OK–sweet readers you know I’m a writer…and writer’s usually = thinkers. And thinkers usually really think BEFORE they write…and HAVE everything flowing nicely, pieces put together…and a theme in mind before they even start. Today’s post…bear with me. Actually–why don’t you come with me instead? My mind keeps drifting to 3 different encounters I have […] Love it! May your day be blessed today 🙂 I am with you on the wanting it to be perfect, trying to interfere in the kids’ projects……that is where daddy is usually better at that than me. Never really thought of it in that perspective. Praise God for His Love even when……..life isn’t perfect! Loved this post! The journey of adopting has really made me think about the little things in my world too. All the expectations of our culture are so “me” centered. Great points and I love how you always pull it together at the end! I love reading about “Andrea world!” Like everyone said while we were in EA, you are a great story teller! Your the best! Loved this post… I am struggling with the same questions–I am finding it hard to go about my everyday life without being, for lack of a better word, haunted by images and thoughts of children (and adults) who are without the basics of life, while my life is a sick abundance in comparison. This adoption Journey sure is life changing! Merry Christmas to you and your family! Up late and just read this post. It really spoke to me Andrea. You are a beautiful writer! 🙂  We received out new waitlist number last week in perfect timing (from 28 to 26). I had been discouraged earlier in the week realizing that I was standing in a line—what felt like a long line—while there were and are approximately 145,000,000 orphans in the world. To me, the line waiting didn’t (and doesn’t) always […] LOVE the numbers on the stairs idea! that idea just might get stolen by a certain blog reader! 🙂 I love reading about your journey…i feel like i am reading my own journal!! hugs- Yay! Steal away Emily!!! Isn't that the MOST fun! We bought numbers to go on the stairs of our basement too. So fun. I love hearing little voices count the numbers as they go up:). So sweet! Those are 4" in height. Just FYI as you scout out the etsy number sellers. I may go find the girl I bought from and I can send ya the link if you need it! love the steps! For starters…you can get an AMEN. God doesn't show up a day late. He is more concerned about timing than TIME. His timing is perfect. Your child isn't ready yet and so the wait on the list is until the child He has chosen for your family is ready. And…I think I may just need those numbers. I LOVE THEM. Cute !!! AMEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Did you ready your e-mail??? I can't wait to hear what beautiful words pour forth….we could just use the above post!!!! LOVE it and LOVE the numbers!!!! Oh man… you make me want stairs now!! those numbers are just the CUTEST things ever!  Last night, we celebrated Laney’s 4th birthday with her sweet little friends (pictures to follow later)…her gift from momma and daddy was two tickets to see the Rockettes Radio City Christmas Spectacular. It was an entertaining show to say the least… …but I’ll confess–after you’ve seen the girls kick once…for me–that’s plenty. Don’t get me […] Very beautiful. Happy Birthday to your sweet daughter. Such beautiful thoughts. Thanks for sharing. cris Exciting news for a family just behind us on the waitlist. On Monday, our agency emailed all of the families on the waitlist and shared a need of 2 beautiful boys that just came into the orphanage. The boys are almost 2 and 4…and lemme tell ya…they are PRECIOUS! I can’t share their picture, but […] Goosebumps….. I just love this!!!!!!!!!!!!! Blessings abound everywhere I look and you are one of those blessings for me. THANKYOU!!! This is just $1000 per day. This is easy and absolutely can be done! Thank You !!!!!!!! What a blessing to have you advocate for us. We are watching God work a miracle this week. Cris |
