Sharing

I am truly amazed at how God can use a sinner like me for his glory.

A few weeks ago I was asked to share our adoption story with a group called "A child's Hope". Instantly I was thrilled as my closest friends know how passionate I am on promoting adoption.

Tonight I was honored to speak on behalf of the fatherless. I know I am not a great public speaker but it is so humbling to know that I may play a small roll in encouraging others to follow in our path.

I dragged both Lucy and Wyatt with me in hopes that seeing their little faces would make an impact!

My prayer tonight is that just one person in the room would be blessed by choosing adoption as I have and that a seed has been planted!

On another note I leave you with this special event that took place this week. Over the last two months Wyatt has been home he has obtained an obsession with school buses. He loves that they are big, yellow and pic up kids! Well with permission of the district superintendent on Tuesday we rode a Bus! And yes it was yellow and big. We drove home over 50-60 kids in an hour and a half it dawned on me that a lot of good goes on in this world! Something so simple yet important in the eyes of a child!

Spring 2013

Today was fabulous! Lucy, Wyatt and I enjoyed the entire day outside. It was 67, sunny and beautiful.

We took our favorite stroller for the loop around our country block, cleaned flower beds, blew bubbles, side walk chalk, bikes and played on the swing set for over 6 hours:) it was our first real spring day!

This is by far the funniest photo of Wyatt driving Lucy's princess car with her sunglasses on.




Then jb found him and fixed him up!



Lucy my sweet princess as usual bribed him to drive her around so she could blow bubbles!


Life is hard!

4th birthday

Today was our turkeys 4th birthday!



He fully gets that he is 4, that the gifts are for him and that he really likes chocolate cake!
Today we also received his certificate of citizenship from immigration and now we can start on the road to a re-adoption process and obtain a social security card and then an American birth certificate.
Life at home with a forever family has had some downs like weird bonding issues but the ups have clearly out number!! Sunday on the way to Easter church the four of us jammed out in the car to Bon Jovi's living on a prayer. How hilarious as jb driving playing the drums, Wyatt rocking the air guitar and Lucy and I rocking out singing! It was totally hilarious!
It amazes me at how many people ask us to share details of our adoptions and I can only pray that by our response that maybe just maybe someone would follow in our path to bring a child out of poverty to a forever family.

It also amazes me that our great God matched us with this little boy across the world knowing he would fit in our family and touch our hearts forever. It definitely feels like he belongs here:)
