Two years...and counting

Today marks our 2 year LID-versary waiting for our daughter. When we first began this journey in late November 2005, it was supposed to be only an 11-13 month wait. This is definitely not what we had planned, but God had his own plan! I know she will be "worth the wait," but it sure is difficult waiting! God is trying to teach me patience and I suppose I'm not a great student - I must need more practice!

Warmer Weather!

We had a very nice spring break. We played outside, went to the movies (Horton Hears a Who), went roller skating, and had friends over. It ended way too soon, but we did have a blast!

One week and counting until the mini! I hope that I survive. I was supposed to run 6 miles today, but my ankle/shin started hurting so I stopped. I don't want to get injured before Saturday. I'm sure I'll be fine. I'm planning to take before and after pictures! Check back next weekend!

Reese got to buy Alvin and the Chipmunks dvd and cd with his birthday money. They have been watching it all weekend and listening when they aren't watching!

Baseball has started and both boys are playing. We are busy during the week, but they are loving it. The games should be exciting.

No news on our baby girl yet. It sure would be nice to get a surprise sometime soon. Our agency got a new COP list - waiting children with a special need - but I don't think we are going to submit our name to be matched. I pray that these precious children do find their forever families soon.

Spring Break

Are there two better words in the English language? Well perhaps there are, but for teachers they rank right up there! Then finally it is sunny outside! We actually ran in short and short sleeved shirts today! Hopefully the weather will stay nice for our relaxing week at home.
