Today

Well, three months ago today, the girls were placed in our home. This brings mixed emotions in me. I am thrilled and blessed to have them, but I also wonder how my life would be different without them. I am not sure why my mind goes in this direction. We have a lot more laughter, hugs, kisses and DRAMA, of course. I believe I am going to start praying for strenth and grace and mercy for when I have three 13 year old girls. I can't imagine how much drama we will have then.

I have got to submit information to the state that I would like to have included in the adoption agreement. I really don't know what this is suppose to look like. I will begin working on the info and pray my way through it. I am open to any advice or tips for anyone that has been through this process before.

I was talking to a friend this morning. She has a 12 day old baby girl she is adopting. Anyway, we were talking about the girls and she said based on what I had put on my blog, she also suspects some auditory processing issues. This problem fits their history. I am going to contact the place she recommended and see what they think. Any suggestions?


I had a nice time with my niece this weekend. She is so cute!! She is a good baby and sleeps well. I actually thought to myself, maybe I will adopt again if I can have a baby. I just love babies!! We will just have to see what path God takes us on. Right now, my five children need me, especially the younger three. I am trying to prepare for school to start in August. Boy, is that an overwhelming thought!

As I adjust to my busy crazy lifestyle, I realized at 10:45 am that I had a Pregnancy Resource Board meeting at 12:00. Ugh, I was planning to go to the pool and lunch with a friend. Well, plans changed quickly and my husband and I played tag team during lunch today. As a bonus, he made brownies while he was home!! Coffee and brownies...yum!
