12 MONTH REPORT

I know Penny is doing the math right now....yup, we're a little late with the report. lol

Anyway, Marie came to do the last report for Jayme to be sent to China. Of course "the last" of anything sends me to tears! lol It was a very funny feeling to be sitting across the table from Marie that night. She answered our call in April 2003 and agreed to do our homestudy for a China adoption. Here we were almost 6 years later, with 2 beautiful healthy little ones home...but it was "the last" time we'd be doing this!



Thank you Marie for doing such an awesome job for us!



And most importantly....thank you for making me a Mommy!!!

I felt the same way when we did our report...

ironically enough I did when I heard about them closing the China program, even though I knew that I was happy with the family that I have...

we are blessed...even on those pull my hair out, days.. :)

Hey Janice! I still can't believe it's all over! Just seems like yesterday when we were starting this whole adoption adventure.

Just saw this post now. Am I a slacker. Aren't you glad to be done with the paperwork though?

There is also something a little sad about being all done. But I know deep down, I'm happy to have one to hold each hand. :)

Is that you with the blonde hair? So pretty!

I know, the last of anything sends me to tears as well...that is why Rache isn't potty trained yet! I love her little cloth diapered bottom!!!

I am so glad you are a mom! Adoption is such a beautiful thing! Here is a verse on that for you today. Jas 1:27 "Pure religion and undefiled before God the Father is this, To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted from the world."

God bless you!
