Christmas and New Years 2008

My Dear Friends,
It has been a while since I have posted any thing, mostly because I simply can not get alone time to get on the computer and a clear thought together long enough to post. Our Christmas was wonderful. Last Christmas we had just received our match with Cali and this Christmas she is home. It is hard to believe sometimes all that has happened in the past two and one half years. Our family has grown from 4 children to six and we have traveled to China twice. We have also been blessed to meet incredible people, whom we now call friends in this journey. God opened the adoption door for us and what an incredible blessing it has been. Our family fills the house, what more can a mother prayer for? As we all come to close the year 2008, I look forward to what God has planned for each of us. I take comfort in that God has already made all the plans, we just need to look to Him for the answers.

Prayer Request for December 2nd

Adoption is so much more than just adopting one child into your family. The little girl in the picture with Greyson was adopted into her forever family when we were adopting Cali. Our families have become friends, more than friends, they are family. Little Sophie is going into surgery tomorrow at 1:30 pm. She is having a non working kidney removed and some corrective surgery. She and her family need your prayers. All of these little girls from China have been through so much in their short lives, I have a hard time just pondering what they feel. Sophie is a spunky little girl that has a family that loves her and just wants her well and home. Thank you for praying. If you go on to my side bars, her blog is "journey to our princess".
