Yes, I know there are probably many of you who would argue with me on this one! Wow! What a great feeling! And, yes, I know, there will be some tough days, I'll take any and all reminders of how blessed I am when those times come!
But, as if getting my little girl for Christmas wasn't enough, I was able to talk to the director of her home today via e-mail. She is so kind and sweet and is so excited that my sweet little one has a forever family! She said so many wonderful things about my little one and that she is so loved by everyone at the home, and then another great gift..... lots of pictures! While I am sad that I can't show you those pictures for a while, BELIEVE YOU ME, when I can, I WILL! But, I am so blessed because I have so many pictures to start a "life book" for her! She can look back and remember her years there were so joyful! Honestly, she is smiling in almost every picture.... and in one she has a pouty face.... I have to get busy on the "tough guy" routine or she'll railroad me with that sad face! :-) She is beautiful, that is all I can say, she is so beautiful and I am so blessed! I can hardly wait for the day (sorry still a while away) that I can share her with you all! God is so good!
Again, I ask you to please continue praying! Please pray for God to prepare our hearts for one another and for her to have resiliency. Thank you!
Blessings!
"Now to Him who is able to do far more abundantly than all that we ask or think, according to the power that is at work within us, to Him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, forever and ever. Amen."
Ephesians 3:20-21

On the Journey With My Chosen One!
I am sure you might wonder why I call her chosen rather than adopted.... well, adopted is just her physical condition, CHOSEN is what we both are to be a family together! God is so rich in His Blessings, and He has chosen each of us from before the time we were knit in our mother's womb to be a FOREVER family! How BIG is that? How BIG is our God!?! Thank you for following our journey and for praying for us as we wait and continue to grow in the love of God! -- Blessings!

About Me
- Rebecca
- On Mother's Day of 2006 as I sat in church watching a baby dedication, a woman there was dedicating her adopted daughter from another country. I clearly heard God say to me, "You can do that!" Well, my first thought was "Lord, are you joking?!?" Of course, He was NOT! I then spent the next two years praying about and researching adoption. Of all the things I have always been sure of in my life.... being a Mom was definitely one of them! After much prayer and consideration I submitted my application for adoption on my 35th Birthday, August 31, 2008. And, YES, this is the "CRAZIEST" thing I have ever done in my life! But, you only get to live this life one time, so BE a little CRAZY sometimes!
