I know that everyone experiences difficult situations in life. Things that make us want to scream and just give up. Losing a loved one. Financial difficulties. Sacrifices. Misunderstandings. Uncertainties. As a Christian, how should we respond? What's the good of our faith is we become angry at God? There has to be some way to be joyful in the middle of a crisis, right? It's so easy to say those words but so difficult to actually do it. It's so easy to give advice to someone who is going through a trial but it is so hard to look at your own circumstances and use the same advice. It's amazing how quickly doubt creeps into our lives. At the drop of a dime, things can change and we start rethinking things that seemed so simple and sure.

After spending time reading my Bible this morning, I have come to this realization. I have to believe that God will do what He says. No matter how things look or how discouraged I feel. Every problem that I have has to be given to Him. I have to take God at His Word. I have to believe.

Seriously.....


I need a baby girl! After all, I can only dress up a dog so much before she starts to chew up the bows and roll in the mud in her dresses. (Yes, she has dresses!)

There is a blog that I read about a family how adopted a sweet baby girl who was born premature. Since her birth she has a many medical procedures including transplant surgery. This tiny little girl's strength is incredible. She is currently in rejection and fighting for her life. Go here to read about little Ashley. Please pray for her and her family.

Tshirts...Coming Soon!

We are designing t-shirts to sell as a part of our fundraising. I am really excited about these shirts. We will be using one of Mason's painting on the back. He doesn't know it yet but he will be so proud to see everyone wearing his art work and he will really be happy knowing that he helped bring his baby sister home. Too cool, huh?? Stay tuned for a preview of the design and get your money ready to buy one or two or three shirts!!

Nothing to Report Except Cute Curtains!!

I thought in the beginning of this adoption process that the waiting wouldn't be so bad. I was so wrong. I know that God has hand selected a precious baby girl for our family but my heart is aching for her. I didn't even know that it was possible to miss someone I have never met. I guess I am having a rough day and need to vent a little. Thanks for listening.
