It has been 7 months today since we "officially" started our journey of adoption. Today is bittersweet, its exciting because this journey has been a blessing in disguise... but its also exhausting because of all of the unknowns. We don't know when, therefore, we can't plan and prepare. We don't know gender, therefore I can't buy all the cute little things I always seem to see on sale! (haha) But in all seriousness, this is a milestone for us. I am happy to be where we are. I am blessed. Blessed to have the support of our family and friends. Blessed to know that this is all in His hands, and not my own. I am blessed to have a wonderful, supportive husband who is patient and kind when I have my emotional breakdowns.
So... today at 7 Months... I am thankful. Some days are hard, very hard, but nonetheless, I'm blessed!
Also... I wanted to share this video with you. My friend Lauren, had it posted on her blog. I asked if I could post it on mine too... she said of course! So.. here you go! [I will warn you... it brought me to tears]!

you are so blessed - we all are! BUT adoption is so hard and there are many bumps and bruises acquired along the way. I think you handle everything with such grace and it's a testimony to me! I am praying for you!
PS- you can definitely share that video on your blog! :)
I can understand your feelings. I have just officially started the adoption process last month. It is definitely a difficult but rewarding process. I am enjoying reading your blog and would love to talk with you.
