Adoption Support Group

Guess what everyone! I found an adoption support group that meets every 2nd Tuesday of the month, in my town! The Community Center hosts the meetings and I can't believe that the small town that I live in has an adoption support group! So next month I'm going to go and meet other parents who've adopted, who are in the process or are prospectives like me! I guess the sun does come out ... maybe I just needed to give it some time! Hope you are all having a wonderful day!

Oh and since I don't have a whole lot of exciting pictures on my site .... last weekend I was w/ my sister, her husband and my neice - in Target! IV (my neice) and I were bored of shopping w/ Mommy and Daddy ( they just bought their first home) so we went to find some fun in the baby isle! Tee hee ... so this is what happens when you let IV and Manda alone in the baby department to try out some of the things that Manda would like to get for her new baby that she is going to adopt! See the pictures below!

So this is IV trying out the carseat that I'd like to get for my little one!

So now we all know what happens when IV and Manda are let loose in Target with a digital camera! It might get wild! LOL! Oh and we had a total of 5 people come up and ask if IV was a product model! LOL ... that was even more funny! I can't wait to put these in her 'Adventures at Target' Scrapbook Page! Hope you are all having a great day & this made you smile a bit! IV always makes me smile !

Carey and Norman said...: Thanks for the comments on our blog. I've been able to read some of your blog and I thought about adopting as a single parent many years ago. I ended up waiting until now and I do believe that God has a plan. He places the seeds of adoption in our hearts for a reason and he will water those seeds when the timing is right. I will keep you in my prayers for God's guide for you during your adoption journey.

Many Blessings!; August 28, 2007 at 3:27 PM

Living to Love said...: She is adorable and I love that car seat. I actually emailed it to my husband about 3 weeks ago to let him know that would be the one for Marlee!!; August 29, 2007 at 11:48 AM

Inspirational Quotes

"We must be willing to get rid of the life we planned so as to have the life that is waiting for us." -Joseph Campbell
Never get too busy making a living that you forget to make a life.
I know God won't give me anything I can't handle. I just wish he didn't trust me so much. --Mother Teresa
Life is not measured by the number of breaths you take, but by the moments that take your breath away.
We witness a miracle every time a child enters into life. But those who make their journey home across time & miles, growing within the hearts of those who wait to love them, are carried on the wings of destiny and placed among us by God's very own hands.
By choice, we have become a family, first in our hearts, and finally in breath and being. Great expectations are good; great experiences are better.
However motherhood comes to you, it's a miracle.
Somehow destiny comes into play. These children end up with you and you end up with them. It's something quite magical. -Nicole Kidman
For this child, I have prayed. 1 Samuel 1:27

Kisses in the Wind

I hold you in my heart and touch you in my dreams.
You are here each day with me, at least that's how it seems.

I know you wonder where I am ... what's taking me so long.
But remember child, I love you so and God will keep you strong.

Now go outside and feel the breeze and let it touch your skin...
Because tonight, just as always, I blow you kisses in the wind.

May God hold you in His hand until I can be with you.
I promise you, my darling, I'm doing all that I can do.

Very soon, you'll have a family for real, not just pretend.
But for tonight, just as always, I blow you kisses in the wind.

May God wrap you in His arms and hold you very tight.
And let the angels bring the kisses that I send to you each night.
