Welcome to our family website.

This blog, which began as a therapeutic outlet during the wait for our daughter's arrival, morphed into a place to share feelings, ask for support, and flip through a virtual 'brag book' of photos. NOW, as we embark on our second adoption trek, please join us as we plan, pray, and travel again to the other side of the world to be united with the next piece of our family puzzle.

Peace & Blessings...Beth & Ron (and Hope too)

LID & More!!!

~ This was written 1/16/12 ~

Oh my gosh! Oh My Gosh!! OH MY GOSH!!! I don't even know where to start.

We'd had instructions during the week to send our photos that CR would submit with a match so we got that together and sent them yesterday (1/15).

TONIGHT at 8:00 pm I got a phone call from Katie at Crossroads saying that she'd matched us with a baby boy! BOY? BABY? Whhhaaaaaat?! I was crazy with questions. Honestly...the information we had was that new children are typically added to the waiting child list on the last Monday of the month. That's two weeks away! And, HEY! We don't have our log-in-date yet. How could you match us. "Oh yeah. We got that today, too!" Can you believe this!

Two minutes later at 8:02 we got an email with this little guy's information. Here's the thing...Ron was at bowling!!! Do I open the email? Do I wait? What harm is a little peek? Well, I waited. Ron got home shortly after 9 and we opened the message together. He's amazing! Wait until you see this sweet boy!

BOY? Yes.

BABY? Yes.

AAAHHHHHHHH!!! My head is spinning!
