What I just overheard...

It's Sunday, after church. I am in the kitchen and Ella is watching Dora the Explorer in the living room. This is what I just overheard...

Dora-"Do you know where Santa lives?"

Ella-"umm, Africa!!"

Be still my heart...

Merry Christmas Sweet "M"

Merry Christmas precious baby girl. This is the last Christmas that you will not be with us. We can not wait for you to be home with us forever. Please know that we love and miss you more than you can possibly know. We are so blessed to be able to celebrate this Christmas with you in our hearts and knowing who you are. You will be home so soon and the 3 of us anxiously await you!! I know you are wrapped with love from the Holy Spirit this Christmas so we are not sad or worried about you. You are in the best hands and soon He will trust us to take care of you, love you, be your mommy, daddy and sister. We are so blessed. Blessed in a way that I have never known before. We can not wait to get to know you and shower you with love and hugs and kissses. We can't wait to talk to you about Jesus and what he has done for all of us during this past year, how He brought us four together.

Here is a a song and video about international adoption, it hit home with what we are feeling during this time. The song is "Merry Christmas" by Third Day.  You can stop the music on the playlist on the bottom of this page before playing the video.

SHOTS and OUCH!!!

We needed several vaccinations in order to travel to Africa so we went Monday and got almost all of them. We used this AWESOME ministry that does travel vaccinations at cost. It saved us a LOT of money and they were wonderful!! If you are in the Nashville area and need travel immunizations we highly recommend these wonderful people.

The group is The Global Outreach Clinic.
