Journey to Emma: November 2008
http://emmaelizabeth888.blogspot.com/2008_11_01_archive.html
Our Adoption Journey Blog. Friday, November 28, 2008. November has been a fun month - I hate to see it end! For Emma it has been a month full of school, sleep overs with Cassie, reading her first book, 100% on a her first spelling test, learning how to say "Mama" and "Da", and settling in. Oh, and most important of all, hair long enough to put in pigtails! This had her dancing around the room excited! She wants to put it all together and present it by herself. The other night she trudged across the f...

Our Adoption Journey Blog. Thursday, July 31, 2008. There is one more step between us and a definite departure date, and that is an appointment with the Consulate in China. We've received word that our appointment has tentatively been scheduled for August 26th, but we are still waiting for this to be official. (sigh) Please pray that tomorrow brings us some answers! Emma lives in the city of Zhanjiang, located in southeast China near the Vietnam border. Can you see it? Tuesday, July 29, 2008. Beyond furn...

Instant Mommy: August 2012
http://instant-mommy.blogspot.com/2012_08_01_archive.html
Thursday, August 23, 2012. Cause You're part of me. And though You're invisible. I'll trust the unseen. I'll cry out to you Lord. I'll cry out for Your justice. I'll cry out to You, oh Lord, for Your working in our life. That You would make mountains move. You would move things in Your timing alone. I'll cry out to you Lord, cause I know You are by my side. The Give and Take. It must be the month of balance for me. But I'm not a person who sees gray. Monday, August 20, 2012. Recently, a friend liked a Fa...

Instant Mommy: September 2013
http://instant-mommy.blogspot.com/2013_09_01_archive.html
Monday, September 23, 2013. It's been almost a month since our adoption day. It's just unbelievable to me that time has already gone so quickly. Life goes quickly. Then my oldest has asked to also come home for virtual school. So that will be another adjustment. How do we get her into our mix? We are back into the fall routines. Football, Gymnastics, Dance, Tae Kwon Do, meets, games, classes, therapies, momma's bible study. Getting our calendar full. 3) Learn to let their light shine. I hope they wil...

Instant Mommy: November 2013
http://instant-mommy.blogspot.com/2013_11_01_archive.html
Friday, November 8, 2013. Our God is a God who pursues us. He wants us. Everyone one of us. There isn't anything in our past that could make us not worthy for Him. He gives us second chances. Third chances. Fourth chances. And many many more chances than we deserve. He loves us. And He meets us with the most awesome opportunities if we would only just say, "yes". We went bankrupt. God saw us through it and helped us get a plan where we can repay all of our loans and dept. Feeling crushed and defeated, Go...

Our Adoption Journey Blog. Thursday, October 15, 2009. Now that fall is here, we are out of "firsts" with Emma! This will be her second Halloween, her second trip to the pumpkin patch, second Thanksgiving, etc. You should have seen the look on her face when I explained that there will be another Christmas. She was shocked and then just danced around the room! You could just see the thoughts going through her head "Holy Cow! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile.

Instant Mommy: July 2013
http://instant-mommy.blogspot.com/2013_07_01_archive.html
Wednesday, July 24, 2013. Really in this space that is "in-between", it has been probably the past period of working with the system. We have a WONDERFUL. Getting through "in-between" will be stepping out into what hopefully is the last stop on our journey to adoption. And we may know as soon as tomorrow. How quickly we can step into that last space of time before our adoption. So today, I woke up with " Tomorrow. Stuck in my head. The irony that it is being sung by an orphan isn't lost on me either.

Instant Mommy: Provisions

Wednesday, December 5, 2012. 8220;And why worry about your clothing? Look at the lilies of the field and how they grow. They don’t work or make their clothing,. Yet Solomon in all his glory was not dressed as beautifully as they are. And if God cares so wonderfully for wildflowers that are here today and thrown into the fire tomorrow, he will certainly care for you. Why do you have so little faith? 8220; So don’t worry about these things, saying, ‘What will we eat? What will we drink? What will we wear?
