Santa Baby

We went to Bass Pro shop a few days ago. Hannah was snoozing in her carrier when we saw Santa. We carefully handed her over to him and hoped she wouldn't wake up, see him and start screaming. And she didn't. She slept right through it and never knew Santa held her. :)

Home for 6 Months

I got an email this evening from Heidi Garner, a very sweet friend who travelled to Ethiopia the same time we did to bring home her precious Hope. She reminded me that we have been home for 6 months with Hannah. (Thanks for the reminder, Heidi!! Miss you!)
Wow! It doesn't seem like it was 6 months ago that we were in Africa, but at the same time it feels like we've had our sweet Hannah with us forever!

I did it!!

I took the 30 day blogging challenge and somehow I accomplished blogging about something each day in November. Not sure if I'll manage it in December though. :)
Hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving break. Can't believe tomorrow is December 1st and I haven't done any shopping. None at all!

Love this...

LEGACY OF AN ADOPTED CHILD


Once there were two women who never knew each other
One you do not remember, the other you call Mother
Two different lives shaped to make you one
One became your guiding star, the other became your sun.
The first one gave you life, and the second taught you to live it
The first gave you a need for love, the second was there to give it
One gave you a nationality, the other gave you a name
One gave you a talent, the other gave you aim
One gave you emotions, the other calmed your fears
One saw your first sweet smile, the other dried your tears
One made an adoption plan, that was all that she could do
The other prayed for a child, and God led her straight to you.
Now, which of these two women, Are you the product of?
Both, my darling, Both, Just two different types of love.
