A happy update.

Just a little while after my last post, we received an updated picture of our boy. It made for one happy mama. He was pictured with his foster mother and the package we sent him. I cropped the picture to protect the foster mother's privacy since this is a public website. The picture was taken on March 6th, he was about 7 1/2 months old at the time. As of today (Monday) we don't have any new news, but hopefully if not this week then next week. Here's that gorgeous boy.

An update on us.

Here we are at the end of spring break. I feel more exhausted than ever. I'm sure that part of my problem is mental. I spent a couple of days at my sister's house helping out with the new babies. The girls had a great time at their Mamaw's house. The got to do something fun each day and were spoiled.
Today we are back home and I have tons to catch up on. My sweet, sweet husband took the day off and is taking the girls to the gym while I pay bills. A task I can't complete with things going on around me. I think he's kind of worried about me today. I'm a little down, but mostly overwhelmed by life today.
For an adoption update, we are waiting on a couple of things to happen in Korea. The hard part is that this stage of the process could happen in a few days or a few weeks. So, it's hard to say just exactly when our boy will be home. God has been so faithful, in that everything up until this point has gone so quickly. I realize that this could be part of the issue (Korea trying to catch up to the quick process on the US side)
I also need to mention more that God has done for us. We did not receive one of the grants that we applied for. I know that sounds like bad news, but I believe there are other families out there who need it more than we do. Because, drum roll please.........we are about $500 short of our final goal. God is AWESOME. He has made this possible and we haven't even had to try that hard. Trusting is the key, He is worthy of all our trust. He is faithful. So just keep praying that our boy will come in His time and that I will not fall apart in the meantime.

A blogging slump.

I'm not exactly sure what's up with me lately. I am in a blogging slump. Maybe it's because my blogging friends (who orginally lured me into this world) have stopped the daily posting. Maybe it's the fact that I have very few readers. Maybe it's that fact that I'm feeling very unmotivated and might I say LAZY these days. I am considering rethinking this whole thing. Why am I blogging in the first place. I thought it would be a fun way to share my life and family with the world. I've enjoyed being able to document the things my girls do, or the ways God is blessing us. I'm just wondering if I should do this in a more private way. So, stay tuned, i'm considering going private. For now my blog will stay public,but if I decide to go private I will let you know. Thanks for reading. By the way, I'm late in posting these but here are a couple of pics of my sweet cheerleaders. Little Sis is in the center of the group in the bottom pic.
