If anyone still reads my blog I just wanted to let you know that I have not died. Everything is going along swimingly in fact. Except that I may have just put one to many logs on the fireplace. Pray that goes okay. Raging fires are nice unless they are coming out of the top of your chimney. I digress. This post is an update. For all of you who were with me when I started this blog and the journey toward adopting a little blessing from Ethiopia.
First an adoption update. We are waiting. Waiting. AND THEN waiting. When a child becomes available and it is our turn on the waiting list we will receive what is called in the adoption world a referral. Based on the medical information and the picture we will determine if this child will be our daughter. Hubs and I have already agreed that whoever is in that picture is the child that God has picked for us. That is as much as I know for now. As I know more I will share it with you.
Second a blogging update. At first it was a much needed vacation. Then I realized I quite enjoyed not constantly thinking about, planning for, writing on, and generally obsessing about my blog. It gave me more time for my son, my husband, my hobbies, and much needed mental rest. My long term goal is to use this as a creative outlet. A place to chronicle and share. Not a job.
To all of you that have been so faithful about reading my blog I want to thank you. You have truly made me count each of you as my friends. I have felt guilty more than a few times about not visiting you or keeping you up to date on our adoption progress. I hope you are all well and that life is blessing you as much as it has and is blessing me.
Much Love,
Amy
