Here We Go Again!

Posted in Adoption, God on November 6, 2009 | 1 Comment »

It was just another ordinary, beautiful Wednesday.  I wanted to be lazy.  But after arguing with myself for about an hour or so, I got my lazy butt off the couch and got myself and the two littlest ones ready to go to the gym.  I made myself go on my easy 3 mile run.  [...]

Which Ones Are YOURS?

Posted in Adoption, Kelly, Kids, Motherhood, Parenting, family, tagged , , , on June 18, 2008 | 5 Comments »

I took Patrick to the pediatrician yesterday.  He ended up referring Patrick to a neurologist.  So, I’m going to call and set up another appointment since it might take a couple of months to get him in.  I think his doctor is thinking it’s Tourettes.
I have to say I was a little frustrated with the [...]

I know so many people around me who are desperately wanting a baby.  Just one!  And here I am about to have another baby, by accident.  I have to confess, it makes me feel a bit guilty.  I SO want these dear ones to be able to have a baby of their own.  I pray [...]

I took a break from blogging yesterday so that I could have some time to think about the last week.  I wanted to process the situation with Patrick in my mind thoroughly so I could figure out some things.  I found myself getting really upset by a couple of comments on a couple of my [...]

Happy Birthday Kelly!

Posted in Adoption, Kelly, Motherhood on April 30, 2007 | 6 Comments »

I know, I’m cheating. I changed the date on this post so that it would be properly filed on Kelly’s actual birthday, even though it’s May 2nd.

My little girl is 4 years old. Time flies by so fast. She was only 15 months old when I brought her home with me, and now she [...]

On My Adoption Story…

Boy did I mess things up. It’s funny how the brain works, getting details mixed up. I was wondering why I was having such a hard time getting my story together, but now I know. I had the dates all mixed up! This is what happens when I wait so long [...]

Our Adoption Story – The Vision

Posted in Adoption, Patrick, Spiritual Growth on January 5, 2007 | 6 Comments »

I spent many many hours with Patrick and cherished every moment. And in secret, I was heart-broken. I wanted to take this little boy into my home and be the mother he needed so badly. I remember one day in particular while we were there in CA when I just couldn’t take any more. I [...]

A Sad Kind Of Feeling

Posted in Adoption, Life and Death, Patrick on January 3, 2007 | 4 Comments »

Over the last couple of weeks, I’ve been sensing that a big change in our family is about to happen. I don’t know how to explain it, but it didn’t make me feel good. It’s a bad feeling – like someone is going to die. I didn’t say anything to anyone, but Scott said the [...]

Our Adoption Story – Part 5

Posted in Adoption, Patrick on January 1, 2007 | 4 Comments »

We flew to California the summer Sharon had Patrick placed with her where we met him for the first time. He was adorable. She let him stay with Scott’s grandparents where we too were staying, so Patrick and I got to have some bonding time together. He proved to be a sweet boy.
I remember sitting [...]
