Aidan beat Kristen - sad but true! and he got a strike.
Brian wiped out......still laughing about it.
Tyler had this huge smile on his face the entire time!!!

Trying to get the word out about adopting

Once our site was up and running we sent it our to all of our friends and family. Then many of them passed it on to people they know.
Now, we are just a short time away from having the hard copy of our profile complete. Once that's done we will have our adoption agency, A Loving Choice, show it to the birth families they are working with. 

Is there anything I'm missing? Any stone left unturned? 

I know that the adoption journey could be a long and bumpy one but I know that it will all be worth it. 

The Legacy of An Adopted Child

This is a poem I came across as a child. My sister had it and it has always stuck in my head. Now, years later I now that the plan was always for me to be blessed with a child through adoption. I hope that you like it and that it touches your heart the same way it touched mine. My hope is also that it reminds people that we are all here involved in adoption for one thing, the love of our children.

~ 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 yours one, One became your guiding star, The other became your sun. The first gave you life, And the second taught you to live it. And the first gave you a need for love, And the second was there to give it. One gave you a nationality. The other gave you a name. One gave you the seeds of 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 gave you life, It was all that she could do. The other prayed for a child, And God led her straight to you. And now you ask me through your tears, The age old question through the years. Heredity or environment, Which are you a product of? Neither, my Darling, Neither, Just two different kinds of love. Author Unknown

The Adoption Meeting was a success!!!

OK So the first meeting went really well. It was a small group but we got some good feedback and know what we want to do for the rest of the year. One of the couples have welcomed home their baby boy. It was so great to see the smile on her face. She is just thrilled beyond belief.

First day at Mom's plus 2 playgroup (maybe soon I'll be able to go to mom's plus 3, is there such thing???)
The boys had a good time and I got to meet some new people.
Tonight's the first Adoption group meeting that I'm going to be running with my friend Kelly. I can't wait! Glad we didn't have to cancel because of the snow!

Yes, I know the blogs aren't too exciting yet.  I'm still getting the hang of it so hang in there; they'll get better soon. I hope!!

Thanks for supporting us on our adoption journey

We are so touched by everyones love and support as we start our adoption journey again. So many of our friends and family have posted our adoption site on their face book page and have e-mailed it to people they know. Brian and I have faith that we will be blessed with a baby to love and cherish.
Thank you all for your unending love and support. It means the world to us.

Our Family trip to Williamsburg

Brian, the boys and I went to Williamburg over the weekend. The boys did great on the ride down and we had such a nice time. Wishing we didn't leave our camera at my parents house but at least we had the video camera.

It was 52 and sunny down there big difference compared to home.

Hoping to add to our family through Adoption

We are so excited that our adoption web site is up and running!!!!!
We didn't do this when we adopted Tyler so this is all new to us. Maybe our baby #3's birthmom/parents will find us this way!
