It's Our WaitAVersary!

We have been on the wait list for:

This is my Dad.
He's grown a lot with us on our adoption journey
- we're proud of you Dad!
We know you'll be a great Grandad.
6 Months!

We started out on the wait list 6 months ago at #53 and we are now #17. I think my Aunt Twonana said it best when she referred to our wait as "the climb". It has truly felt that way at times. Waiting for the child that God has chosen for us and HIS perfect timing is a labor of love.

Today we took a break from the climb to stop and enjoy the view.

Looking back ... we realized how much we've grown since we started our adoption journey last June. We've grown stronger in our relationship with God, with our friends and family, and as husband and wife. Discovering how far we've come gives us the strength to continue "the climb", understanding that it will not be easy but that the views get better the higher we go!
