PIECES OF THE PUZZLE

Still trying to put the pieces together. Well, actually we are
sitting back and letting the pieces fall where GOD wants them
to fall.
 As it was stated "I am a go getter" and that is probably why
 I am not good at sitting back and waiting for things to happen
that I want to happen.         This I am working on.
 Our out of the BLUE door was shown to us again yesterday
and for the first time I did not know how to respond. I needed to 
talk to my husband. I reminded him that I did not persue this path.
A path that someone else has chosen for us, WOW
Dave is ok with this, Totally not within his comfort zone.....
So we wait and pray to see where this piece of the puzzle fits 

        And what does the Lord  require of you ?
To act Justly and love mercy and walk humbly with your God.
 Micah 6:9

VALENTINES DAY

HAPPY VALENTINES DAY !! XOXOXO


Saturday night I was so excited because I was tucking Rohana
into bed when she said " mom, I LOVE YOU" (insert wet eyes)
Nicole and I have said this to her everyday since she has come
home.(18 months)  I taught her to do it in sign language but to
hear her say the words brought tears to my eyes.   


Can not wait to teach it to the next little blessing,

NO NEWS IS GOOD NEWS

If you do not hear anything it is suppose to be good news ? !
I do not think that saying goes well with adoption. 

Well, my oldest son is off to snow camp with the youth group.
Which is kinda funny because when Na went last month there was no snow.
Not much snow in Maine this year. Wait.... Yes, 1-3 inces tomorrow !

Dave has 2 more weeks of second shift (please do not extend it)
It has been really ruff but we continue to get through it.

When I picked Ro up at WABAN she was saying bye to her friends
and calling them by their names. My eyes started to water.
 (it's like watching your baby take their first steps)
I have been watching the TCU Institute of Child Development DVD's
(The Connected Child by Karyn B. Purvis)   Thank you ShowHope

I will continue to pray without ceasing.

It is a Beautiful Day in the massive Adoption paperwork process.
As I am typing this my husband is mailing our Dossier via FEDEX
to our agency...YAY !!!     dislike paperwork :(

Ro is approved for Hippotherapy,  which she will start next month.
I am really excited for her because she loves horses.

February already. With potlucks, Superbowl, Moms Bible study,
winter blast, Valenties,  and school VACATION !! And poor Dave
will be done working 2nd shift, yes :)  This month should go by quickly.

My times are in my Father's hand: How could I wish or ask for more?

for He who has my pathways planned will guide me till my journey's o'er -Fraser

With my out of the Blue door I feel that I'm getting a peek @ what God can do.
