"She realized she was lucky - because she could actually see it - how the trees got more beautiful each year...how they danced with such graceful pride, surviving each season's change...and she knew their beauty lied not in the perfection, but the growth...and she could see it - in the trees, the people around her, and some days, even in herself...and so she would dance" ~Jodi Hills

November is National Adoption Month!
I know, it's been a month! That is unusual for me, but life is insane, what else can I say? Thankfully I have a minute, not to mention the little voice inside of me that keeps telling me SOPHIE IS WAITING! :) I love you Sophie, these posts are mainly for you. Okay, and me, and my blog book.
Our dear friends, Mike and Maryanne, were placed with a new baby boy in October. His name is Max, and he is amazing! November is National Adoption Month, and I have adoption on my brain. Nicole's birthday is coming up, and so this time is full of good memories and joyful feelings. Adoption has blessed our lives in a way we could never calculate. I'm so thankful there is a way provided for all of us to heal. We were blessed to meet both Max's birthmother, and Maggie's (Max's big sister) birthmother. What a sweet time it's been for Mike and Maryanne and their family and we're so grateful we were able to share in their joy.
