Three years ago...

This week marks three years since miscarriage number two. Has it really been that long? How has the time gone so quickly? Then again, there were days that it didn't go by quickly at all. Wow, what a lot we've been through since 2007. Even just looking back through some of these entries can give a lot of perspective about where I've been, and what I have come through to get here today. I'm so thankful for our growing little family.

I have been praying a lot lately about growing our family a different way, through adoption. But I will save that discussion for another time. Mike and I don't always see it in the same way. And I don't even know if it's something we should pursue. Just because it's on my mind and in my heart a lot lately, doesn't mean that it's going to happen. It just means that it's something I've always felt strongly about. It's certainly a higher calling, to give a loving home and a family to someone who doesn't have one of their own.

It took Andrew & I around 10 months to get on the same page about adoption. He had lots of concerns. My suggestion would be to openly discuss them as it helped us on our journey. But if you do decide to grow your family through adoption know it is incredible!

That would be so cool!!! I think every Christian family should consider adoption since it is such a picture of how God adopts us!
