Not flesh of my flesh
Nor bone of my bone,
But still miraculously my own.
Never forget for a single minute,
You didn't grow under my heart,
But in it.

I'm a mom to two homegrown "men", a wonderful daughter in law by marriage, and an amazing and beautiful daughter by the Grace of God through adoption. I'm the wife of a man who keeps me on my toes, but God willing we are still together. We live in the boonies which is a challenge itself. But hey, its our life and no one else has to live it.
"Never be afraid to trust an unknown future to a known God."

I saw this in an email and in this long wait, it helps to remember that. I hope they dont mind that I have borrowed it.
"The Child must know that she is a miracle, that since the beginning of the world there hasn't been, and until the end of the world there will not be, another child like her."
- Pablo Casals
Jeremiah 29:11
For I know the plans I have for you, declares the LORD, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.
Phillipians 4: 6 - 7
Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by Prayer and Petition, with Thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which trancends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
