Just One Word: INCREDIBLE


This superstar lights up our life! She is adored by both Abby and me. I've known her since she was born 19 years ago and Abby's known her for her whole life. She is one of those people who come into your life and leave you happier, sillier, and more joyful. She is someone who giggles with me, yells at me, eats my food, and is forever a sister to me. She's back at the best school ever for her sophomore year. HOPE COLLEGE is blessed to have her and we are excited to have her back on this side of the state!!
On other news, I went back to school with kids today. It was nice to return to my love of teaching. It's amazing, but when God blesses you with a talent such as teaching and it just flows through you, there is no greater reward. I am at peace with God's calling and thankful that he has filled me with his love.
There was some frustrating news on the adoption front. I found out today that there were 20 families waiting for an infant girl so it will be a while before I move up and actually receive a referral. I know that God is in control, but sometimes I wish he would just move faster or at least communicate his overall plans. Maybe it's just a lesson in patience and faith.

Paitence...not a fun lesson. I would give you some pointers, but I am still working on it!

I'm here for you, (especially if there is ice cream involved).
