Starting again...blogging, that is...

The whole point of starting this blog was to have a history of my heart as 'proof' (not the right word, but whatever) to our future children that we have been hoping and praying for them all this time. This blog was never an outlet for me. Unlike a lot of bloggers, I don't feel any type of satisfaction or therapy from writing down all my thoughts and feelings. Because it's not therapeutic for me, I haven't done much on here. I recently started thinking about how much I will regret not having a written journal for our children. So, here I am...

There is SO much to say and yet there's really NOTHING happening. We feel like we've had a lot of bumps along the way and they've been VERY frustrating. We totally trust that God has our child(ren) out there, though. So, just as I believe that a red light...or a train...or slow traffic...can be God's protection (maybe we would have been in a wreck had we been further along on our drive...perhaps something tragic would have happened at our destination had we arrived earlier), we believe that these adoption detours are totally God's design to OUR child(ren).
