Pens and A Prayer Adoption: July 2013
http://pensandaprayeradoption.blogspot.com/2013_07_01_archive.html
Pens and A Prayer Adoption. Tuesday, July 23, 2013. NEVER GIVE. UP. DONATE TO HELP BRING PHOENIX HOME. The last couple days I have felt every emotion there is to feel. The roller coaster is unbelievably fast and so far has had many bumps and turns along the way. I have felt such excitement that I thought I thought I could puke. And that quickly turned into tears of worry and panic. As our dream felt like it was fading out of our reach. More since the adoption will be out of state. We cannot walk away.

Pens and A Prayer Adoption: April 2012
http://pensandaprayeradoption.blogspot.com/2012_04_01_archive.html
Pens and A Prayer Adoption. Tuesday, April 24, 2012. No Ado about Much. I haven't posted in awhile. I have had to mentally remove myself and surround myself with things/people that make me happy. While I don't think bottling pent up emotional "yuck" (as I call it) is good,. I don't believe that soaking in my worries is good either. I can't control this. At this point in the process, there is nothing I can control. So I might as well quit fighting so hard against it to FIND control. Hands in the air*.

Pens and A Prayer Adoption. Monday, October 8, 2012. Fall is officially here! Hoodies, pumpkin lattes, fall festivals.I just heart it. Last week was when it was first noticeable,. Especially seeing the leaves change color and touch the ground. My heart is always a mix of emotions around this time of year. I am reminded of how time is flying by,. And how I should be thankful more often for my blessings. It seriously seems like yesterday. But it has already been 10 years. This is my N 10 years ago. Follow ...

Pens and A Prayer Adoption. Sunday, January 29, 2012. The Calm before the Storm? I wouldn't normally consider myself to be a sappy kind of person, but this week has been one of deep reflection for me. It seems my classes are "speaking" to me personally in their content,. And normal stressful situations have somehow transformed into feelings of peace. I finally feel confident with my direction and motivation in life. So I think.what is going on? B did surprise me with a love note Thursday night. I totally...

Pens and A Prayer Adoption. Monday, February 25, 2013. Sometimes healing comes from Strange Places. For me it has come from. My adoption case worker. Complete strangers from my Blog. She contacted me a few days ago and was extremely apologetic. She knew she hurt us- -deeply. She knew nothing she could say or do that would "fix" things. Her apology took courage and her sincerity has helped me begin to move on. Thank you to all for your kindness and genuine concern for my well-being. For your words of HOPE.

http://pensandaprayeradoption.blogspot.com/2013/09/god-is-so-good-please-meet-phoenix.html
Pens and A Prayer Adoption. Monday, September 23, 2013. God is SO Good Please Meet Phoenix! I cannot tell you in words the extent of my emotions in the last few months. My heart has shattered, partially mended, terrified and pulsing almost out of my chest, and overall just frustrated and exhausted with life and our journey with adoption. Then, in a matter of seconds. My heart was totally and completely FULL. Full of L.O.V.E. A deep, unconditional, and effortless love. We had found our son. =). He is a ca...

Pens and A Prayer Adoption. Friday, March 23, 2012. These are the tulips B and N planted- aren't they beauti-mous! It really could not have come at a better time. While most college students are probably partying poolside drunk in some exotic place. This college woman is having her own type of party. A "catching up on all I've been slacking on" kind of party. A "clean house, laundry foldin', hanging out with my girl, sleeping in, watching TV (what is that? He applied for a job he REALLY wanted-. FOLLOW M...

Pens and A Prayer Adoption. Monday, February 13, 2012. So I've never been a huge fan of Valentine's Day. I may quite possibly be the only woman in this world who actually cringes and rolls her eyes at first mention of the holiday. Ok so I'm not the only one. I do dread those jewelry commercials however. Major eye rolling paired with upper lip twist. Seriously ugh, gag me with a spork. But my hubs is good to me and *on his own will mind you* decides to participates in the celebration of the day. And becau...

Pens and A Prayer Adoption. Thursday, December 6, 2012. Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells, Jingle all the.yea yea Ok. It's Christmas time now and the hub bub of the season is upon us. I love the holidays but Christmas is THE holiday on steroids. You just can't break away from all the fa la la'ing and feeling of general expectations of pure joy. It personally can make me feel like I'm drowning. Anyone else feeling that way right now? I obviously need more Vitamin D.again. Not to sound like the grinch or anything.
