Planting Our Trees: Intro
http://planting-our-trees.blogspot.com/2011/10/intro.html
Investing in Things That Last. Wednesday, October 19, 2011. But trees are better. It is an awe-inspiring thing to stare up at the massive towering trunk of an old tree. I sometimes try to imagine what sounds that tree might have heard and what amazing sights it might have seen over its decades of life. Its strength has enabled it to withstand storms and harsh winters. Its massive root system has enabled it to persevere through droughts. Once in a while a family gathers under it for a picnic, and this tre...

Changing Lives -- Waiting for Our Sister: December 2011
http://changinglives-oneatatime.blogspot.com/2011_12_01_archive.html
Tuesday, December 27, 2011. Nothing much to report on the adoption front. We're having our home visit next week, and we're starting to work on the stack of papers needed for our dossier. Mostly, though, we've been enjoying some time together with family and our little ones that are already here. We've also been re-arranging and organizing our bedroom, and even though it's not done, it's the cleanest it's been since we moved in. Wednesday, December 21, 2011. We first found her picture on Reece's Rainbow.

Investing in Things That Last. Saturday, September 22, 2012. No, Mommy. Belly full." Lucy, when offered an M&M on Monday afternoon. Since then we have averaged about 2 accidents per day and many successes. After a couple of days, we had to switch the reward from M&M's to gummy bears. Jennifer has been working hard (including lots of clapping, cheering, and dancing to celebrate each success) and working wisely. I am so proud of them both! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Planting Our Trees: Getting Close
http://planting-our-trees.blogspot.com/2012/09/getting-closer.html
Investing in Things That Last. Tuesday, September 18, 2012. It's been a while since we updated the blog, but we are now #15 on the waiting list! Now we actually feel close. To the end. In fact, we know that at least 5 of the 14 families in front of us on the big waiting list are open only to accepting a girl. We are open only to a boy (unless we can get two children). That means that there are no more than 9 families in front of us! And we could have our future son home by the end of winter.
