Brian, Christine, & Our Boys

Irving Berlin's "Count Your Blessings Instead of Sheep" captures our feelings about family and adoption. We spent years praying for our family. Many nights were spent "counting sheep" rather than consider the blessings we were given. The lyrics “I think about a nursery- if you're worried, can't sleep count blessings instead of sheep” Children have been withheld for a time, but hope cometh of faith. We will find our missing family members.

Surprise Birthfather Visit

Saturday january 21, 2012
BAJA had a wonderful surprise visit from his birthfather "S"
He brought a Christmas present for him. (as well as a present from his family to us).
It was a nice visit. I asked BAJA to come upstairs from plying "Your birthfather is here to visit" "What S is here awesome!" BAJA was kind and thanked him for the art supply kit. Then he proceeded to decorate the house with the special glow sheets and has been making picutres ever since.
As we were talking S kept saying BAJA looks like Ashlee. I think at times he looks like both of them. Then BAJA said "Ashlee you know my birthmom Ashlee that's cool!" Needless to say I haven't told him the mechanics of
 
how he came to our family.

Then I was able to see his wife and little boy who were waiting in hte car. So so cute. Truly I am grateful for all of them and the kindess shown to our family. I am forever grateful for BAJA being part of our family and shattering the grief I carried for so long.!
