Thinking out loud...
Well I have a lot to be thinking about. First, one of my friends and fellow bloggers DiJo is in China this very moment getting to meet her third daughter for the first time. I am so happy for her and her family to be spending time with their sweet little "Tung Tung" who we know as Sienna. I am praying for them everyday. I know this is God's plan for their family but it must be terrifying for any 4 year old to leave all they've known. I pray that God will cover Sienna with a blanket of faith, strength, and comfort during her transition. I can't help but be a little jealous though. I know not everyone See's where I'm coming from when I say I want to spend thousands of dollars, many months, traveling around the world, and becoming a mother to 5 children. But I really don't care what others think. Maybe the only way I can explain it is by describing how I felt when I found out I was pregnant with my other children. After the initial shock wore off I remember thinking that the day I got to meet our baby would never come. Like a feeling of wanting something so bad, and feeling that you are unworthy, so the bottom was sure to fall out. Then the waiting is awful and it seems to drag on FOREVER. Then Bamm you're in labor and you finally get to hold your baby in your arms, and look at their precious face. I have been told that I don't even know my daughter who is so far away and that she may not even be real, but I know in my heart that she is. Just because you can't see something doesn't mean it's not real, right? She is a part of my being, just as my other children are. I can't stop thinking and worrying about her until I have her in my arms.

Spring Dresses
I have to admit when it comes to the princess and her wardrobe I can't help but go overboard. I think it's a good thing that we only have one little girl at the moment. Brian and I need to hurry up and get done with school, so we can afford many more beautiful things for our girls. ( Praying that we get are adopted daughter soon.)

Valentine's Day
My wonderful and sweet, sweet husband sent me these beautiful red roses at work on Valentine's Day. Brian is the sweetest man I have ever met. This is our 9th Valentine's Day together so here are nine things I love about my husband.
1.) He is the meaning of unconditional love
2.) He loves the Lord
3.) He tells me he loves me a million times a day
4.) He still holds my hand in the car, and cuddles with me on the couch.
5.) He is a wonderful father to our beautiful children.
6.) He starts the car in the morning for me, and makes me coffee.
7.) He helps with the kids, including homework.
8.) He thinks I'm pretty, even when I'm not.
9.) He is my best friend, and my biggest fan.
Happy Valentine's Day to my sweet love. I hope we get to spend 100 more with each other.
