I'm a married mother of "3 1/2" ;) and the loves of my life are my faith and my family. I've grown in my faith over the last two years since my daughter's adoption, she is the reason why I started this blog in the first place, and I'm so looking forward to watching God move in my heart, and the hearts of others who follow along on our journey towards bringing home one of "the least of these". Special needs adoption is my mission field, whether I'm adopting a child myself, or helping other families get funded, or shouting for waiting children who need families to find them, and I hope you'll come along for the ride and watch what God can accomplish when we say yes to His command to care for the orphan, and go out into the world to be His hands and feet.

Daddy's Corner...I'm late for a very important date...

Hi Natasha...It's Daddy,
I must apologize baby girl...Daddy was late getting his letter out to you this week.  The whole family has at one time or another been sick over the past couple of weeks and this week has been no exception for daddy.  My voice has been coming and going, I've had the sneezels, the runny nose and all that.  I hope that you have been keeping warm and that you have been feeling good.  I miss you so much Natasha.  I know that some people might say how can you miss someone you've never met...those are the people that might not understand the special bond that comes about when it comes to adoption.  For those that do understand...they might understand because either they have gone through the adoption process or perhaps...they are parents themselves and they just know and understand that feeling...that bond you feel for your children.  You are my child Natasha...oh sure, the ink might not be dry on all the paperwork yet...but you are my daughter...no two ways about it. I love you like I love your two brothers and I always will.  We went to the Toys R Us store earlier this week and mom and I were walking the aisles.  I was talking to mom and then all of the sudden I looked back and there was mom...all over the Barbie's...let me just say this hon, I hope you like Barbies...that's all I'm saying...lol.  The plans continue for you Un-Birthday party.  That's the fundraiser we are having in your honor.  It's pretty cool. It is designed around an Alice In Wonderland theme and we are getting a lot of support from businesses around the community and around the country donating wonderful items for us to auction off and raffle off to help raise money to bring you home my love.  We can't wait to see you.  The days are drawing closer when that glorious day becomes a reality. I keep praying that that day will come soon.  Remember my darling Natasha, that when you are missing mommy and daddy, just look to the moon and the stars and know that we will be doing the same and thinking of you too.  I love you Natasha and I will write again soon....Love, Daddy
