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 - Happy Birthday and yeah...what Mommy said..lol

Hi Natasha, It's Daddy!!!

Happy Birthday my big girl!!! You're 3 now....WOOT!!! Well, I know that mommy wrote you earlier and told you all the good stuff I was going to tell you so I won't keep you long honey but I did want to tell you that all your friends and family and your internet Aunties and Uncles :) say Happy Birthday to you and wish you all the best on YOUR day and every day.  So, if you recall, daddy told you the other day that we were about $1,500 away from being able to have the money to come see you the first time.  Well, thanks to your mommy's ability to make some gorgeous crafts and the generosity of some wonderful people, I am thrilled to tell you that we are down to a little over $800 away now!!!!! YAY!!!!!.  Now, there is still some paperwork that needs to be filed and some minor technical hoops we need to jump through, but once we have this last chunk of money and get everything filed, we should get permission to come see you really soon after that.  By the way, you got some really cool presents for your birthday and I can't wait for you to see them all.  Mommy already told you about some of it so I won't repeat it but let's just say this....Who's the biggest princess ever?.....You are...that's who!!! :)  Well darling, I am going to get going for now but I will write you again in a few days. Until then, know that when you're missing mommy and daddy just look to the stars and the moon and pray.  And know that we are doing the same thing over here!!! I love you baby and happy birthday. You sleep well!!! Love, Daddy
