March Update!

Well March has now come and gone and hopefully with the new spring weather arriving the viruses that have been passed around our house will move on too. In the last 4-6 weeks every person in our house has been sick at least once with Braeden and Garrett having been hit twice. I am ready to open all the windows and really air out the house and maybe douse everything in bleach. During all the illness we managed to celebrate Ethan's 8th birthday and Braeden's 4th birthday. They sure grow up fast.

We have also been getting ready for our big trip to California. Since December I have been planning a visit to my Grandmothers in San Diego. She is 92 years old and still lives in her own apartment. I try to visit as much as I can, but usually we only make it out about every 2 years. This year since I got such a great deal on airfare we are all going and we will also be taking in the sights at Disneyland. None of us have ever been so I am very excited. Shhhh!!! The boys only know about visiting grandma and the beach; Disneyland is a surprise. I can't wait to see their faces.

March 30th also marks the 1 year anniversary of starting our adoption journey. At this point I had hoped to be a lot closer to bringing Genei home, but I will put my trust and faith in God and wait on His perfect timing. I have hopes that the next batch of referrals are on the way. For now I am going to enjoy living inn this moment and try hard not to wish the days away because my boys are growing up too fast as it is and I want to cherish every day as the gift it is.

Next post will have lots of vacation pictures!

Alisha,
Happy Anniversary of starting the adoption process! Ours is coming up this month too! Like you, I had hoped to be so much closer to Selah by now, but do trust God as you said! Hope you're having fun at Disneyland!
