We may or may not ever be able to make an announcement that "we're pregnant"...but we have come to understand that the blessing is the fact that however parenthood happens, it is a miracle! ....... Now we have been home with our precious blessing from Russia since August 2007. Join us on our fun and crazy ride that we call "life with this child of mine."

I've come up with a new idea! When I have nothing to post about, I think I am going to tell you stories. They probably won't be great stories...but maybe through them, you'll get to know us a little better. Or, conversely, you'll be bored! ;) I have a few ideas brewing...some will be recent stories and some will be more from the past. And the hardest part of it for me will be not telling them all at once! (impatience, impatience!) So here's the first installment...a recent event:

On Saturday, I emptied our "adoption box" to clean it out and straighten it up. This may seem mundane, but it took me quite a while! I took all the older/wrong documents that I'd been saving (for no true reason, except for "just because") and shredded them (my poor shredder about burned up!). I consolidated and reorganized. Whew! I am SO glad that's done! Here are a few pictures:

Here, you see the box (sorta in the middle). All the papers around it had been in it...

I must have redone our book about 1000 times. Now it is quietly tucked away in a closet while I rifle through my office saying, WHERE THE HECK IS THAT DANG CONTRACT!!!!

Melissa, yay, you're getting into the bloggy thing of just telling all kinds of stories :o) Sometimes the adoption news is far between, we'll get to know you better this way!!
