*~** Happy 4th of July! **~*




“I believe with all my heart that standing up for America means standing up for the God who has so blessed our land. We need God's help to guide our nation through stormy seas. But we can't expect Him to protect America in a crisis if we just leave Him over on the shelf in our day-to-day living.”

Even as a Canadian, I love that quote! And Miss Khloe? So beautiful!

Valerie and Jeff said...

SOOO glad that you are back. I do remember reading that you had posting problems but I thought it was mainly in commenting and so I chalked your absence up to being a busy mom of a toddler/pre-schooler AND teens! LOVE the photos of Miss Khloe. (and her outfit!!) Oh my she has grown--and she is just so beautiful!
Looking forward to more posts in the future again.
Hugs,
Valerie

Love the photos!! SO sweet of your little American girl! Love the quote too!
Also, regarding your comment on my post about Lily. The fortune cookie didn't really say that, that was just Steve's humorous way of saying "yes" to the adoption. I probably didn't word it in the best way. But I wouldn't be surprised if God did something like that!!
Blessings!

Hi there! I just wanted to drop you a quick note to first say how much I love your blog! Reading your words, seeing your pictures, listening to your spirit on your journey has changed my life for the better. I have been in the process of adoption from Russia for over three years now. Reading about journeys such as your have given me hope, encouragement, and energy to keep going. You have brought me to laughter and tears as I have followed your miracle. I thank you for taking the time to share.
I was wondering if you could give me some advice. I have a blog that I have been writing marking my journey towards my daughters. Do you have any advise on how to bring my journey to more people? My only goal is to pass on some of the blessings I have been given by families like yours. To encourage, inspire, and educate others about the miracle and challenges of adoption. I have submitted my blog to the various search engines and Facebook etc. Do you have any other ideas? I so appreciate you time and thoughts. my blog is www.adoption-thecrookedroad.blogspot.com.


thanks so much for your time and your willingness to share,
Stephanie

Hi Tanya,
Thank you so much for your sweet comment on my blog. I hope you get this message. I wanted to let you know that we found the going home Barbie at Jordon's place on the island. I am going there in the morning for one last stop before we leave. I would be more than happy to pick one up for you if you would like. I don't know what year it is from...it says that it is a 7th edition and on the back it says it is from the Westin hotel...not the white swan if that makes a difference to you. Let me know!!
