The time is almost here! August 7th

It's been such a long time since I've posted anything...geez, sorry folks!  We have been feverishly working on what I like to call the "adoption suite" which is our first floor level.  Two bedrooms, office, library and family room to be exact.  Ron designed the whole thing and it is going to be really nice - I can't wait to fill it with loud, boisterous kids!

We will be meeting our kids in September - I can' believe that it is time!  There are so many unknowns, but what I do know is that I am already in love with these children who I haven't even met yet!  We talk about them like they are already our children as we plan for them and finish their rooms and wonder what they'll like.....

We have been ready to be a family for a really long time, and I'm so happy that God has brought us to this and so grateful for all the people that have helped us with our adoption suite:  our friends Jim, Shelly, Sarah, Mark and Lori, and our family members Jan, Moriah, Julie and my brother Kevin - who has practically been living here on the weekends helping us out!  Our parents have been so supportive and wonderful - Ron's folks have been working the garden so we will have fresh veggies for the kids, and my folks have been providing us food and running to the grocery store for us...they are just as excited as we are!

We are also lucky to have wonderful friends and relatives that have been donating clothes and books and some toys and furniture, as well as helping with errands and you name it.  Not to mention the many prayers that have been going up on our behalf and that of our children. 

God Bless you ALL!! 

Until next time - do widzenia!
