Can you believe we're staring down the face of 2010? Remember about 10 years ago...Y2K? Wondering if everything would blow up when the clock struck 12 and we entered the new millennium...and then it didn't...and some of us were a little disappointed because that meant we had to go back to work. :) Well, I'm just sayin'...some of us were just a tad disappointed but that's because we were young and naive...now we're so much wiser!
We have had a busy last month or so...Mimi came for Thanksgiving--we went to my Dad's for Christmas and my sister and brother were there too. (Grandpa Jim was sick the whole time and we kept giving him a hard time about being a wimp--the day after we left he ended up in the hospital with double pneumonia...good job, Mo) We got home and two days later, James' parents-his sister and her husband and the COUSINS came! They actually all got here yesterday and the kids have had a blast. Madi loves Max and we're not sure if Max loves Madi. :) The kids are so much fun together.
James and I are researching adoption agencies...narrowing down countries...getting excited. Wanting to do something today...but knowing it's a process that will teach patience (and trust me I don't EVER ask for patience) knowing it's a process that will require some refinement and unfortunately, I kind of prefer to stay out of the fire...but we can't be refined without the fire. We're praying BIG for this one...praying BIG...because this is a 'God if you don't do this...it can't happen' kind of situation-this is something bigger than us. For me, though...that just makes it all the more exciting...because it's a God thing...and we're going to get to see God do HIS thing...how cool is that!
A new road, a new direction for 2010...so what are you praying BIG for this year?
