New Beginnings

Meet Miss Chloe Hope
Precious.  Wanted.  Loved.  
This child will always be in my heart.  Her face, that beautiful smile.  Two years ago as I sat on my computer looking through lists of available children, I saw her.  The face you see here is not the face I saw.  The face I saw was bleak.  She had deep, brown inquisitive eyes, eyes that reminded me so much of my own MK.  She looked all alone and so sad.  Fast forward two years and this baby girl is FINALLY coming home FOREVER!  Follow along on her journey as her parents travel to China to pick her up!  www.ourhope7.blogspot.com

AND, another one of our favorite families is in Ethiopia right now (hopefully getting some rest!) to bring home their three sweet kiddos, Samuel, Sophie and little Titus!  Can I even tell you all how giddy I am to see FOUR less....and here is the kicker, the four less live on the same.exact.street!  How cool is that?!  Follow along www.threeitwillbe.blogspot.com
And pray for both of these families as they begin their new lives with their new additions.
Pray for peace, healing hearts, safe travels, smooth transitions....

AND, in our adoption news (Ryan announced today he just likes the name Gentry so we are back to square one, Mary-Gentry or Gentry, who knows???).....we walked in early today for our fingerprinting and now we will wait some more:)  With fingerprinting behind us, we all chose to celebrate with a trip to the Georgia Aquarium followed by.....
Cheesecake Factory.
Love.Their.Burrito
Oh, and the cheesecake.  The Reese's kind.
Yummo.
