I pray that each one of you has entered 2011 with your hearts open to the awesome plan the Lord has in store for you. He has a wonderful plan for each one of us. We serve an amazing God! I am so excited to see what unfolds for our family this year. The details are things that I ponder in my heart. Only the Lord knows the timing, but I am excited to see it all unfold (if it does at all). Obviously most of you know that I am talking about adoption. I would LOVE to adopt again. Those are words I NEVER EVER thought I would say after we brought the girls home. It has taken a good year for me to feel that we have found our new normal, but now I feel like we are not done. Who says that when they already have 5 kids? I guess that would be me! I don't care about having a bigger house or new cars, I dream about having our house full of kids! We'll see what happens. We are not even in the planning stages... just talking and praying! I obviously will keep you all posted, but prayers are appreciated!
My one and only new years resolution (I usually don't do them), is to do more crafty things with the kids. This is something I have failed miserable at and it is something that they all love dearly. So there you have it. I WILL be the crafty mom in 2011!
Here is our first attempt... a Rice Krispie treat snowman.

Happy New Year to each of you!

Now that is a craft I could get into! I am MISERABLE with crafts- seriously just not my gift..... :( FAIL!
It's all good- I say YEAH! Will be praying for you in your next steps in adoption. I am with you in that I want a house full of kids not stuff!!! Kids are much more fun. I am that crazy too and LOVE every minute of it!
yayyyy, so glad you MIGHT be joining me :) Sue has lots of waiting children all the time if you ever want to take a peek :) and of course, I loved agci...too :) yay...glad to hear you are praying about it too, kj
We have pondered the thought of adopting again and again. I told my hubby I wouldn't talk about it for 6 months. We'll see how long that lasts. I will be praying for you guys as you think and pray about adoption again.
And I FAIL at crafts too!! I have great intentions but they never seem to turn out as I planned. Oh well:)
HAPPY NEW YEAR!!
I can't think of a better way to enter the new year than to be open to whatever the Lord has for you and your family. Just being willing to say "yes" when He calls you! (I do hope that is to another adoption!! :)
Happy New Year!
Wow Tisha, I must confess that I haven't visited your blog (or any other blog) for months but the Lord knew I needed to read this recent entry! I love it! Mike and I cannot shake the feeling that we may adopt again as well. It is crazy and overwhelming and we too are just praying right now but excited to see what God may have. I love you friend and dream about visiting you in your home one day. LOves, Karin
