*thanks*

I just need to say a huge

THANK YOU!!!!!

We have been so supported & so blessed since returning home from China!

We don't have a whole lot of friends who have adopted & so at times this path can feel lonely....

but, I can honestly say that I don't feel "alone".

So So So many of you have written sweet, encouraging notes/cards/emails/texts/brought us meals, & given the girls gifts just because.

Last week one day Scott went out to get the mail &

when he came back inside he had a slightly "terrified" look on his face!

He was certain that he had forgotten a major event in my life...

maybe even my birthday??

because there were so many hand-written cards in the mailbox for me! 

I assured him that no-he didn't forget anything...

& then

I proceeded to be enouraged,

reminded of HIS faithfullness,

& blessed by numerous friends thru the cards.

So, I wish that I could give each one of you a big hug of thankfullness...

because your "words" truely are bright spots in my day!

Hopefully the next time I see "you" I will be able to thank you in person...

but I'm certain that there will be times when my brain is completely fogged over...

& when I am with you I temporarily forget all that I wish to say...

So...

THANK YOU!

We are blessed.
