Congratulations

Laurie holding baby Daniel for the first time.
James, Laurie, Daniel, and I think the orphanage director.

Congratulations to my friend Laurie and James. Baby Daniel found his forever family yesterday. I am so happy for them. Laurie and I started the adoption process at the same time. We was both doing American Adoption, but God showed Kevin and I very clear that our daughter was in China.
We went with God's voice and God lead us to our Beautiful Brooke.
Laurie and James have had so many ups and downs in their journey. Many times Laurie would call just because she needed a friend. I am so glad I have been there for her and been able to follow her journey.
Many times I had no answers, but I always said when the time is right you will get you child. Sure enough, after 6 years the time was right. Baby Daniel needed a mommy and daddy and now he has one.
As I see these pictures and I read Laurie's post it makes me want to go back. It brings so many memories to me. I know that right now that we financially can not go back. If it is Gods will he will make a way one day. I would be the first to say if we had the money I would go back. I still have this brown eyed little boy on my mind.

I know, but we are still paying some on Brooke. I am also getting to old. LOL Seriously I am 36 and if we don't have any by 40 then I know we will not be having any. Some days I can't get this little boy off my mind, and then other days I don't think about it. We are perfectly happy with our two girls. If God has something else for us it will work out.Just pray from time to time if it is God's will......?????

Yes, and I'm still paying on my van. But it won't stop me from getting another car payment if that's what I need ;D

If it be God's will, that's just how I pray (but I pray it is!)...
