A Day With Sophia

Every thursday I get the wonderful blessing of taking care of my five month old niece Sophia. I love our time together. Watching her grow and change has brought me so many mixed emotions. Every week she changes so much, and every week I realize how much I am missing out on with Cameron. I know everyone says that this waiting time is short compared to the rest of our life together, but thinking logically does not seem to help, when you miss your child.

Pre-Blogging

My husband has been making fun of my blog, because I do not post everyday. He, however, is a pre-blogger. That's right folks, he pre-blogs. Right now he has a queue of about five posts just ready to publish. I think things like this run in the family. I have noticed that his mom pre-scrapbooks. She will cut everything out and plan her pages and then paste it all together at the scrapbook retreat. I love them both dearly and find their quirks very amusing. I think he is going to make a wonderful Dad!

Sick Baby

We got our April health update and pictures. The health report said that our little guy had the flu and a cold. Brian and I felt so bad, we wanted to rush down and hold him. Here are some pictures.

Happy Easter

Happy Easter! It is hard to go through another holiday without Cameron. We are anxiously waiting for our April pictures. This week has been difficult, but I am blessed to be surrounded by many loving and caring family members, and friends. A year from now this waiting will be a blur. God Bless!

Cameron's Angel

Last night I had a hard time falling asleep. It seems to be a reoccurring problem since my Mom suddenly passed away on Jan 18th this year. My mom loved Cameron, and was so excited to welcome him as her grandson. Every day she would call and tell me how she was looking at "her sweetie" - a picture she had of him on her computer. She told me that she was sending special angels to watch over him for us. I never guessed that she would be that special angel. When the waiting seems to be endless, I find comfort in the thought of my mom with Cameron. When it seems that the world is spinning out of control, it is comforting to think of the peace only God can bring.

Waiting for Pre-Approval

This is my first time blogging Yeah! My Husband and I are waiting for pre-approval so we can finally get into PGN. Yesterday I found a picture of Cameron on the orphanage website. Seeing pictures helps you remember why you are going through all of this waiting. He is so cute and such a blessing!
