In other words...

YES, I did take Lincoln and his two best friends to play at the mall.


YES, I did let them stand in the rain and admire the little worm.


YES, I did park in this spot.





NO, I AM NOT PREGNANT.


BUT
I am an expectant mother.
We are so grateful to have met Joanie.
We are so blessed that she has chosen to beat the odds.
(More on her to come soon.)

In other words,

She is due in 2 weeks. She is having a boy.

AND

SHE HAS CHOSEN US.

We are so grateful.

We want to thank our Heavenly Father for the miracles He gives us daily to let us know we are not forgotten.

We are grateful for the miracle of adoption.

We are grateful for our families support, prayers, and love.

We love you Joanie.

We are so blessed
