Malaria Day!

Wow it is getting close!. My passport arrived in time and I am off to Uganda!. Today I start Malaria medication just a small reminder of how they live everyday. It has been a busy week. We have been blessed with donations to take down to the children. I woke up this morning to new pictures of our princess. Oh how I wish I could post them here!...I promise as soon as I can I will give you a sneak peek.

As I sit and type this so many things I want to say. We have seen and heard some unethical things concerning adoptions lately. This is not an easy ride nor is it for everyone. We feel very blessed that we are given these trials. Hopefully it is taking a little off of her. She is such an angel. Please pray that we are able to get the answers we need to bring her home to us.

Thank you for everyone that has donated. We have a HUGE raffle starting next week please stay tuned for the information on that! You can win a kindle, $500, plus tons more!!!!

Poem for today...As I think of her mother....I hope she knows the love for this little one........

Once there were two women who never knew each other.
One you do not remember, the other you call Mother.
Two different lives shaped to make you one.
One became your guiding star, the other became your sun
The first one gave you life, and the second taught you to live it.
The first gave you a need for love. The second was there to give it.
One gave you a nationality. The other gave you a name.
One gave you a talent. The other gave you aim.
One gave you emotions. The other calmed your fears.
One saw your first sweet smile. The other dried your tears.
One sought for you a home that she could not provide.
The other prayed for a child and her hope was not denied.
And now you ask me, through your tears,
the age-old question unanswered through the years.
Heredity or environment, which are you a product of?
Neither, my darling. Neither. Just two different kinds of Love.
