Adoption Stories

One of the blogs I sometimes read (hello there, Other Harper!), Kelly's Korner is sharing adoption stories today.

I don't have one specific post talking about our adoption, but if you're interested in reading about our journey to Emerson, there is an "adoption" tag on the right sidebar. This past September we brought our beautiful three-year old daughter Emerson home from China. Here are a few of the highlights:

It's been quite the journey so far, and it just keeps getting better. God has blessed us so, so much!

Maybe I'll Blog in 2011...

...and maybe I'll even get around to it later this week.

In the meantime, go read Missy's post. Sorta takes New Year's resolutions past "let's get in shape and try to eat better."

Happy New Year. Four days late.

Must Read

Sometimes I run across blogs (you know, when I'm sitting around eating bon-bons and surfing the net while the children happily play educational games together) that I cannot stop reading.  Please check this one out:

Warning:  this is a highly addictive blog.  An amazing testimony written by a husband and father about the faithfulness and perfect timing of God.  If you have an extra couple of hours, start from the very beginning and read up until now.  Uh-mazing.  Otherwise, just get caught up by clicking on the link on the right side of the blog.  Enjoy and be blessed.  Have tissues handy, sister-in-laws of mine.  Don't say I didn't warn you.
