Peace is what we're feeling these days. A dear friend of mine included a passage in her latest e-mail. It's Psalms 126:5 "Those who sow in tears will reap with songs of joy." For some reason this brought me a sense of peace.
Another reason is that Matt and I have decided to pursue adoption...and we're so excited! I feel like a weight has been lifted from my shoulders and that we're finally on a path that WILL bring us joy. It's wonderful for us to think that our desires of having a family could possibly be months away! This road will no doubt have it's roadblocks...possible heartache as well, but it WILL end with a baby being placed in our arms. This process is long...especially the initial processing, paperwork, spilling your life and heart out to only be judged whether you are "worthy" enough of giving a child a home, but it will all be worth it. I feel that in my heart.
So today we're celebrating! We're GOING to have a BABY! :)

I agree with Cory...this sweet baby will be so, so lucky and blessed to have such amazing parents. Hoping this new journey brings you much love and happiness!
Wow!! I should just print all of these words of support and send them to our agency. :) They'd be sure to approve us then!!
Thank you all SO much for this support ~ you really have no idea how much it means to us. I think this baby will be blessed to have all of YOU! :)
You're having a baby! I am so beyond excited for this journey...for you and for matt and for this beautiful little soul that is destined to be a part of your amazing love.
Your writing always bring tears to my eyes! I've been praying for you for months!!! One of my friends just went through the adoption process and ended up getting two. If you go to my page I have a link to her blog about the whole process... if you have any questions I can get you her email.
Its Erin Wallers blog
Sooo exciting! God knew there was a precious little life out there who needed a thoughtful and loving mommy and daddy like you two! This baby will definetely be blessed!
Congratulations!!
I dont know you but I worked for Cory and with your sweet mom. She would always keep me updated on things. I am sorry to hear of your loss. I am so happy that you have chosen to adopt! I placed my daughter for adoption 5 years ago and it was the BEST choice I have ever made. My life is full due to her parents. I hope you find your little one soon! God Bless!
Jamie,
I am so happy for you and Matt that you have found PEACE! I know for me scripture often will find its way into my heart when I need peace and calming. I know this journey will be an amazing one. I am so very happy for you both. Enjoy the journey and the process leading up to the arrival of your little one. God Bless!
