Happy Day at Our Home

Well hello everyone.I just checked my mail and guesswhat,WE have a fingerprint appointment.It is the day before Thanksgiving.Tis the month to be thankful, for one more step closer to our little "Maiya".I am smiling from ear to ear.I no way expected it to happen this fast. Especially since we had some paperwork issues.I know we will have to wait still for approval,but how long that will be I do not know, and that is okay. My friend Janene is gonna watch our boys while we are gone. They recommend that you do not bring kids.I hope we are in and out quick. Even if we have to wait,who cares,it is just a blessing to be one more step closer.God is guiding our way to our daughter. HAPPY DAY!!!!!!!!!

Conversations about Adoption!

Well I have been substitute teaching here lately.I was teaching at preschool today,when I met a nice woman who was the assistant teacher.We hit it off good.It turns out we had some things in common with people we knew and all.She started to ask me questions about the adoption. Like a ton of questions.Some I thought were private to me,but I answered them the best way I could. I don't think she was trying to be nosey,but she just wanted to know in a interesting way.This I have to say was the first time that I was approached with such questions,but I liked it!It prepares you for more comments later and you educate someone else on adoption.

Now to the dentist part.My oldest son Bailey went to the dentist today with Shane (my husband).Shane was telling me how the hygentist was asking Bailey if he had any brothers or sisters.Bailey said,"I have a brother Adyn,and a sister on the way."And she said,"When is she coming?"Bailey said,"I don't know you will have to ask my dad."
Shane said then they got into the adoption dicussion and he told her all about it.So needless to say adoption awareness was spread around a couple times today. I am so happy about that and I hope something great comes out of it with other families.Since November is Adoption Awareness month,I thought this would be neat to share. Hope we all move in a step soon....By the way I like the ETSY website,I am gonna try and order a cute elephant for Maiya's room!! Thanks to the LABONTE family for sharing this website,I am HOOKED!!!!!Gidget
