What a weekend! Makenna's birthday party was Saturday - it was lots of fun, even though several kids who said they would be there didn't show up. We quickly learned on Sunday the reason why. I had written Sunday on at least half the invitations...so, with a little quick thinking - Makenna literally had 2 identical birthday parties - only with different kids each day!!! I don't know how that happened, I felt SO stupid, it's a sure sign that we have A LOT to think about right now!!! It turned out ok, Makenna was happy, and it makes for a great story in years to come... :-) My brain is going in 100 different directions with questions, reminders, things I need to buy, things I need to ask, things I need to do - AAAAHHHHH!!!!! I'm not going completely crazy though. I feel like everything is coming together - I know we have A LOT of people praying for us and I KNOW God is watching out for us. I am SO VERY excited - but even more excited to get back. The whole trip and the unknowns makes me feel a little anxious.
Didn't hear from OHSU today, so I will give them a call tomorrow. It's late and I want to get some good sleep tonight. Good night! :-)
It is here that I've been documenting our adoption story. It was a discouraging journey for many years, but we are now in the midst of an amazing story. Kahlia has blessed us beyond words. She has filled our hearts completely with who God made her to be, and none of us could imagine our life with out her. We are now a family of six and continue on with the journey we call LIFE. Colossians 1:17 - He is before all things, and in Him all things hold together.
