First Week of 2012


First week in January has passed... I've fallen behind on my goals already! What about you? Ben is doing great with his weight loss goals! He ran 10 miles this week! I did 0! So very proud of him! Next week, he will go for a crash course in Marriage and Family in Hattiesburg to USM to help get ahead and graduate hopefully, earlier! Then, I am off to Imaging USA in New Orleans for a 5 day photography conference! Can't wait to soak up all that knowledge and put it to use!

Kids are doing well. Their grandparents bought them a trampoline for Christmas... will have to get some jumping pictures! It is a blessing to hear their squeals and laughter as they play.

Hopefully, this first week of January has met you with grace and blessings abundantly... even when we don't understand the reasons for the detours, we have opportunity to enjoy the scenary along the way!

Hello! My name is Bekah and I read about your first adoption story on CHI's website. How exciting to see on this blog that you all are adopting again! My husband and I are at the very beginning of the adoption process (praying, talking, reading, seeking) and wondering what you thought of CHI - for example, would you/are you using them again? I read some less than complimentary reviews online, so I thought it wouldn't hurt to ask someone who had walked through the process with them before. If you ever have a minute to spare, I would love to hear your thoughts, or at the very least, a yea or nay. Blessings to all of you in this new year, and congrats again on your upcoming adoption!
