Waiting way to long for their children!


I'm thankful everyday for my son Devin and that Danilo and Maysa are home. However, my heart aches for the family's still waiting for their children. I can't even begin to understand what they are going through.
I remember when their was so much uncertainty in Maysa's case and I was so stressed, depressed, sad, anxious and my mind and heart were going crazy with all the uncertainty. I honestly don't know how I got through it. I remember sometimes I would just go into a robot mode...just getting through the day was a task and I lived on the computer looking at timeline's, yahoo groups, adoption updates and news.
I have put a list of a few blogs I follow on my links. I know their are more of you and my heart goes out to all of you. I follow these blogs daily waiting to read about any progress in their case's to bring their children home. I believe in my heart that all these children will come home and that they are all so fortunate to have their family's fighting to bring them home.
I think sometimes when ones dreams and wishes come true we tend to forget about those who are still waiting for their dreams and wishes...for those of you still waiting...there are family's who are here still praying and waiting to see your children home with you soon!

Guess Who's Turning Two Today?





My Maysa turns two years old today!
She had a party on Saturday at Jumpin’ Jacks. I was a little unsure if she would jump on the inflatable’s or not...well let’s just say it wasn’t a problem...she loved it!
Maysa now says she’s two while holding up four fingers...she loved opening up her presents at her party and would hand them back to the people who game them to her...after a few more gifts she got the hang of it.
I’m so thankful that Maysa is home and we are all together to celebrate her 2nd birthday!
Happy Birthday Maysa!
We Love You!

HAPPY EASTER!






We had a great day at Grandma and Grandpa's! The kids played football with their cousins, hunted for eggs and came home with to much stuff as usual. The weather was cold and windy as it is every Easter...we still had a great time.
Happy Easter to you all!

OK...had to add some more photos








I forgot about this Easter Egg coloring thing...ugh
The kids reminded me about 3pm that we needed to color Easter eggs. So I ran to Target to get eggs, boiled them and then stressed that someone was going to spill or make a mess. We did pretty good this year, except Devin had a blowing out-an-egg accident. So now just when I had nothing else to do this evening, I get to wash shoes, pants and my kitchen rug--Yeah...LOL.

Gettin Ready for Easter Sunday








Maysa had a practice run looking for Easter eggs at daycare. It's amazing how quick she understood what we were doing. She hasn't ever tried much chocolate or candy...she loves it! I had to hide her Easter basket so she wouldn't have any more tantrums. Easter Sunday we will go to Grandma and Grandpas for lunch and more egg hunting. More pics to come!
