Life is Unpredictable

Life is unpredictable. When you are faced with too much and feel like you can't handle anymore, God sends a smile your way. Life is unpredictable and its not the situations you face that matter, but rather your reactions to them. Clint and I are learning how to react better. We are teaching each other how to see the glass half full. We are facing life's unpredictability together...

Since our last post (and its been awhile), our friends got married, we explored San Diego, a family friend passed away, our family came together to support each other during a stressful time (that's what family does) and we even received another adoption update. Life is unpredictable, but its all about how you react.

San Diego was beautiful. We had a wonderful time exploring the city, visiting with friends and seeing Brian and Elizabeth tie the knot. The wedding was beautiful and their love for each other was visible in every detail of the day. During our time in San Diego, we tried to see all the sites, but it wasn't really possible. We made it to Sea World and the Wild Animal Park, and enjoyed being tourists together.

When we arrived home, we found out that our dear friend, Marian, had passed away. She was a beautiful woman with a huge heart. Marian was a blessing to everyone she met and she will be truly misssed.

On to the news you have been waiting for....today we received an adoption update. Two birth mothers are considering us. One is due in December and the other is due in March. While there is a chance neither will work out, it is reassuring to know that each month we take one step closer to expanding our family.
