where did the time go?

well...I didn't mean to take such a long bloggy break.  let's see if we can catch up.
we went to the beach!

and then, we spent time in Georgia with family and friends.

helped throw a baby shower for my bestie, nat!

ate ethiopian food and prayed and prayed that God would send us our little one.

and came home....just in time...for eden to start PRESCHOOL!!!
she was a little emotional.  I was a LOT emotional.  but she loves it and we are SO proud of her.

so, there you have it...3 weeks in a nut shell.
so thankful for our life!
as you can see we are still waiting for our referral.  9 1/2 months of official waiting.  we really don't have any idea how much longer we'll wait.  we are trusting God.  and we are so thankful for all of your prayers and kind words...it means the world!  tonight at dinner eden prayed that God would be with her baby brother, and that he would come home to us soon so that we can stop missing him so much.  I had to keep my head down for a few extra seconds to dry the tears :)  I pray the same things, sweet girl.
