Loneliness

The road to adoption is a very lonely one when there is no one to share it with. I liked this blog's take on it. Unfortunately I am not at the point where I have a child in my arms and can look back on all this like a bad dream. It's hard not to get discouraged when I see everyone who is pregnant getting to share all their experiences both good and bad with others who have been where they are, but I have no one to share my experiences with who really understands what I'm going through, and certainly not anyone who is going through the same thing I am. I keep trying to tell myself that I'm "expecting" too, but it's hard to think like that when I don't know what month I'm "due" or even what YEAR I'm "due." Please pray God sends me and Nate comfort.

You Tube Video and Snow

I created a you tube video for our adoption profile. I basically used pictures from our profile book, but believe me, it wasn't as easy as it looks! You can view our video here, and please feel free to pass it on to anyone you want!

In other news, we got a TON of snow yesterday. Of course I was out of school, and I am now on day two of snow days, and it's looking like there might be a day 3. This is a little out of control though, because we don't have any built in days, so we will have to make up all these days at the end of the year, which stinks. Here are some pictures of the snow at our house!

I also made snow ice cream for the first time! I was very proud of myself!
