Just a few things to note in this journal of mine:
1. Convo between me and Halle Caroline this morning:
me: Halle Caroline!!! You made a 70 on your Africa vocab quiz!!!
HC: well, it wasn't about Ethiopia. I make a 100 on everything about Ethiopia!!!
nice Halle Caroline. way to make your little bro proud.
2. Brooks has officially turned into a teenager. Pray for me. And I hear that 7th grade girls are horrible as well. I've got 4 months. Pray for me some more.
3. I am about to pick Brooks up from school to take him shopping for his 8th grade dance/banquet thingy. Pray for me some more.
4. I am beginning to think that people don't believe we are adopting. This is taking so long. I actually avoid people sometimes, because I know that they might ask about the adoption. I am so sick of saying, "we're just waiting". It really stinks.
5. It's really hard having 2 girls doing the same sport. Hurts a momma's heart sometimes.
That's all for today. Happy Friday and weekend!

Happy weekend to you!
Oh, and Ethiopia is more important, anyway. She's just focused!
We LOVE our beach towels!!! Thank you so much, Heather! They are perfect!!! :)
I'm cracking up at this post, because this Momma can relate..let me tell ya!
My oldest son is going to middle school next year...feeling my pain?
And we've totally been there with the waiting...we started our adoption process in 2007 and just in the last couple of years have had any 'proof' that it was in fact for real!
oh--and I have two boys...and they're always compared...and my girls are 6 months apart...it's really hard to hear some of the comments people will say. I am like..really? I'm the Momma to ALL of these kiddos...hello?? Did you really just say that out loud?? Celebrating that each of my children were UNIQUELY and WONDERFULLY made by my God...perfectly created for HIS PURPOSE! Keep that in mind..but it still hurts!!!
Thanks for sharing this fun post!
The waiting stinks and yes I avoid people when I know they will ask about the adoption. Its really no fun to have to reply that we are just waiting! I hope you hear something soon!!
