Great Day...Full of Success

We had our Pancake breakfast at Applebee's today and it was a success. We are so blessed to have the family and friends  that we have in our life. It was great seeing everyone and even though I didn't have a lot of time to mingle with you all it looked as though everyone had a great time.

I am so proud that our not so little boy was ready to help anyway he could. He seated people, he got people drinks, he asked if anyone needed anything. He helped out with anything he could. He is such a big kid and can't wait to be able to bring home a little one. We are hoping it won't be too long, but That is all in the good Lord's hands. Clayton created some awesome paintings to auction off at the event and they all went to great homes. He also had some smaller paintings that he sold and was really excited. Thanks to everyone who purchased one of his paintings. He has already said he will do more if anyone wants one, :) ! He is super excited and really enjoyed serving everyone today.

I didn't get a lot of pictures as we were pretty busy, but here are a few of those I took. Hope everyone had a great time and got a lot to eat.

Happy

I am happy! No we don't have a placement, but I am happy.

Yesterday was full of good things. I got to celebrate 14 years of marriage with my wonderful husband. These have been the best 14 years of my life.  God put us together and I know he is leading our lives.

I am happy that I have a precious son who I love SOOO much and is growing up so well.  He started 2nd grade yesterday and loved it. He wants to be an artist when he grows up. He's pretty good!

I am happy that God has put us on the path to adoption once again and that I know he is going to lead it. He is going to bring us another child to love and care for.

I am happy. God has blessed us greatly in our life and I know He isn't done. I have a house, a car, food to eat, air to breathe, I have all I need. What more could I ask for.

I am just happy today.
