Happy Month # 7!!!!!

What do you do when you have been sick all week with the flu and there is snow outside covering the spring flowers you planted last week? Make cute little springy images to celebrate the seven months you have been waiting since the adoption paper work has been sitting on some shelve in China waiting to be reviewed.

About a year ago we were in the midst of our paper chasing and I saw this cute little dress at Costco and bought it. Funny thing is that I bought it thinking that there might be a chance that Grace could maybe wear it this year for Easter. Boy...I never would have thought back then that not only would she not be wearing this dress for Easter this year but there is a really good chance that she may not even wear it next Easter. I am learning to not put those expectations upon this wait anymore. I am really going with the flow. It is my way to cope. I still have been purchasing things for her (in fact I had a fun shopping spree at the outlet mall this past weekend) but I don't put any real expectations on timing anymore. God knows when the time is right and I need to be OK with that!

But I am so ready to be well again and please no more snow....come on spring!!!!!!!!!!!!!
