Taking a Break.....

In six days, we will have been LID for 29 months. There are currently 251 LID days in front of ours (11/14/06). I have no idea if we are even half way there. When I'm feeling hopeful, I think maybe. But when I think about how slowly we are getting there, my heart breaks. I have so much to be thankful for and I need to focus on what is here. The twins graduate from 8th grade next month. Tyler comes home from college in early May. We have a trip abroad and family vacations planned for this summer. We have high school and freshman football to look forward to next fall. I want to redecorate the boys rooms, and do some more outside activities. I want to be present for all of it and I need to take a break from this.

I so want to be excited again. I have endless love in my heart for Lilly. I'm holding onto hope and my faith. My prayers will continue......

Happy Easter

I love Easter week. We have lots of special things to look forward to over the next several days. The twins are in a Passion play tonight, Holy Thursday, Good Friday, Easter Vigil, and Easter Sunday. I feel very blessed!
