An Official Welcome and a Change in Topic

Well, I thought this would be a blog about adoption. Now the plan is to document my life.

Why the change?

I'm going to be honest. Our younger son has a few behavior issues. While they are not severe in any way, they are enough to question whether it would be a good idea to bring another child into our family. We are going to reevaluate our situation in six months or more. At that time, we will see if the situation has improved enough to pursue our plans.

In the meantime, I'm just going to plow along. I will share recipes I have tried, crafts that I will make, things we do with the family, and anything else I feel like adding. I hope you enjoy the journey with me.

Welcome!

The Beginning

I started this blog with the intent of sharing our adoption journey.  This is the beginning.  After years  of trying to have a baby on our own, my husband and I have put that chapter in our past and are looking forward to a new beginning.

I plan to share the ups and downs of bringing another child into our home.  The good, the bad, the ugly.  This will include things that may be hard to share.  Someday, this blog will be a record of a life-changing period in our lives. I hope that we will be able to read it and see things differently once we have our child in our home.

Thanks for joining me in this journey.
