It's hard to believe we are already celebrating another birthday with her! Happy 3rd Birthday, Angel! You continue to touch the lives of so many. You have grown and learned so much in the past year, what progress you are making!!!
I'm a little behind on posting but wanted to share that I had a wonderful opportunity last week to share our "testimony" on unconditional love in adoption during the Mother's Day sermon at our church. For anyone who is interested, here is a link to the sermon where you can listen to it:
Building Blocks of Motherhood Sermon - select the 5/9/10 sermon. If you want to hear just my portion, fast forward to about the last fifteen minutes of the sermon. Listen to the pastor for the little bit before to understand more of the message I was to give.
I've gotten lots of great feedback on it, so glad I could share. Hopefully, I have planted a seed for others to begin their own adoption journey.

Wow, I can't believe Angel is 3!!! It was so great to see her yesterday and wish her a happy day. :) She truly is a gift - one of God's own angels, and it is a blessing to know her.
Speaking of blessings, your testimony was amazing! Thank you so much for sharing a tidbit of your journey with us. Your family is an tremendous gift to us as well. Thank you for being you, Tracy!
