Big Blur

The last couple of days are a bit of a blur. I have had a lot on my plate and somehow I have managed to get a lot of stuff done. I haven't kept up with phone calls, exactly, but I have to start somewhere.

Yesterday I spent most of time working on things related to adoption. I met with Faith and Rick about the Adoption Ministry that we are starting at TPCC. In addition to this we had our second homestudy for our latest adoption adventure. It's an adventure because you just never know what's going to happen and how things are going to go. So far in our journey with Joseph we have been so blessed! Each day is something new and exciting. It's fun!!!

Since I have had adoption on the brain lately I decided to get on Google today and see what popped up when I used adoption in the search line. Wow!! Lots of good stuff out there compared to what was there just 6 years ago. But there was one negative thing. It's some sort of petition that is going around asking for an end to adoption. It talks about how awful adoption is and how people who adopt are kidding themselves, etc. I was stunned. What has happened to these people that these are their feelings? And these people were talking about ALL adoptions, not just those adoptions that are illegal. How could someone look at my beautiful son and our incredible relationship with him and say that it's bad? I just don't understand people.

On a much happier note, I spent the majority of my day working with my good friend Vicki B on how we can come together and improve her businesses. She is a Pampered Chef Consultant and a realtor. She does a great job with both, but by working together we are hoping to make it more efficient. I think it will work, but only time will tell.
