30 days since our official LID (log in date)… 30 days waiting for our LOA (Letter of Approval)… Although the Chinese New Year has everything closed for a bit…I’m hoping they are moseying back in the office soon and our papers will be on the right desk at the right time. It’s been about 130 […]

Author Archives: admin Ever find yourself at one of those life stages where you feel like you could just walk around with a recorder of treasured moments? I’m there. Listening to my littles process and answer things…and many times just listening to conversation between them. Some funny…some thought-provoking…some just silly… making this momma laugh. Here are some things […] Preciousness! Kids do say the sweetest things! I teach kindergarten and I hear lots of sweet treasures all day. The best yet was when one of my kinders said, Mrs Chalker, I love you bigger than Jesus! She also told me I smelled like an angel once. Melt my heart. Sweet! Have you already bought Valentine’s for your love or littles? Here’s an amazing way to show your love–AND help Edgar’s new family bring him home! They are having a fundraiser this week “Valentines for Edgars” with the goal to have 250 people give $5…250 to buy a “Virtual Valentine” for Edgars. READ ABOUT THEIR GOAL […]  Today was the daddy daughter dance for my man and his little girl–and it was Loo-bear’s FIRST daddy daughter dance EVER. Sweetness. Of course procrastination mommy waited until today to buy her a dress…so after we finished our school work today, we loaded up and while the babes were in preschool–we hit a few stores. […] What a super sweet gift God gave you in unexpectedly sort of ‘shortening’ your time…not that it really is…but in making it feel like it is! That’s so cool! And He can absolutely do May, too! And what a precious evening it sounds like you each had on your ‘dates’ – the one at school and the one at home! I have 4 grown daughters and know those feelings that you experienced when dress shopping with them. My oldest daughter always picked out prints that contained the color black. I protested, but my husband gently told me to allow her to be whom God had created her to be. He was such a wise man! All 4 of my daughters are unique and different in personality….lovely and beautiful inside and out. They are my greatest blessings! I don’t think I’ve ever commented but I LOVE your blog and I follow you on Facebook… So excited for you! I can’t wait until we are there, our homestudy is done and we are anxiously awaiting our I800A approval. Eeek! Following you makes me realize that this will actually happen and all this waiting is worth it! 🙂 So thank you and keep the good news coming! 🙂 |
