An ongoing tale of our most excellent (and terrifying) adventure yet.. adoption via foster care. This is a journey Darling Husband and I started with Nantie ("Nanny-Auntie" - a blessing from above) in 2007. Although she moved in 2010, we miss her dearly and so appreciate all she did while here.
We also have a herd of rescued canines, fear the Lord and laugh a lot.
August, 2011: Seven amazing placements and a week after we were told LittleBuddy and SweetPea were available for us to adopt, my husband passed away unexpectedly.
April, 2012: I had the honor of adopting my darling 7 year old son (Little Buddy) and 3 1/2 year old sister (SweetPea). I awoke the following day a 40something, widowed single mommy... and couldn't of been happier.
In 1999, a year after my own mother passed away I found out I, myself, was an adopted county baby. Life has some ironic twists but we all seem to come

Oh, WOW! My "babies" have never had one of those.
Beautiful pic. Says so much about how loved JB is.
Love the picture.
~visiting from Perfect Moment Monday.
What a lovely picture.
That sounds like a perfect moment. I love the photo!
I looked up Elk in my book, Animal Speak," by Ted Andrews and some key words are: strength, nobility, power and stamina.
Isn't that perfect for how you and your DH approach each of the kids you have fostered?
According to this book (pp 270-271), "If an elk has come into your life it can mean that you are about to hit your stride. Elk may also have shown up to teach you how to pace yourself more effectively. Have you been overdoing? Have others around you? Have you given up or thought about giving up too soon?"
Thought you might find that interesting...
Thanks for sharing your perfect moment!
