Absolutely! What a gorgeous photo of you and your daughter. xoxo
This is my first Perfect Moment Monday post since your husband's death and it is surreal to be back here on your blog after everything that has happened. I know I have posted on other of your posts since, but before he passed away I *only* knew you because of Lori's blog hop.
If I could bring your husband back I would do it in a second, but I am grateful that finding out, following and writing about Lori's tweeting his funeral has brought you and I into each other's orbits, beyond capturing and commenting on perfect moments. I hope that you have a wonderful week filled with many more perfect moments.
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 Full Circle
This is our story.
