August 22,1998 and August 22,2011

On Saturday August 22,1998 Jason and I were married. We we thrilled to be married even when some of our friends thought we were jumping the gun. Well, we are the ones that are still together and none of our friends that were together then, are together now.

We always knew we wanted children. We always thought a boy and a girl would be awesome. We never dreamed that having a family was going to be difficult. We did fertlity for four years, acupunture for a year and finally came to the decision that we were done with this stuff. We never dreamed in a million years that we were to travel around the world to be united with our daughter. God had a plan completely different then the plan Jason and I had. Also, so competely amazing and profoundly unique and awesome.

Four and half years we waited, with rude comments from family, friends and outsiders, Jason and I struggled with the thought we maybe waiting years longer. We did alot of soul searching and research on adopting a child with a minor correctable need and we are so happy we did.

AUGUST 22.2011

Thirteen years later... Jason and I didn't go out for dinner, didn't buy cards or flowers or jewerlly but we finally had our daughter home and had to visit Mac with her. Just a check up to make sure everything was great. This is our miracle and we feel turly blessed with her in our lives.
