The line is drawn in the sand!

There have been so many wonderful experiences about getting ready to adopt and completing all the work necessary to do so. We feel like our blessings are so plentiful and gracious. Words will never be able to express the love we have for our friends the E.....'s. About 11 years ago we met the most awesome friends. And the truth of the matter is that the course of our lives changed dramatically. The line was drawn in the sand! At sometime in every one's life I believe you come to a fork in the road. You are not really sure of which way to go. You may not even be thinking about what will happen next, but you are definitely forced to choose a road. I am here to tell you that we not only took the right road but we have the benefit of knowing and understanding our choice. Our children have what we consider a "dreamy" childhood and are able to love and be loved. Our friends have been so instrumental in this process. Sometimes C has to remind me that it is really true, as I often state my disbelief! We feel so blessed to have such amazing children and they have given us so much of our confidence because we know how loving and Christ like they are. They will embrace and love these children as if they have been with us forever.
As far as Adoption, we are now drawing another line in the sand. As we ponder our imperfections, there is one thing that we do know. Love for our children and the strength of our marriage and wonderful friends will get us through. Thank you to all of our amazing and wonderful friends who we love, admire and cherish. We live in an amazing little part of heaven!We want you to know how much your kindness and support means to us. xoxo

We too feel blessed and realize the unique situation we have as we raise our kids with much love and support by you and those around us. We are glad and fortunate your course in the "sand" was changed and that it led you to us and the friendship we have! We are looking forward to many adventures in the future!
Much love, Carrie and family
