Wow - it's been too long!

So, I just realized it's been over 2 years since I've been online and so many wonderful things have happened. What I've learned over the past 2 years is the importance of faith in my life...and trusting God's plan. If I sit quietly enough, then He will guide us...and that's EXACTLY what has happened.

Jackson (our little guy from Russia) turned 8 and is doing so well! He started 2nd grade this year - and with the right academic and therapeutic support continues to amaze us. The past 2 years, he's had amazing teachers who have also believed in him and made him feel so special. For all of you fellow mothers - the only advice I have is to trust your gut...you know what's best for your child and if we wait for others to intervene, you'll be waiting a very long time.

I've decided that sometime in my life my goal is to help other families struggle with what we've been through....it's the least I can do. And, looking back, I wouldn't change a thing. I'm so blessed to have 3 amazing children...and God continues to remind each and every day.
