OUCH!

I started Jillian Michael's 30 Day Shred yesterday...ouch!!
I want to start training for a half-marathon, but I learned my lesson two years ago when I hurt my knees, and won't run without proper shoes. I hope to get some Vibram Five Fingers at the end of next month, so until then I'll work on my strength and cardio (and hopefully get rid of some of this baby belly!) with the Shred.

Maybe I'll get brave and post some before pictures. Or maybe I'll wait until I have some afters, and I'll share both.
 

Oh, my heart...

...my heart is feeling called, convicted.

As I scroll through the sweet faces on Reece's Rainbow, my heart aches. With sadness, and with longing. The time will come when God puts us in a place to bring home one of those sweet angels, I'm sure of it. I just pray that the time comes quickly!

This little face, especially, is just breaking my heart, in good ways and in sad ways.

Thadius

This is Thadius. Oh, sweet boy, I'll be praying for you. For a mama and a daddy to love on you, to make sure you are always safe and warm. I wish I could be your mama, but dear boy, I hope that by the time God prepares a way for us to adopt you will already be home with your forever family!





Lord, You know the desires of our hearts, and You long to give them to us! I'm so thankful! The time will come. I don't know when or how, but it will!

Just Maybe

I might be able to force myself to keep this up.

Thinking about trying again.

Life is much the same, but different.

I wonder if I can do it?

Just maybe...
