Spring time!

I absolutely love this time of year. The snow in our yard has finally melted, the sun is out which means the neighborhood kids are starting to play outside (love that!), the streets are filled with walkers, runners and bikers, the feeling of the warm sun on my skin, NO COATS (very excited about that) or heavy layering just to go outside, birds chirping, green grass, flowers and trees budding. It just makes me feel alive and grateful to be alive.

 It's also incredible to me how a warm and sunny day can lift ones mood and spirits. I took a minute today to sit outside and just feel the warmth on my skin while Gabe played on the lawn and I couldn't help but reflect on the season and all the new growth and life that comes with it. Gabe's prayers for a sibling have become more fervent of late. While it is so cute and touching that he has so much faith and is willing to continually ask for what he wants it also breaks my heart. I've felt lately as though our little family could be in for some changes, like things are stirring up and the starts may just align in our favor. I sure hope so. I'd give anything to fulfil Gabe's hopes and dreams for a sibling. =)

Sometimes, I wonder if this is a blog for prospective birth parents to read to get to know us a little better or if it is more a journal of my random ramblings. BUT...that being said, if anyone out there is reading this, I hope they would feel that they could approach us at any time with further questions. We are happy to communicate via phone, email, texting and are open to any and all questions.

Since today is so nice, I think a trip to the park is in order. For dinner....I think pizza in the park will be fun and a nice distraction.
