Happy birthday.
ReplyDeleteHi there! Thanks for stopping by our blog! Wondering if you're still considering China? And where you feel God leading you to adopt? This is very exciting! Even though we feel like we know God's plans for the next few years for our family, we will never say we're done! I still have dreams of loving another baby thru foster adoption. Never say never!
