Busy Spring

We have had a busy spring.  It has been a time of excitement and disappointments for  our family.  Through it all, we know that God always had a plan.  Here are just a few pictures.

Emma always clowning around.

We started doing respite foster care.  Emma loves helping me take care of the little ones.  She is a good helper learning how to be a good mama one day.  It's a good ministry for us to do from home.

In April we spent a few days in Florida.  We were hoping to adopt Oliva Erin but God had different plans.  After taking care of her for three days, her mama changed her mind and decided to parent.  It was heart breaking but I knew when her mom couldn't go through with it, she wasn't our baby to take home.  

I was blessed to be her mom for three days! 

We were fortunate to spend a few days with cousins in Florida and Georgia before heading back home.  We were also blessed to visit with Emma's foster mom...we didn't have long enough to spend with any of these people we love!

Emma loved Sea world.

Our sweet Emma is always making us laugh!
