Referral Anniversary




So I missed posting the photos I took of Malia to celebrate the one year anniversary from referral. I am slow because of vacation and these photos ended up in that same file on my computer so they got lost in the shuffle. I can't believe that on March 31st that we will have been together a year already. At times it seems like we have been together forever and other times it seems like just yesterday. It is also hard to believe how little LID's have been matched in one year. With my referral batch in Feb 08 they got through 12/27/05 and now they are just matching through 3/6/06 (we think). I just pray that the children are getting the homes they deserve and not just sitting in orphanages. I also pray that my friends waiting get their referrals quickly (well as quickly as this process is allowing).

  4. It is so funny because I have been at my new job for one year, and I remember so vividly just starting out and every morning checking the blog for new pictures while you were in China. It always was the best start to my day! (I LOVE LOVE LOVE the dress)
