There is this amazing couple who's blog I have been reading for a while. They are Tricia and Nate. http://cfhusband.blogspot.com/
Tricia has Cystic Fibrosis and is waiting to get a double lung transplant. This may happen tomorrow. They also have the cutest baby who's was born very early...amazing...please check out their blog and pray for a miracle that we know God can do. My heart is also breaking for the family who just lost a love one who's lung Tricia may receive. I am reminded of the song..Blessed be your name, the verse that says "he gives and takes away".
Love to all,
Renee

prayer request
We would like to ask for prayer for the files sitting in MOI waiting to be signed by the director and sent to immigration! Ours is one of them, along with some other good friends files. We are also praying for the next steps to move quickly..passports and visas!! :) Our boys have been waiting for so long...our family has been on this adoption journey for more than 3 years and we are weary, we are ready for them to be HOME, in our arms, being loved by US!!! We are anxious to hold them, read to them, tell them how treasured they are by us and by GOD. We know that each child that comes home is only by the GRACE and MERCY and STRENGTH of GOD. I am praising God for gift of these amazingly sweet boys. I look forward to the MIRACULOUS day when the boys will be here with us. What a day of rejoicing.
love you all...
Renee :)

TjTv
So, ya...tj borrowed our video camera and this is what he did...by the way, turbo jam is really a good workout and beachbody.com is where i have gotten a lot of my workout videos..he is so funny! You never know what he will come up with!!
And...he doesn't play football on the Milpitas Knights, although he is dying for me to say yes to him playing football, not sure if that's going to happen!!

blessed...
I have been feeling in a funk lately...the adoption waiting funk...in my time of reflecting I have to share how blessed I am. I am married to the sweetest, kindest, handsomest :) man. He loves me, loves our children and loves God with his whole heart and life.
He lets me be in my moods...tries to help me climb out of them...helps me see the good in life. I am so thankful to our Lord for allowing me to marry this amazing man. I love him so much. Sometimes i am too focused on my little world..i hate that about myself. I believe God is working on me in that area.
I love you honey, more than you know.
You are the bestest!!
XOXO

UGGGHHHHHHHHHH
I am soooo irritated...today i really DISLIKE a certain HIGH SCHOOL BOY!!!! This is one that my sweet daughter likes...he should feel blessed that she likes him and she keeps giving him chances and he keeps breaking her heart. She says he just doesn't know how to treat a girl and this is all making her stronger. She called me from school today and I only had a minute to talk to her but now I am mad and sad and UGGHHH. I know that I will have 3 high school boys and my goal is to teach them to 'not break girls hearts!!'
BOYS!!!

Jessica singing WHY
This is one of my favorite songs, and it is even better with my beautiful daughter Jessica singing it and my hubby playing piano!

TAYLOR
Compassionate, Caring and SPUNKY
Taylor is growing up! This past week she kept her room clean all week..because now it is her office! She is an Event Coordinator. She made a posterboard with wedding ideas, birthday party ideas etc. It is adorable. She got her first event to plan...i 'hired' her to help plan Solomon's 2nd birthday party. His party is on June 22...so, he better be home!
I really have seen signs of maturity and self control. She still has her innocent side, she played all weekend with the neighbor girls..they played house and dolls. We are proud of our Tay Tay.
