Sweet Lydia, you are right, We are FAMILY!!</div>

<div align="center">
Happy Birthday to our sweet baby doll. You are as sweet on the inside as you are beautiful on the outside. You bring so much joy, laughter and love to our lives. You were such a special gift 3 years ago. We were heart broken and instantly you made it all better! Not a day goes by that I don't thank Jesus for you. You have taught me to forgive more often, eat chocolate for breakfast, and that there is always time for "just one more kiss" I look forward to our "coffee and bible" time in the morning and pray you always love Jesus with all your heart! Love you to the moon and back "sissy" </div>

Ms Kathy has a long going tradition for the kids. She has us all over and with the help of her daughters, makes a huge pot of taco soup. Everyone brings snacks and we sit and enjoy one anothers company! The kids play football in the front yard and then we all go trick or treating together as a group. One of our biggest blessings since having children has been not only Ms. Kathy, but the friendships we have made with her family and the other parents and kids who go to her house! We are going to miss her terribly when the kids get in school</div>

Turner invited his BFF over for a sleep over. They boys had a blast. JOhn made home made pizzas,they played and wrestled outside then we watched movies and enjoyed pop corn! But when bed time came around, Gabe decided he missed his mommy and wanted to go home. It was so cute, Gabe told Turner maybe he could just come spend the night at his house. Turner looked and me and said in a soft and sweet voice, "I think I would miss my mommy too!" Sweetness! </div>

I will apologize in advance for all the pictures, but these are for Aunt CC & E. The birthday was originally scheduled for Friday night and a bad storm came thru and it rained all day and all night! So we had to reschedule for Sunday. The weather was perfect! Not a cloud in the sky and pure sunshine!</div>

His smile absolutely melts my heart! He has a heart of gold and loves to tell people about Jesus and pray at dinner time. The other day we were in the store and there was a deformed lady, he got very sad and quiet....once in the car, he asked if we could pray to Jesus to make her look like him so people wouldn't be scared of her. I love his compassion and empathy and prays he always shows it to those who need it the most</div>

Turner we love you to the moon and back. So thankful you made me a mommy first. I love your spunk, your heart and your silliness. You have taught me to have patience, not to take life so seriously, and that I need to slow down and just play more often. Our lives would be so boring without you. I pray you always love Jesus, read books, act silly, never stop dancing and sing praise and worship music at the top of your lungs. You bring so much joy to our lives. You will always be my baby boy no matter how old you are...</div>

So I've found one thing that's harder to do with 3 kids! BLOGGING!! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So here goes Nora's 2nd AND 3rd month update.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
We are 3 months into being a family of 5 and still loving every minute. I often find myself in awe of how "easy" it has been. Now don't get me wrong we have our moments but my fear of failure with 3 kids weighed heavy on my heart months leading up to Nora. I already had my hands full with 2 so how could I really add another one into the mix and succeed! Well now I know those fears were of the devil! </div>

Turner and Lydia adore their "Baby Nora" I'm guessing she will be 15 and they are still going to be calling her "Baby Nora" They love holding her and most of all talking to her since she now smiles at them.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
Not only does she smile ALL the time she is also "talking" up a storm. She wakes up every morning in the sweetest mood. She's not too hungry, she just wants to be held and talked to. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
She is on a good schedule-eating about every 3-4 hours and PRAISE JESUS, still sleeping thru the night. She usually takes a few cat naps in the morning, then a 3 hour nap from 12:30-3:30 then she's up for most the evening which is perfect so the kids and daddy get to play with her! She doesn't miss a thing. Then she usually goes down about 8:30 in the evening, we wake her around 10:30 for a final feeding before calling it a night. She sleeps until 7:00 or even a little later.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
She is so very laid back and rarely fusses. People I see on a daily basis can't believe they have never heard her cry....I'm telling you- she's perfect in every single way! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
At 2 months, she weighs 12 lbs and 10 oz which is in the 95% and is 22 1/2. She is our chunky monkey for sure. Turner and Lydia never had the baby rolls on their legs or the double chin- so I'm loving this 1st!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
She has the most beautiful blue eyes (from her birth grandpa) that just like her big sisters, light up a room. Her eye lashes are gorgeous. </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
And this smile melts our hearts! So blessed she's ours! We've seen her birthmom and grandparents several times over the last 3 weeks and with each visit, we draw closer and closer to them. Her birthmom told me this week they were all so afraid that they would never see her again even though we promised that would not be the case. I'm so relieved they want to have an ongoing relationship with us. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Its a beautiful thing and one of the biggest blessings of all 3 of our adoptions.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
There you have it - We are in love and are having a blast! </div>

This picture just melts my heart. Lydia's birthmom Kassandra has been one of our biggest prayer warriors over the past several months. She has encouraged me and given me so much hope. I love you so so so much Kassandra. I couldn't hand pick a better birthmom for Lydia and so blessed you're my dear friend!</div>

Well, we've come a long way since my last post. Our journey to Nora has had so many twists and turns but God remained faithful as promised. My hearts desire is that our journey glorified HIS Kingdom and will serve as a reminder of his faithfulness and may even encourage others to never loose faith despite heart ache, anger, and confusion.</div>

The admiration and love I have for her mom can never be put into words. She is kind, loving, strong (she gave birth 100 % natural) quiet, brave, sensitive, joyful and is just as beautiful on the inside as she is on the outside. We are so blessed by her selfless act to choose adoption and we celebrate that she wants to have an on going relationship with us! During Nora's birth, we had the privilege to meet her grandma and grandpa, 1 aunt, and 1 uncle and her birthmom's best friend. It was truly a family affair. We look forward to getting to know them better over the years.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
These 1st 4 days with sweet Nora were such were a blur but oh so wonderful. Our hearts were broken into a million pieces when we had to give her back...but 3 weeks later God put the pieces back together! After 2 weeks with her birthmom, promises weren't being upheld and her birthmom knew deep in her heart, adoption was the best choice for her daughter....so through a string of phone calls and visits, she changed her mind and relinquished her rights. All of this went on while we were in Florida with the Satterfields....unknown to us :) Deaconess wanted to protect our hearts just in case something went wrong. In the mean time, for an entire week, this precious precious family loved on our baby girl for us. One bright sunny Monday afternoon, I got a call from Meghan with Deaconess which I thought was a bit strange since we had taken our name off the list for a few months. We chit chatted for a while then she proceeded to tell me she had really been working hard while we were on vacation....I was still a bit puzzled and asked what she meant. She then told me the entire story and asked if we wanted to come pick up our baby girl!!!! Of course we did...and less than an hour after that phone call, we held her in our arms again, but this time forever! </div>

The last week has been a roller coaster of emotions: excitement, fear, joy, panic, and heart break. We got a call early last week about a birthmom who popped into our adoption agency looking for forever parents for her unborn baby girl. She was Choctaw so it was an easy match since John has his Choctaw registration card. We felt like this was the little doll baby that would complete our family. We have had 2 failed adoptions since March and we really believed all the brokeness was leading up to this blessing..</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
We were honored to witness sweet baby Nora Sophia Rose's birth on Friday morning and spent the next several days bonding with her and her birthmom. We brought her home with us on Saturday afternoon and introduced her to family and friends. Turner & Lydia instantly fell in love with their "Baby Nora". </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Then out of no where- our world was turned upside down by one little call....on Monday the birthmom had changed her mind, she had decided to parent. </div>

Needless to say, this song explains EXACTLY how I am feeling...absolutely worn, my heart is heavy.....I have been mediatating to this song every day because I don't even know what to pray for - but God knows my heart and my hurt</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Yesterday I was doing a new devotional and it really spoke to me. Often as Christians, we pray to get "out" of the hurt and pain....but just maybe we should pray for God to help us "through" the pain instead. </div>

I was reminded by a dear friend, counselor, and mentor that many times in the Bible Jesus wept and so did those who followed him. I often feel guilty and ashamed to grieve because if I have complete faith and trust in God, isn't grieving going against him....NO. I needed that reminder that it's ok to be sad, angry, cry out to God and ask WHY. I have no doubt he is weeping with me as we navigate through this pain and heart ache.</div>

Nothing like updating nearly a month after we have been home from the beach!! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
We spent the 1st week of June in Watercolor Florida with my parents, Aunt CC & E, and Lynn and Karen. How can you not have a blast with that crew! We laughed, ate, swam, ate some more, rode bikes, shopped, ate some more, and most importantly just enjoyed life together with family. My sweet Turner reminded me the other day that families stick together! Indeed real family does. </div>

And, with no "pushing" from me or John, Lydia is potty trained! It has been a piece of cake! One weekend she showed an interest in it, so we went to the store and she picked out all kinds of pretty panties and voila! She is even waking up dry in the mornings! So proud of my sweet girl, she is growing up way to fast!<br />

Turner loves to tell people about Easter. It's amazing how much he understands. Wish I would have recorded it but in a nutshell, he says:</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
"Easter is about Jesus dying on a tree, then coming back alive with human blood. And now Jesus lives in Heaven and in our heart." </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I pray he always knows Jesus is in his heart</div>

<div align="center">
Well this verse took on a whole new meaning the last 2 weeks. </div>
<div align="center">
We got an unexpected call from Deaconess about a sweet baby girl who was born at 34 weeks and in NICU at the local hospital. She was needing a forever family- and since we had never told our agency we were or were not planning to adopt again, they felt like the Lord laid our names on their hearts...so they called to see if we would be open to meeting her birthmother. </div>
<div align="center">
<br /></div>
<div align="center">
A little back story, we had recently joined and began mentoring a new adoption small group at our church. We had begun a Bible Study titled Circle Maker. In a nut shell, it's 21 days of intense and intentional prayer about very specific things in your life. Among a few other things, praying how God would use our family thru adoption was our biggest "thing" we were praying about. Did God want us to adopt again, maybe foster, or what??? John & I had both begun to feel a tugging but not sure what it really meant- so this Bible study and our new friends came at a perfect time. We knew our adoption agency was swamped and in need for more adoptive families but we told them we were praying about it and would touch base in "21 days" Well literally a few days later is when we got "the call" ~ I think we knew what God was telling us :)</div>
<div align="center">
<br /></div>
<div align="center">
So we agreed to meet the birthmom, "B." And just like all of our other birthmoms, we instantly fell in love with her. She is such a sweet and gentle spirit who loves the Lord and wanted to make the best decision for her new child. After meeting us, she had complete peace for the 1st time in months. So she agreed to place sweet baby girl with us. Literally we left the office and went straight to the hospital to pick up "Naomi A. Rose" She was perfect in every single way. Just like a rose, she was delicate and beautiful. </div>
<div align="center">
The next week was really kind of a blur. "B" continued to struggle with her decision and was torn. But we believed with all of our hearts, and still do, that God had a very special plan in this journey and that regardless of what "B" decided we would see the goodness of The Lord.</div>
<div align="center">
The kids fell in love with her FAST!! Because we knew it was a high risk placement we choose to tell them we were only keeping her for a few days and we needed to pray for her and for her birthmom. Turner loved to feed her and Lydia loved to burp her. She was a tiny little bundle of joy weighing less than 6 pounds but was gaining weight very fast as she loved her formula. My work was amazing and again I am so blessed to work with such wonderful people that picked up my slack so I could focus and love on this little angel for as long as we had her. </div>
<div align="center">
<br /></div>
<div align="center">
A week after we picked her up from NICU we got another call that "B" had changed her mind and 2 hours later we were handing her back to her forever mommy. Heartbroken, hurt, discouraged, angry, confused, raw, and overwhelmed BUT prayerful is how I felt that day and the days following. </div>
<div align="center">
A sweet adoption friend, who has faced more set backs this year than anyone else I have ever known, sent me this link -and it has turned my tears into JOY and my discouragement into HOPE </div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oQHJh_111yI">I look to you by Selah</a></div>
<div align="center">
I had been dreading yesterday since it marked a week since we held sweet Naomi. To my surprise it was a really good day. God filled my heart, soul and mind with such peace. All day long dear friends sent me sweet emails, encouraging texts, and heart felt phone calls. I even mustered up the courage to find a rose charm in honor of her to put on my necklace (see the above picture). Then last night John & I had a date night aka cooking class. We had this class planned for months, but I believe God had orchestrated it all along.
<div align="center">
<div align="center">
So now what? That's the million dollar question. We are clinging to the truth that this heart ache is going to make us stronger, kinder, more compassionate, and faithful. While I may never fully understand why we were chosen to experience this painful journey I do believe with all my heart that I serve a mighty God who loves me more than I can ever imagine.
<div align="center">
<div align="center">
"The Lord my God in the midst of me is mighty. He will save, He will rejoice over me with joy, He will rest in His love for me, and He will joy over me with singing"

It's been really special to see Turner developing compassion and understanding for those who are in need. During the holidays we picked several kids to sponsor.....and this year I took Turner shopping with me. He absolutely had a blast picking out toys and clothes for his "friends"! And I was super duper proud of him. On several occasions he told people in the store that he was giving presents to kids who didn't get any and showing them that Jesus loves them too! </div>
<div align="center">
<br /></div>
<div align="center">
Well today we met up with a sweet friend who is fostering a 4 year old. I told Turner the boy was only staying there for a little while and I'm sure he would like to have some toys to play with since his foster moms' kids are older. Turner immediately ran back to his bedroom and started going thru his toys....and he picked some of his favorites to give away...then at the end he pointed to HIS FAVORITE Toy Story backpack and said is the sweetest voice, "Mommy I think Caleb would like this back pack too, we can put all these cool toys in it!" Talk about a tears swelling in my eyes. I've never been more proud of him and his generous heart. I pray he continues to embrace these qualities and is always willing to show others the love of Jesus Christ! </div>

Boy did the wind blow this weekend.....and low and behold our pastor did a sermon about wind today....and oh how it hit home. To keep it simple basically the "wind" is always going to blow in our lives. The wind can be struggles, battles, disappointments and heart aches. And we need to be ready for the wind by building our foundation on rock....yes remember that Bible story! </div>

I too want my children to be ready for the wind.....and build their foundation on Jesus Christ. Love their neighbors, forgive those who hurt them, be generous not only with their money but with their time, and love the Lord with all their sweet hearts! </div>

This Christmas we have chosen to really cut back on gifts for the kids and use that money to bless others. I have been extremely proud of Turner~ he really enjoyed and seemed to understand our desire to buy gifts for children who needed clothes and had no toys. I love his sweet little heart. </div>

Oh sweet baby girl...I can't even find words to describe the blessing you are. You are no doubt an answered prayer and we are honored to be your mommy & daddy! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
You are so full of life! You love just about anything and anyone! No "stranger danger" for you. Just today while at the post office, you gave this sweet little old lady a big hug around her leg. Boy did she light up! You are so tender hearted and get your feelings hurt very easily. You only have to be told NO once. You eat just about everything and will certainly try anything at least once. Your favorite foods include steak, duck, marshmellows, fish, raisins, fruit, broccoli, noodles, rice,soup, grilled cheeses from Sonic, bacon, milk, cupcakes, and french toast. Your favorite words are "I wuv you" which you say about 100 + times a day, thank you, peeze, milk, Nurner, and have a good day! </div>

You are completely and utterly in love with your daddy. You're a daddy's girl no questions asks. Although you prefer momma during the day...once daddy gets home, he is all yours! You insist he put you to bed every night...and daddy doesn't complain one bit!</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Your favorite place to be is outside playing with your brother! You love dolls but will drop a doll any day to play in the dirt with Turner and his dump trucks. You love playing chase with him and taking walks around the neighborhood. You think it is so fun to go "cruisin" in his Jeep. You giggle the entire time! You love going to the zoo with friends and your favorite animal is the brown bears. You love books. Lately your favorite is The Nose book and all the Pete the Cat books. You, much like Turner, love to shake your booty and clap your hands. You love bath time and snuggling with Mercy & Lexus. Your favorite toy is your stroller, you'll go round and round and round the living room pushing your babies. You are still fond of your pacifier and your stuffed dog Missy and you prefer your baby bed over a big girl bed which is fine by this mommy! </div>
