So... Our CRAZY Life keeps on Keepin on... But...
There isn't a day that goes by where we don't think about the orphans in this world and our Ethiopian Adoption. EVERDAY I think about what it is going to be like after our family has grown... after we have brought home our daughter(s) from Ethiopia!! :) While we wait we are filled with excitement and anticipation! From shopping to conversations in the car, what school they might go to, where they will sleep, what they will eat, 'sister'sitting opportunities, chats before we go to bed, thoughts in our head, and in all of our DAILY prayers...
Here are a few things I've picked up lately... ☺
Went to Anthropologie - looking for a cute shirt and I bought a little lion and zebra for our Sweeties instead! :)
OOOOH I LOVE little Dollies! These Corolle Baby dolls are soooo cute and snuggly! :)
A Barbie and Little Miss and Little Mr. videos!!
Got the whole SILLY series of the Mr. and Miss books. Erik and I picked them up in LONDON - Forever ago! It was a personal mission to find those CRAZY books! ☺ My parents purchased these books for my sis and I when we lived in Austria - WE LOVED THEM!!!, I've read them to Madison and Kinz and NOW I am excited to read them ALL OVER again!! They're just FUN and colorful! ☺

And... Gotta have A Beautiful BOX of Bows!!! ♥ I'm almost sure this isn't going to be enough! ha ha! ☺ It's just a 'temporary' bow fix for now! It will be SO much FUN to put them on their sweet lil heads!
“Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.”
Philippians 4:6-7
“Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life?”
Matthew 6:27
"For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future."
Jerimiah 29:11
You're so RIGHT! Even when we are distraction ourselves and staying busy I think people can sometimes mistake that for me being "alright". In reality, every step I take, I think about how different that step will be with our daughter in our arms next time. Always thinking, "this could be the last time Monkey and I do this without Lil Miss here" is a crazy yet REALLY REALLY exciting thought! Love to see how other people are distracting themselves though, gives me a little inspiration!!!
ReplyDeleteThose little dollies you bought are SO cute! Hoping to head to Anthro in the next couple weeks, depending on how much they are maybe I'll pick one up. So beautiful! And the "Lil Miss Sunshine" video....um, how perfect for my "Lil Miss"??? Must have too =)
Miss you!!! Let's email and plan our next par-tay! =)
Love that "WWWW" While We Wait Wednesday...I am going to have do some of those posts! And I love Corelle baby dolls! I am going to have to get some for Caroline Faith! They are so sweet...and they smell so good! Have you ever noticed that? :)

Yummy! :) ...looking forward to reading some of your WWWW posts! :)
ReplyDeleteHello Galbreath Family, I found your blog when I did a web search just out of curiosity using "Galbreath Fam" because we are also the Galbreath Family - from Salem, VA. Thank you for serving Him and giving Him the glory for your growing family. We will be praying for all the details of the process yet to come and for His presence and guidance! Although we have never met, our prayers go with you...
