Aaron is such a fabulous daddy to our boys. He loves them so much and misses them like crazy when we are away. He would do anything for them, and is constantly thinking of their well being. When he comes home from long trips he always has a gift for them and spends all his time devoted to them. He makes more castles than anyone would like to, and plays the best game of hide and seek!
My love for Aaron has grown tremendously since we started having kids. I love him in a new way. I love him because he loves our boys so much. I love him because he desires to be the best dad in the world.
This week when we first saw Aaron after not having him around for almost 2 weeks (I'm not counting the 15 hours he was home one weekend) the boys went crazy. They only wanted daddy. They wanted to sit by daddy at dinner. They want daddy to hold them. They want their daddy. I LOVE it and Aaron loves it even more.
For the longest time Aaron and I have been on two completely different pages about more children in our family. He has said since we brought Little Boy home that we were done and that our family was complete with our two boys. I have said NO WAY I am NOT complete as a mom and I need more kids! We kinda agreed to disagree and decided not to talk about it anymore. This week Aaron drops a BOMB on me and says that he thinks we need to start the adoption process again. WHAT? I was so happy and have not stopped thinking about it and smiling. So, we are going to hopefully start again sometime within the next year. We are not in a hurry and going to take our time, but I could not be happier. We are going to pray this summer about whether or not we feel as though God wants to lead us down the path to domestic again, or international this time. Who knows!

YEA! Can't wait to hear as you begin the process.
yay! yay! yay! that's so exciting!
That is great! I cannot wait to follow your journey and be a part of it any way that we can. The Nolan's sure love you. Bradly asked today, "When am I going to see my buddy again? You know, that one we went to see the fish with!" Cute! Have a great week!
Maybe we will be in the whole process together...
Jamie- very exciting stuff!!! Another fun journey!
Oh that is wonderful news. I know that you will follow God's desire as you have done in the past. This is exciting and I look forward to walking through it with you again. Good luck!
How exciting!!! Congratulations! We have just began our Home Study paper chase! I am kind of having fun with it. I am sure that will last until there is a document that is not within my control...like my passport. We applied 5/31 and we keep hearing these bad stories about a backlog.
