Yesterday

Yesterday was a good day in more ways than one. It was my birthday so Jacob couldn't wait for me to open the two handmade cards that he had made in school. My alarm went off at 6:55 am. I usually like to hit snooze a couple of times but as soon as it went off, I heard, "Mommy want to open your cards?" Not just in a morning voice, but in a morning, I have been waiting and up for a while voice. I begged him to let me hit the snooze button but just couldn't make him wait any longer as he was being so cute. I will keep these forever. Here is what they said:

I just wanted to say that your the best for everything youv done.

so happy birthday mommy!

Love: Jacob

Mom, did you now your the best.

thats why I'm giving you this very speshil card!

Jacob Cauley

Now how cute is that??? I feel so blessed to have him. My God is eternally faithful. I know that He will bless me again with a baby through adoption and I can't wait. In fact, I am tired of waiting but I have to wait on His perfect timing. Maybe He thinks I have my hands full with all of these animals :)

I also had lunch with a friend, Mary Ruth. God has blessed her too. After many years of trying to conceive, she is now 20 weeks pregnant.

Jacob and I picked up Shane at the airport at 6pm and then drove to eat at Red Robin...it was yummy.

The other good thing was seeing Moose and Boo play together. Moose has been very intrigued by Boo and finally decided to interact with her. She was letting Boo attack her tail and then racing her up the stairs. It looks like they might become buddies, which is what we wanted for Moose...another kitty to play with. Now, if we can just get Riley to a good point with the cats, then all will be good. That will take a while, of course. But, that's ok.

Hope everyone has a fun and blessed weekend!
