I haven't felt like writing much, Instagram is definitely a lot more easy to just post tidbits of things that happen in my day to day. I haven't had to think of the next post or worry about keeping people interested in checking in. Which good grief that isn't what I set out to do with this journal anyways. I just needed time to heal, time to spend with my family and just be. Not being able to bring Sergey home was the shock of all shocks for our family. Even though we knew of the political problems we were all facing it still didn't seem like it would come to pass. We had overcome so much during those two years it felt like it was just one more thing we were going to have to face and triumphantly overcome, with God's help of course. But it didn't end the way we thought and it was devastating to our family. It has taken me a while to fully take it all in, talking with God a lot has helped me be able to fully trust Sergey's future to Him. He was never mine to begin with. I think that is even harder to grasp, never in all of this did I have one bit of control over the outcome. I could not will him to be my son, although he will forever be my son in my heart, we did everything we could and then some. There's no denying how hard we tried.<div>

He just turned five on August 18th ( hasn't he gotten so big?) and I have no idea what the future holds for him. And honestly I can't let myself go there because that is a deep dark pit that I won't be able to dig myself out of. I am very aware of how weak I can be as those waves of doubt flood over me, and in those moments I have to literally tell myself to stop and take hold of those thoughts and pray, "I trust you Lord". When I see pictures of children three months after being institutionalized and they are barely unrecognizable, I feel my courage waiver and can only whisper a faint "I still trust". I take it day by day.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Our family has had time to grieve and we are moving forward but not forgetting. We all still talk about Sergey, or Rowan as he was to be named after he was adopted. Mostly we pray, we pray for a family to adopt him. Adoption is not over for us, it has a special place in our hearts and there is such a great need for children to find families but we are waiting on God's timing. Thank you to all of you that have prayed for us, donated of your time, gifts and finances and have supported us the whole way. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Even though I don't understand why, I can't deny that through it all God was there and that every prayer was answered. Looking back I can see Him in every aspect as He provided every penny we needed, every document that was obtained, the softened heart and favorable opinion of the judge, beautiful memories made with our sweet boy, and safety as we traveled to another country while 8 months pregnant. He was there for it all, so even though the outcome didn't happen as we would have liked there is no denying that God was in all of it, so there in lies my trust. It was not all for nothing, there is a reason that I don't see or know at the moment and maybe someday I will get that "aha"moment and everything will make sense and I will know why and maybe I won't know until I get to Heaven but it comforts me to be able to look back and remember what we've come through and how He helped us through it all.</div>

Tatum wanted to make her cake so she asked what Sadie wanted. Sadie said "I want a heart shaped cake with yellow cake inside and chocolate frosting, with flowers and sprinkles and a picture of me on it". I think Tatum pulled it off pretty well! And Sadie was so excited and said she loved it:) Tatum felt pretty proud about that...melted my heart.<br />

One of our chickens turned out to be a rooster, Ruby was now Rubio, and we cannot have a rooster where we live. So when he started crowing last week at five in the morning I started to get ulcers thinking I was going to have an angry mob of neighbors at my door. I tried to give him away but nobody wanted him. Finally yesterday was the last straw after he crowed over and over every few minutes. I decided I was going to put on my big girl pants and attempt to end this rooster's life, even though I was so sad because I raised him from a baby and have never killed anything bigger than a spider. So I went to YouTube, cause that's where you go if you want to learn anything right? I cried the whole time! I couldn't do it. I finally remembered a lady that I knew had a farm and called her up and she came right away! Thank you Lord! I felt so relieved, he now has a good home where he can crow to his heart's content and I am very happy with my five hens and lack of ulcers:)<br />

To be fair this last Instagram is my husband's but if he hadn't of taken it I would have:) This was our day yesterday dealing with the heartache of the finalization of our adoption. Russia will not budge on the ban and we found out that we are no longer matched to Sergey or Rowan as we had hoped to call him. This was Madi's heart poured into a letter to Russia:( I am working on a post but it's emotional and I have to keep coming back to it. This was just such a perfect picture of yesterday and our hearts cry, I had to share.</div>

We're doing okay in spite of all the ups and downs and we're still holding onto hope that this will all work it self out. My devotion this morning was again just what I needed to read:)<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
A Bountiful Blending</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Mrs. Charles E. Cowman</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
"And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God."</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Romans 8:28</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
How wide is the assertion of the Apostle Paul! He does not say, "We know that some things", or "most things" but "all things." From the minutest to the most momentous; from the humblest even in daily providence to the great crisis-hours in grace.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And all things "work"- they are working; not all things have worked, or shall work; but it is a present operation. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
At this very moment, when some voice may be saying, "Thy judgments are a great deep," the angels above, who are watching the development of the great plan, are with folded wings exclaiming, "The Lord is righteous in all His ways, and holy in all His works" (Psalm 145:17). </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And then all things "work together." It is a beautiful blending. Many different colors, in themselves raw and unsightly, are required in order to weave the harmonious pattern.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Many separate wheels and joints are required to make the piece of machinery. Take a thread separately, or a note separately, or a wheel or a tooth of a wheel separately, and there may be neither use nor beauty discernible.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
But complete the web, combine the notes, put together the separate parts of the steel and iron, and you see how perfect and symmetrical is the result. Here is the lesson for faith: "What I do thou knowest not now, but thou shalt know hereafter" (Macduff)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Sigh, I'm so glad God's got this and I don't have to worry about it.<br />
<br />
We are really looking forward to seeing our family in AZ in just a few short weeks! I am working on getting creative with snacks and activities for the drive down, going to be doing some research on Pinterest today for some fun ideas;)</div>

I LOVE chocolate chip cookies, correction I LOVE chocolate chip cookie dough and I'm a little selfish when it comes to sharing it with my kids. Yada yada salmonella... I know, I know. It was about 7 or 8 years ago when I was on the hunt for a really good cookie recipe that was soft and chewy. I found this recipe <a href="http://www.heidiswapp.com/blog/">here</a> long ago, I tried to find it in the archives but couldn't. But this is where I got it and wanted to give the proper cred. Thanks Heidi!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<u><br /></u></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
*Note~ the measurements are doubled because I like to have a lot of cookies, so if you don't want that many just half everything. But believe me you won't want to:)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<u>Ingredients</u>:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
*2 C. brown sugar</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
*1 C. Granulated Sugar</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
*2 C. (2 sticks) Butter flavored Crisco sticks</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
*4 eggs</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
*2 tsp. vanilla (overkill a little)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
*4 C. flour</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
*2 tsp. salt</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
*2 tsp. baking soda</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
*1 bag (12 oz.) semi-sweet chocolate chips</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
*1 bag (12 oz.) milk chocolate chocolate chips</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
* bag of chopped walnuts (optional)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I usually get about 75 cookies out of this batch.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Combine in mixer all sugars and Crisco sticks and mix until fluffy. Next, add the eggs and vanilla and mix until really fluffy (about 2 minutes). Then add flour, salt and baking soda and mix until combined. Last, mix in the chocolate chips and nuts. Scoop about 2in. balls on to baking sheet.

Cookies will seem a little doughy when you pull them out of the oven, I let them sit for about another minute or two to cook on the baking sheet and then scoop them on to a plate or cooling rack. They will be a perfect combination of warm, soft, melty, gooey and chewy. <br />

<br />
We're still alive and kicking, (wow I really need to update my header) we've been taking some time to just "be". At the end of December we found out that Russia had banned all American adoptions. I think I was in a fog for the next couple weeks. Every day there was new information, and each hour could change from good to bad and then back to good again. It's been lots of ups and downs, but we are still holding on to a small ray of hope that might allow us to continue. Hoping to hear something soon.<br />
<br />
(I just realized that we hit two years on February 23rd that we've been trying to get Sergey home...crazy!)<br />
<br />
So in the meantime what does one do while waiting to hear the outcome of their adoption? Well most importantly you pray of course:) But the rest of the time you eat EVERY piece of chocolate in a five mile radius, drink at least three cups of coffee a day, repaint your kitchen (yes again) and purge your house of anything you have not used in a year. The mess in my office looked like an episode from Hoarders!! I've been to Goodwill twice this week to donate a van load of stuff and I am deep cleaning and organizing everything.<br />
<br />
I'm finally hanging some things on the walls, it's only taken me six years to do it! You can see the the new paint color, it's a lot darker. It's called Schoolhouse Slate by Martha Stewart. It's a greenish, bluish, charcoal color.<br />

I worked on organizing my cabinet in the living room this past weekend and used things that I have bought<br />
and loved but were piled under stuff in the office. It makes me smile that I can see it all now. A little happiness in this time of uncertainty. Hey I'll take all the joy I can get and probably a little more chocolate too.<br />

So anywhoooo we're doing good in spite of it all. We appreciate all of you that continue to pray for us and ask us how things are going.

Update: We were not able to make our November 20th deadline for our paperwork. Our social worker has been dealing with health issues so we asked the judge for an extension. She gave us until the end of December to get everything in. We are currently waiting on one document, why does it always seem we are waiting on one document, from our social worker and will be able to mail it all out once we receive it.<br />
<br />
I'm sure everyone has been busy, busy with getting ready for the holidays. It's no different here, since the day after Thanksgiving we have been working on many projects. Ash put up a plank wall for me in the living room which I am in love with! Can you be in love with a wall? Definitely! We just have a spot to caulk in the corner and it's done! We used leftover wood we had from our kitchen project, gotta love a free project:) I took a look at all the pinterest pics I was pinning and all the rooms that I liked were white, so I painted the entire living room white and it feels so much better and bigger in there.<br />

As we hit yet another hurdle with documents I immediately go into stress mode...my faith is so weak. I feel weary of this paperwork mountain that constantly looms before me never ending. Frustrated with others, "why can't they just understand that we need this document right now?", "that a child is waiting for us to come and get him!". These are just a few thoughts that go through my mind and to be honest these are the nicer ones. We are so close and every time we get to almost being finished something else happens to throw it all off. I throw out a feeble and weary prayer to the King of Kings, not even giving Him the respect to come humbly before His courts to offer thanksgiving for all that He has blessed us with. Instead I question His every move, not even putting into consideration that He was the one who breathed us into creation and that He already knows every detail of what is going on. To Him it is already past tense.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
As I wake up to an early morning phone call from a courier in CA telling me that our documents were rejected because the signature didn't match their records I immediately feel the anxiety overwhelm me. The questioning starts and I reduce my God to a disobedient employee. I take the kids to school all the while trying to figure out how to fix this mess, because of course I'm the only one who can fix this mess...right? Come home to sit down and do my devotion, to give God His 15 minutes of my day, but no more than that because I've got stuff to do. I open my daily devotion and precede to read...</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
PRAY AND BELIEVE</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Mrs. Charles E. Cowman</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
"'When ye pray, believe.'"</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
When there is a matter that requires definite prayer, pray till you believe God, until with unfeigned lips you can thank Him for the answer. If the answer still tarries outwardly, do not pray for it in such a way that is evident that you are not definitely believing for it. Such a prayer, in place of being a help, will be a hindrance; and when you are finished praying, you will find that your faith has weakened or has entirely gone. Prayers that pray us out of faith deny both God's promise in His word and also His whisper "Yes," that He gave us in our hearts. Such prayers are but the expression of the unrest of one's heart, and unrest implies unbelief in reference to the answer to prayer. This prayer that prays ourselves out of faith frequently arises from centering our thoughts on the difficulty rather than on God's promise.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
You will never learn faith in comfortable surroundings. God gives us the promises in a quiet hour; God seals our covenants with great and gracious words, then He steps back and waits to see how much we believe; then He lets the tempter come, and the test seems to contradict all that He has spoken. It is then that faith wins its crown. That is the time to look up through the storm, and among the trembling, frightened seamen cry, "I believe God that it shall be even as it was told me.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

I reread this passage two more times and cringed each time. And at the same time felt so loved at His gentle correction that seriously cut me to the core. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
So I am praying that I will not let all that contradicts the "Yes" He spoke to my heart almost two years ago rule my every thought and emotion and question my Lord's abilities. I want my faith to win it's crown.</div>

This year we had a cheerleader, Super girl, The Nana, Princess, Scarecrow, Super baby, Tony Stark and Bat girl.<br />

I have been really busy getting the last documents needed to send to Russia. We were told we needed everything in by the 20th so we are in a bit of a rush. I only need a few more documents and then I'm done! After almost two years of paperwork I will be so happy to be done! After everything is submitted we should have travel dates very soon after. Please if you would keep us in your prayers:) And please keep the <a href="http://room4love.blogspot.com/">Kelley</a> family in your prayers as well, they left early this morning for their first trip to meet Isaac! So happy and excited for them!Daniellehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13172899943476953848noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8469488186283204173.post-7044191801205304622012-10-22T14:21:00.000-07:002012-10-22T14:21:27.268-07:002 Months...a few days late<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I've been keeping busy doing paperwork for court, we were told that we had to submit our paperwork no later than November 20th. So I have been a busy bee taking care of that, snuggling with Radley who is becoming quite the chunk and loving on my home a little bit. Doing fun little projects here and there. Also working on Christmas presents and decorations, my goal is to have a handmade/thrifted Christmas this year and it has been a lot of fun! Pictures to come:) I love the chance to be creative, especially when it comes to my home. I feel I have wasted so much time waiting to see if we were moving back to AZ or moving houses period or worrying about resale. This is our home and I want it to feel that way, God will work out the rest. I made this little instagram frame from a thrifted frame from Goodwill I painted white, red and white baker's twine hot glued to the back, mini clothespins and instagram photos my husband took. I love it!<br />

I have been working on my unfinished projects that I keep saying I will show you. Here is one of those projects, I started this chevron quilt a few months ago. I would have finished it before he was born but I couldn't find a backing material that I liked. Finally a few weeks ago I found this cute whale material and thought it was sweet, plus the colors were just what I wanted. This was my very first quilt, there are tons of imperfections but I still love the way it turned out:) I used this pattern <a href="http://www.cluckclucksewpatterns.com/2011/01/ziggy-baby.html">here</a>.<br />

We celebrated Avery's 8th birthday on Friday. I have also been working on our adoption paperwork for court. If I am being realistic I don't think we will be taking our second trip until the beginning of the new year. We just had to have our homestudy updated because it was going to expire, so we had our social worker over last Thursday to get that done. We are waiting on our FBI background checks because those expired as well. We also found out last week that Russia is now requiring 80 hours more of adoption education, I am trying to figure out where we are going to find the time to figure that all out. I just don't see us getting that all done before December, which for that whole month Russia pretty much shuts down so I don't want to get stuck over there during the holidays. We are getting very close to hitting the two year mark of our adoption process, what a journey it has all been.Daniellehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13172899943476953848noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8469488186283204173.post-78382779744835852232012-08-27T01:22:00.000-07:002012-08-27T01:26:46.909-07:00Reflection<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I'm sitting here late in to the night nursing the sweetest baby boy and recapping the days events. My birthday has officially come and gone again, already past midnight I'm thinking how quickly time passes. And it makes me snuggle Radley a little closer. I want to soak it all up, memorize everything about this moment. His sweet breath, his little grunts and squeals, and his soft baby cheeks that are getting chubbier by the day. Already he is ten days old, it just goes so fast. I told my husband the other day that in two years we will have a teenager, wasn't it just yesterday that Prestin was in my arms and now he is almost up to my chin. I wish I could make time stop, or to at least slow down.</div>

I bought this<a href="http://www.amazon.com/One-Thousand-Gifts-Fully-Right/dp/0310321913/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1346055959&sr=8-1&keywords=1000+gifts"> book</a> a few weeks ago, and I am probably one of the last people to have read it. But that's okay it has come into my life at the perfect time. She writes like a poet, a modern day C.S. Lewis if you will, and the words seem to come so effortlessly for her. She talks about slowing down and seeing all the Lord has to offer, all the gifts He bestows on us daily. And in those moments of seeing His grace having thanksgiving in our hearts. She started acknowledging all these gifts by writing each and every gift, no matter how small, into a journal. And that is what I have started to do as well. I can't stop time, but I can at least savor in the moments and reflect back as I read over them and truly see how much the Lord does bless us with on a daily basis. How much He loves us and wants so much for us, if only we would take the time to slow down and pay attention.</div>

I don't want to miss a thing! I don't want my life to be a blur, I don't want to get so wrapped up in the piles of dishes and mountains of laundry that I miss out on the little lives that are right in front of me now. So this is where I'm starting, to be more thankful and more joy filled. I'm excited to have my eyes wide opened!<br />

We feel truly blessed that he is healthy but also because our oldest son Prestin was given a very special gift this day as well. My husband said it best, " How do I know we serve a God who loves...In ways we cannot fathom? Our son has prayed for over five years for a baby brother...two baby sisters later, five total, He answers. Though He has heard every word, every whisper, He waits...But He does not just listen and answer. No He does what we cannot plan for and gives Prestin a living, breathing "I love you my child, I have heard your every prayer" and does so on his 11th birthday.<br />
