FALL FESTIVAL
Day Eight


As I mentioned a few weeks ago, the primary reason for this festival is to lift the spirits of the many waiting families who follow this website.  I want to offer hope and
encouragement, believing with all my heart that we can make it if we do it together! 
Below you'll meet a few waiting myadoptionwebsite families and friends . . .
enjoy the darling photos of the waiting brothers and sisters and two yummy recipes!

A friend once told me when I was lamenting about waiting a very long time for something, "Waiting for something wonderful is so much better than waiting for nothing . . . time passes regardless, so you might as well
spend it waiting for that amazing moment!"
