Sigh

Whew! What a week.
I will admit it - I've been on the verge this week.

First, we were promised an offer on the house that didn't come.
Then, we heard that President Martelly stated that independent adoptions in Haiti will stop. Now, don't get me wrong, joining the Hague Convention will greatly benefit the children of Haiti, and monetarily, the country itself. I'm all for reducing the exploitation of children in the world. I am pro-family, anti-hunger, anti-poverty, desertion and abuse. I'm also all for bringing my boys home in the most efficient, least costly, legal manner possible.

I've also been all about coffee this week, and without the support and love of my coworkers friends, I would not have made it through this work week.

I have been amazed by the caring support and unbelievable generosity of the individuals I am blessed to work alongside. I have cried upon shoulders, been hugged and showered with fabulous items for our fundraising auction.  And that's just the past two days! Beyond my wildest dreams, I could not have imagined the volume or value of items that have been donated to our cause.

There is no doubt in my mind that we are truly blessed and I thank God for the network of people wrapping us in loving support.
