I'm still here!

So, I've definitely been slacking a bit lately! Tomorrow marks 3 weeks waiting for our court date. I'm happy to report that we have had an amazing peace about this whole process since receiving our referral. Sure, I have moments where I just want Abram home so badly. For instance, today I was pushing Grayson on the glider and was wishing they were both on it giggling hysterically as I try to tickle them as they go by. But, overall, God has given us comfort in knowing He is in control, and just as He was faithful and brought us our referral, He will give us our court date and someday we will have our littlest boy home.

It really helps that I get to talk about Abram all day long. I try not to constantly obsess over him around friends and acquaintances, but Grayson and I talk about him ALL DAY long. And, I am rarely the one to bring it up. Grayson starts his morning by saying, "Abram sleep in Wall-E bed," or "Abram wear Thomas underwear," or "Abram eat waffles." And, it goes on like this all day long - I'm really not exaggerating. Grayson is already SO in love his baby brother. He is going to be the sweetest big brother!

Time is passing quickly as we are enjoying the summer months. We are officially done with bible study and have no commitments! We've been working in the yard, organizing things in the house, etc. I have this urge to go through every nook and cranny, making sure we are rid of any clutter before we add another person to our house!

We've also been taking weekly walks with our wonderful neighbor, Laura, and her kids. Grayson LOVES it! They are the sweetest kids ever!

I'll leave you with a few pics of Grayson...and, I promise I will try to be better about blogging!
