Smile There is a infant car seat......

on sale at Big Lots and I am going to get it. My adoption process is moving along nicely and its about time I came to terms with the fact that i am going to be a momma instead of worrying about things all the time.

Any and all nudges of support will be most welcome!!

Exactly - I say enjoy this time and don't waste time fretting about things. If you were pregnant, you wouldn't really have any control over the end result either so just savor the preparation.

Thumbs up

Thanks guys........ you are the best . I did get it and it looks lovely. I will put it in a closet until its time. It felt so empowering to get it and I am going to remain in prayer and quit waiting for the other shoe to drop. I know I have to remain realistic but at the same time God is in control.

Good for you.
Take control, I say.


Isn't it fun to see it sitting there?!
