Sasha and Mia's Journey: Book Tag!
http://tamaras-corner.blogspot.com/2009/01/book-tag.html
Sasha and Mia's Journey. Sunday, January 25, 2009. Tagged me in a game to see what everyone is reading. I really can't say that I'm actually reading this book as much as I hope to one day when my life gets to a point where I can actually read books other than Dora or Seuss-related works. Perhaps I'll finally get to tackle this book on one of our vacations this year. Sigh . it's worth dreaming about anyway :). 1 Grab the nearest book. 2 Open to page 56. 3 Find the fifth sentence. What do you mean?

The road to Max: September 2009
http://theroadtomax.blogspot.com/2009_09_01_archive.html
Wednesday, September 23, 2009. The happier post I was referring to. We're being submitted for dates on tuesday! Monday, September 21, 2009. Absolutely. In times like these, however, I am calmed by my favorite poem, Desiderata. I have posted it for you as well. I am hopeful that my next post will be a happier one. The one thing in all of this I cannot seem to find justification for is how this could possibly benefit Max. What is he going to take from this experience that can help him to grow? For the worl...

The road to Max: June 2009
http://theroadtomax.blogspot.com/2009_06_01_archive.html
Friday, June 26, 2009. I've been meaning to post this update for the past 72 hours, but I've been recovering from some bad news these past few days. Unfortunately, the one person holding the power which would allow us to adopt Max and bring him home decided to be a no-show for court on Monday. A new court date has been set for July 7th. If this person again refuses to care or comply we will be in for a long wait before Max can come home(Spring/Summer 2010). Tuesday, June 16, 2009. Your prayers are needed.

Monday, April 4, 2011. Let's go catch that sunshine! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,. And sorry I could not travel both. And be one traveler, long I stood. And looked down one as far as I could. To where it bent in the undergrowth;. Then took the other, as just as fair,. And having perhaps the better claim,. Because it was grassy and wanted wear;. Though as for that the passing there. Had worn them really about the same,. And both that morning equally lay. I wish I MAY.

Journey To My Little Russian Princess. Monday, March 9, 2009. We made it safely home late night on March 3rd, and as you can imagine, have been busy ever since trying to adjust to life at home and a new routine. Thank you to all of you for your support and prayers as we traveled back to Michigan from Russia. Once in Atlanta we had to go through passport control, then immigration, and finally customs where we had to get our luggage and recheck it in for our final flight to Detroit. All went smoothly&#...
