Tea for two

Today I was fortunate enough to attend two tea parties. Tea & Testimony was wonderful. I loved hearing Kathy Morgan's adoption story. I hope one day we will be able to afford to adopt a baby of our own. When I first had trouble getting pregnant, we looked into adoption but as a newly married couple we couldn't even begin to comprehend the cost. It is so unfortunate that so many little ones are without homes, and so many couples wanting to adopt cannot afford to.
Tara had her baby shower, that same day and it was beautiful. I got to hold little Anya, who has spina bifida. I have prayed many many times for this dear sweet little one, and she is perfect. I was afraid for her family, for her future but everytime I see that sweet little face I am just blown away. She is doing great. She is very alert and smiles a bunch. She always has the most beautiful smile on her face. I thought she would have more problems, maybe just stare off into space and be more like the other special children that I know. Anya is a miracle, a beautiful miracle. She laid her little head on my chest and cuddled up to me and almost made me cry. SHOCKING, right? :) I love that little girl.
I did enjoy the girlfest weekend. :)
