Our adoption process starting from the very beginning. Thursday, August 30, 2012. Today we toured Yu Gardens and an area called the French Concession (I think- I got confused on this).

Location: Yu Garden and French Concession (I think). Wednesday, August 29, 2012. Gracie is doing really well! I also have to say that Michael has been so wond...

Our adoption process starting from the very beginning. Wednesday, July 18, 2012. One year and getting so close! I am amazed when I think back to one year ago today when God so clearly put our feet on a new path leading to China! You can read about that here : http:/ isaiah43-5.blogspot.com/2011/07/you-want-us-to-do-what.html. Here are a few recent pictures I have received:-). Tuesday, July 17, 2012. Shower for Ella Grace.

Thursday, August 30, 2012. Last post from China! At 7:25 this morning it was silent and everyone was sound asleep. I heard a sweet little voice awaken me saying. "Momma? I sat up and said, "Gracie! Then I swooped that sweet baby up out of her crib and gave her lots and lots of kisses and she giggled! What a way to wake up! We miss you people! Please pray with us that our flights will not be delayed because of the hurricane. In Chicago, if they have a drop of rain, they delay flights! We will be leaving o...

My cup overflows: June 2012

Friday, June 29, 2012. And I'm tasting the sweetness of the here and now. When I played Chess with John Deric yesterday morning I thought to myself as he methodically planned his next move on the board, "These are the days that you will never forget and will always treasure. What a gift. The gift of today. Posted by Heather Thomas. Wednesday, June 27, 2012. We were approved for our I800 immigration app on Friday! So we've moved to the next step. Praise the Lord!

Living Life By Grace: March 2012
http://thekownfamily.blogspot.com/2012_03_01_archive.html
Living Life By Grace. Tuesday, March 27, 2012. 8 sleeps 'til travel and counting! I'm sure it's been said once, twice, or a million times by now, but we have never played in the sprinkler during spring break! Or played in the pool without freezing! Or worn our summer clothes in late february! So alas, our warmest spring break on record. along with a little soccer action! Elliott still won't take pictures. So here is Maxwell, always trying to please. And here is Maxwell trying to get Elliott to appease us.

Our adoption process starting from the very beginning. Thursday, March 1, 2012. We are thrilled to say that we have PA and can officially share pictures of our beautiful little girl, Ella Grace Bailey "Gracie"! Needless to say, I was ecstatic when I got a phone call from our social worker telling me that we could share her picture. I was expecting it to take a couple of weeks, not a couple of days. Maybe this means all the other steps will go quickly;-). Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Are you a Lion?

The Wangsgard Family: BIG Changes
http://thewangsgardfamily.blogspot.com/2012/07/big-changes.html
Jonathan, Julie, Katie, Ellie, and Silas. Tuesday, July 24, 2012. Well, as of last Thursday, it's official. we will soon be residents of Calaveras County, California! Jonathan now has a teaching job in Angels Camp, and we will be living in Copperopolis with my parents until our home is move-in ready. Moving on is not easy, especially for those remaining, but we are grateful for our time in the North State, and look forward to God's continual leading in our lives, for His glory. Katie, age 7. Ellie, age 5.

Wednesday, September 26, 2012. Encouragement for the week ahead. Here is an encouraging excerpt from Ann Voskamp's blog post this week:. No one knows but you do war every single day with the slanderous voices in your head. And you wrestle a bit with the death dark that encroaches around the edges of everything and you’re never the only one: anyone who gets up has to push back the dark. I’m standing there in front of the mirror. That’s what this week needs, that’s all this week needs most:. I have grown t...

So for us, we don't know what the timeline is for our family. But praise God, He has this all "rigged"! In the mean time, we are listing our house on the market(tomorrow)!
