So, in an attempt to get my mind off of things I joined a scrap booking forum and found myself to be much more knowledgeable than I had originally thought. Which seems to be the story of my life. I never give myself enough credit for what I can actually do!
So this last week, I found myself on my community suggesting Cricut cartridges to people who needed specific fonts and had asked for help!! I had an answer AND was able to give suggestions because, while I'm not an expert (yet) in all things Cricut I love my machine and use it all the time!
Here's where my worlds collide...not by accident I'm sure but by the hand of God!!
This week on 10/20 we went to an adoption fair. At first we were not going to attend because I had mixed feelings about the event. People like Joseph and me go to these types of events to meet adoptable kids. And kids who are able to be adopted attend to scope out parents.
We met these two sisters who melted our hearts and took us by surprise! Our home study is for a single girl, under the age of five. These girls are thirteen and nine!! WAY older than we thought we would consider.....but as you know, sometimes what we have planned and what God has planned aren't always the same!!
So, with my new found hobby in hand I set out to put together a mini scrap book that can sent to our prospective child/ren in the event that we are placed.....can you guess who I asked for help in trying to decided what I should have in this scrap book? That's right!! My new on-line community, even learned that this mini scrap book can be turned into what is called a "Life Book" for our adopted child/ren when we are finally able to adopt!
