Seasons

I just love it when a new season arrives!! It seems I'm always ready for a change when it comes. Right now I am SO ready for the Fall and for cooler weather. But I'm also ready for Fall because it is my absolute favorite of all the seasons! Along with the cool weather it brings breathtaking beauty. I love the fall colors so much that I decorated my house with them! They are such warm and cozy colors. I wanted to surround my everyday life with the colors of the season I love the most. Life has many seasons, too, doesn't it? There are seasons of life that bring the warm, cozy memories and then there are seasons of life that seem cold and hard. They seem to drag on so long that it seems that you'll never see and feel the refreshing feeling of change. The Bible speaks about that. It says there is a time for all things, to laugh, to cry, to mourn, and even a time to dance (Ecc. 3). Brian and I have come out of one of the "colder seasons" of our lives and God has brought us into a new, vibrant one. We are in the process of adopting a little girl from Vietnam. It's a time of excitement, nervousness and anticipation. My sister Jennifer has become an avid blogger and suggested that a blog would be a great way to keep family and friends updated on our progress. So here I go, my first blog! It will be fun to involve friends and family in our journey. I hope everyone will enjoy coming along.
