Checkup time

This video titled Blessings has been on 2 blogs that I regularly read this week and I believe that it is for a reason.  It's a great song with a great message that I feel like applies to us and our situation.

Today I went for my yearly checkup at my doctor.  (I realize that's more info than you need...but hold on...) I saw the doctor (Dr. Jacobs) that delivered both my boys.  I LOVE LOVE LOVE him and I LOVE that office full of wonderful nurses and staff.  I was a little unsure how I would feel when I got in one of those rooms that I've been in so many times before when pregnant.  I was really hoping that I wouldn't start to have this yearning to be pregnant again.

When he came in, after we talked for a few minutes he asked if I wanted to have another baby.  I said that I already was and he looked at me curiously.  I explained (as briefly as is possible) that we are adopting a baby from Ethiopia.  After my exam he asked me lots of curious questions about the process and how we made that decision.  I felt very affirmed by him and he was so encouraging.  As I walked out of that office, I felt very secure and comfortable with our decision.  I'm not sure why that was all such a big deal in my mind, but I felt peace from God as I left that we are on the right road following His way.
