Making new friends!
Thursday I went to lunch with two girls that are also adopting from Ethiopia! ( sorry I don't really want to mention any names yet, we're all kinda keeping things quiet for a little until we get further into it) It was so nice to actually put a face to the name and person that you chat with online and talk to on the phone! It's amazing the connection you feel to stranger almost instantly, and it all comes from getting to share such a awesome experience together....
Girls... thank you both so much for making me feel so comfortable and for all your help! I look forward to getting to know you both so much more, and the most amazing part will be our children growing up together and having each other!

I found this poem while surfing the net...brings tears to my eyes everytime...
"Kisses In The Wind"
I hold you in my heart and touch you in my dreams,
You are here each day with me, at lease that's how it seems.
I know you wonder where we are... what's taking us so long,
But remember child, I love you so and God will keep you strong.
Now go outside and feel the breeze and let it touch your skin...
Because tonight, just as always, I blow you kisses in the wind.
May God hold you in His hand until I can be with you.
I promise you, my darling, I'm doing all that I can do.
Very soon, you'll have a family for real, not just pretend.
But for tonight, just as always, I blow you kisses in the wind.
May God wrap you in His arms and hold you very tight.
And let the angels bring the kisses that I send to you each night.

Our Journey to our child in Ethiopia
Hi!
Our names our Jason & Rachel McCarron. We live in Charlottetown, PEI. We have been married for almost 2 years, but been together for 6 1/2. We have just begun our exciting journey to bring our first child home from Ethiopia! After a few years of trying for a biological child, we had come to a cross road when we looked and each other and thought "what are we doing"? There are so many children in the world that need parents now..not later. I truly believe this was God's plan for us all along, it just took us a while to figure it out! It is such a amazing feeling finally deciding to adopt, and starting the process! I feel like I am pregnant, only we're expecting from Ethiopia, and the gestation period is more like 20 months!!!
We are currently foster parents and are loving it! We have a beautiful 15 yr girl that lives with us and we get along great! She fits into our home like she has always lived there. We have been fostering for about a year now, and have had a lot of great children come and go. What a wonderful feeling knowing your making a difference in a child's life, how big or small it may be.
We are hopefully starting our home study this week....
we'll keep you posted. I can't believe how excited I am to start paperwork!!! LOL! We'll see how long that lasts!
