Blogging Blessings

One of the things that I NEVER thought about when I started blogging, were the friends that I would meet along the way. Friends that would actually become REAL life friends...not just "bloggy friends". :) What a blessing blogging has been to me, and to my family!


I met Tina, in real life, :) almost a year ago at the Orphan's Ticket Home Gala, right before we traveled to China. Yesterday we finally got our girls together and we met for lunch! Tina's sweet girl, Teddi, is such a DOLL!! She is so precious! She is almost a year older that Karleigh Mei and she was quite impressed with her. She has been talking about Teddi ever since! She talks like they've always been buddies. It's so cute!


We had so much fun meeting you Tina and Teddi! Thank you for being a blessing to us!


The pretty girls together...

I completely agree that the adoption community has been one of the greatest surprises and blessings of this process. Beautiful girls indeed.

What a sweet connection. I'm so glad you were able to get the girls together...the photos are so cute! :)

The blogging community has been an unexpected blessing in our journey to Khloe thus far, and I just thank God for using this avenue to bring so many of us together for friendship, support, encouragement and prayer. What a gift it has been!! <><

Blessings and Hugs,

Ahh, sweet pictures! Tina emailed me some of the pictures last night. I wish we could have gotten Karleigh Mei, Teddi and Claire together. Maybe sometime...

Awwwe Jenn, the feelings are mutual. We had such a fun time. And like you, I had no idea what a HUGE blessing awaited me when I began blogging. What a beautiful side benefit of adoption-- to make so many precious friends along the way!

Let's not wait so long to get together the next time!!

Blessings~

Hi Jenn!

I'm popping in to introduce myself. I met your sweet daughter Lexie when she was helping Emily out with her blog when Emily was in China this summer.

You've done a great job with your big girl Lexie and she's a wonderful gal who loves the Lord! What a wonderful testimony of love for Him, her life is!

I am preparing to leave for China in just 3 more sleeps!!

I look forward to following your blog and getting to know you better. Bloggy friends are a precious gift from God!

Praying for your Karleigh Mei as she goes through her surgeries. What a cutie she is!
