YEAH! Wonderful new pics!

Pretty in pink...notice the pink hippo in the corner of the picture...a birthday present from me and Daddy! It cracks me up! It has orange and brick striped legs and a lime green tail!
I love her arms!
I love it! She looks like such a baby here! Sometimes I get sad feeling like she's turning into a toddler but when you compare her to this handsome sweetie, there's no doubt she's my BABY girl! Don't they look like they're dancing? So sweet!
I love this one! I just want to pick her up and give her a kiss.
THANKS NANA!!!!!

New pics of sweet girl!

Sweet girl went to the doctor for her measles vaccination and Nana learned she is 19.10 pds and 29 inches.
Nana has only dogs, but she makes sure IF get's to play with cats to help her get used to her fury sisters, Amethyst, Adair and Aberdeen "Abby." Nana says she likes dogs better! I want to get her a dog but I'd be sneezing and coughing like crazy!

Beth on her soap box

Well, I have never stated my political views on this blog. That's not really the purpose. This blog is dedicated to publicly praising the Lord for my precious daughter and coming to you for prayers in this tumultuous journey. And to share a bit about my family and friends.

But, my dream come true is here today because her brave birth mother, didn't choose abortion. That precious woman chose life and her decision is the reason my daughter will be home very soon! Just look at this sweet girl and imagine her birth mother making a different choice. It takes my breath and nauseates me to even type it.

Friends, we have a decision to make in November, right around the time I hope to bring Isabella Faye home. Below is a compilation of the stance of both presidential candidates on abortion as compiled by the National Right to Life. Please prayerfully consider your choice come election day.


John McCain's stance on abortion
John McCain supports overturning Roe v. Wade. He voted against an amendment that read, “It
is the sense of the Senate that the decision of the Supreme Court in Roe v. Wade was appropriate
and secures an important constitutional right; and such decision should not be overturned.”
John McCain voted in favor of the Partial-Birth Abortion Ban Act. When the Act was upheld by
the Supreme Court on April 18, 2007, Sen. McCain said, “Today’s Supreme Court ruling is a victory for those who cherish the sanctity of life and integrity of the judiciary. The ruling ensures that an unacceptable and unjustifiable practice will not be carried out on our innocent children.”
John McCain voted in favor of the Unborn Victims of Violence Act (“Laci and Conner’s Law”). The bill establishes that when an unborn child is injured or killed during the commission of a
violent federal crime, the assailant may be charged with a second offense on behalf of the
second victim, the unborn child.
John McCain voted in support of a bill to require an abortionist to notify a parent before
performing an abortion on a minor who lives in another state.
John McCain opposes the “Freedom of Choice Act” (FOCA), a bill which would prohibit states
from placing limits on abortion, including the types now permitted by the Supreme Court, such
as parental involvement laws and waiting periods, and which would make partial-birth
abortion legal again.
John McCain voted against an amendment to nullify the “Mexico City Policy.” The Mexico City
Policy cut off U.S. “family planning” funds to private organizations that perform or promote
abortions overseas.
John McCain voted against repealing the law that prohibits performance of elective abortions in
military medical facilities.
At a speech at Wake Forest University, John McCain described the kind of people he would
nominate to the Supreme Court. “I have my own standards of judicial ability, experience,
philosophy, and temperament. And Chief Justice [John] Roberts and Justice Samuel Alito
meet those standards in every respect. They would serve as the model for my own nominees if
that responsibility falls to me.”

Barak Obama's stance on abortion
Barack Obama is a co-sponsor of the “Freedom of Choice Act” (FOCA), a bill that would
nullify virtually all federal and state limitations on abortion, including the types now permitted by the Supreme Court, such as parental notification laws and waiting periods. It would also make
partial-birth abortion legal again.
While in the Illinois State Senate, Barack Obama voted against legislation that prohibited taxpayer dollars from being used to pay for abortion. His campaign has stated that he “does not support” the Hyde Amendment, which prohibits taxpayer funding of abortion through the Medicaid program.
Barack Obama voted to block a bill to require an abortionist to notify a parent before performing an abortion on a minor who lives in another state. Barack Obama voted against an amendment to allow states to provide federally subsidized health care insurance for an unborn child (within the SCHIP program). The amendment would have written explicit language into the SCHIP
statute to guarantee that a covered child “includes, at the option of a State, an unborn
child.” The amendment further defined “unborn child” as “a member of the species homo sapiens, at any stage of development, who is carried in the womb.”
Barack Obama sharply criticized the Supreme Court for its 2007 Gonzales v. Carhart decision
upholding the Partial-Birth Abortion Ban Act. He said, “I strongly disagree with today’s Supreme
Court ruling...I am extremely concerned that this ruling will embolden state legislatures to enact
further measures to restrict a woman’s right to choose, and that the conservative Supreme Court justices will look for other opportunities to erode Roe v. Wade, which is established federal law and a matter of equal rights for women.”
While a member of the Illinois State Senate, Barack Obama opposed the proposed “Born-Alive
Infants Protection Act” (BAIPA). The measure was very similar to the federal BAIPA, which
President Bush signed into law in 2002. Obama opposed the legislation for three straight
legislative sessions and twice spoke against the bill on the Senate floor. He voted against the bill
twice in committee and once on the Senate floor.
Both laws were intended to provide protection for babies who survived abortions equal to protection received by babies who are spontaneously born prematurely.
Since his election to the Senate in 2004, Barack Obama has compiled a 0% voting record on prolife issues scored by the National Right to Life Committee. By contrast, he has a 100% rating
from NARAL Pro-Choice America.

BC applied for!


After a series of ridiculous occurrences, Isabella Faye's birth certificate was finally applied for today!

Please pray with us that this process, which we fear could be very long, will go speedy quick!

We are praying for a miracle!

Yahoo, new pictures!!!




New pictures! Doesn't she look beautiful in orange? Oh, what am I saying? She looks good in anything! Thanks to Nana Janeth for sending these pictures of our darling baby. I just can't say enough how blessed we are to have Nana and her family!

I can't believe sweet girl is walking! It seems like just yesterday I was on my first visit trip trying to teach her to sit up!

I can't imagine going through this process without God and without Nana Janeth! Her commitment to sending pictures and keeping us updated is a gift I can never repay!

Thank Him!

John's co-worker and our friend and neighbor Paige and her hubby have an adorable toddler named Morgan. The other day Paige e-mailed Hubby to share this story about Morgan, telling him this is what we have to look forward to when sweet girl comes home.



This story is so sweet, I had to share it!



From Paige:



Tonight, like most nights, Morgan said the prayer before we ate supper. I couldn't help but share it with you. I ran and got a pen and paper to write it down when she finished because it was so precious.



Thank you for my Mama and Daddy.

Thank you for this day.

Thank you for Aunt Kay.

Thank you for Aunt Shannon.

Thank you for my friends.

Thank you for letting me go to Aunt Kay's to play with my friends.

Thank you for my friends.

Amen.



In her innocence as a two-year-old, all she knows to do is thank Him. How precious. It reminded me that I should thank Him more.



____

What a lesson sweet Morgan teaches us! We so often go to God when we need something but how often do we remember to go to Him in the good times. I'm reminded of the story of the ten lepers that Jesus healed but only one thanked Him.



Luke 17:11-17 The Message

It happened that as he made his way toward Jerusalem, he crossed over the border between Samaria and Galilee. As he entered a village, ten men, all lepers, met him. They kept their distance but raised their voices, calling out, "Jesus, Master, have mercy on us!" Taking a good look at them, he said, "Go, show yourselves to the priests." One of them, when he realized that he was healed, turned around and came back, shouting his gratitude, glorifying God. He kneeled at Jesus' feet, so grateful. He couldn't thank him enough - and he was a Samaritan. Jesus said, "Were not ten healed? Where are the nine? Can none be found to come back and give glory to God except this outsider?" Then he said to him, "Get up. On your way. Your faith has healed and saved you."


Those other nine all cried out to God to heal them but once He did, they had no more use for Him.


I confess that during this process I have prayed and prayed-crying out to God until my voice was hoarse. There were times that Isabella Faye's homecoming was uncertain and I prayed like never before. But, once we would make it past a hurdle, I'd forget to thank God for getting us through.

I commit in the example of sweet Morgan, to do a better job of thanking my Great God and I encourage you to do the same!

Love you guys!

His Strength is Perfect


The last few days I've been feeling very tired-very weak, wondering how I was going to survive the rest of this wait. I always thought that once we got out of PGN and Isabella Faye was legally ours, I'd have no problem-that I'd just peacefully, happily wait! But the truth is, as I posted the other day, I'm mad and I miss her and I'm so tired of being strong.

Fortunately, I don't have to be Strong. As I was praying today, God reminded me of this song, His Strength is Perfect by By CeCe Winans.

I can do all things through Christ who gives me strength
But sometimes I wonder what He can do through me
No great success to show
No glory of my own
Yet in my weakness He is there to let me know

His strength is perfect when our strength is gone
He’ll carry us when we can’t carry on
Raised in His power, the weak becomes strong
His strength is perfect
His strength is perfect

We can only know the power that He holds
When we truly see how deep our weakness goes
His strength in us begins
When ours comes to an end
He hears our humble cry and proves again

His strength is perfect when our strength is gone
He’ll carry us when we can’t carry on
Raised in His power the weak becomes strong
His strength is perfect
His strength is perfect


This last verse is so powerful to me:

We can only know the power that He holds
When we truly see how deep our weakness goes

I am so weak, so human, so frail without Him I'm nothing. And, this process, where so many times I've found myself at rock bottom, I've just learned more and more how Strong He is!

His strength in us begins
When ours comes to an end


My strength is gone. My strength has come to an end. After a year of waiting, I'm tired and weary and I can't take another step. So I will let His strength carry me...no matter how long it takes for Isabella Faye's birth certificate to come, I will let God carry me. I will survive this and grow from this a learn from this because it is in His strength I rest. I will hope in the Lord and He will renew my strength.

But those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint. Isa 40:31 NIV

Steps...

Well, it happened...sweet girl started walking, unassisted yesterday! My cute chubby newborn is growing up into a beautiful charming baby! Look at her smile! She knows she's doing a good thing! Nana says she loves it when they congratulate her on this new trick! Oh how I long for the day when she walks into my arms!

This just in! New pics of sweet girl!

Nana Janeth has an amazing way of knowing when I'm down! She always sends pics at just the right time! Oh how I love this baby! I miss her more than words can describe. Thank God for these pictures and updates we receive from her wonderful foster family. Thank you from the bottom of my heart, Nana!

Favorite Foto Friday

This week's FFF theme is "Friends with stuffing"


This was easy becuase Isabella Faye loves stuffed animals!


Missing sweet girl

I am missing Isabella Faye something terrible today. Our birth certificate, which we expect an 8 week wait for, hasn't been applied for yet. I'm so mad! Those of you who know me, know I don't get mad...I hate the way it makes me feel...but I'm furious! I know it doesn't do any good...but its hard not to be!

Please pray for my heart today and pray that our birth certificate is applied for and comes out miracle fast!

Prayer Request for Lauren

I want to ask for special prayer tonight for my friend Jenna and her family. They are in the process of adopting Lauren. They have had an extremely difficult process. Please remember them as you pray. Jenna is a sweet spirited lady with an amazing family. She has been a comfort to me often during my process and I know you will join me in praying for your daughter Lauren to be able to come home soon!

Love you guys!

One year ago today...

One year ago today, Hubby and I chose to accept the referral of Silvia Maria Sanchez. She was a newborn baby girl, born on August 14. She had such chubby cheeks that I could just imagine kissing! Silvia Maria, now our Isabella Faye, was lovingly given up for adoption by her birth mother, Silvia and God put everything in motion for us to choose her.
As I was on my visit trip I felt utter amazement. On this trip, we were out of PGN, our precious girl-OURS. I cried and prayed each time I rocked her to sleep-in awe that God has given me the awesome, glorious task of raising her to know and love Him. I just kept thinking that finally the law had caught up with my heart! She has been mine since I was a child-imagining my daughter someday. She has been mine since I was 6 and knew that I would adopt. She has been mine since we were both mere thoughts in our Creator's mind. This PGN approval is just confirmation of what my already knew all along!
Amazing what a year it has been since we chose her. I've had the opportunity to travel to the beautiful country of her birth 3 times. I have met and made friends that will last a lifetime. They have become my family! I have had the honor of meeting and thanking her perfect foster family who love her so much. Hubby and I have grown closer than ever. I have laid on my kitchen floor and screamed and pounded the floor with my fists. I have gotten in my car to drive and scream and pray. I have eaten everything in sight...I've puked my guts out...twice...I've laughed and cried and found out who my true friends are. I have worked and saved money till I never wanted to work again! I have decorated a room, I have shopped and shopped and shopped! I have talked for endless hours about this precious baby! I have blogged and prayed and worried and trusted. I have grown and matured and gained perspective...


2 Corinthians 12:1-10
I must go on boasting. Although there is nothing to be gained, I will go on to visions and revelations from the Lord. I know a man in Christ who fourteen years ago was caught up to the third heaven. Whether it was in the body or out of the body I do not know--God knows. And I know that this man--whether in the body or apart from the body I do not know, but God knows-- was caught up to paradise. He heard inexpressible things, things that man is not permitted to tell. I will boast about a man like that, but I will not boast about myself, except about my weaknesses. Even if I should choose to boast, I would not be a fool, because I would be speaking the truth. But I refrain, so no one will think more of me than is warranted by what I do or say. To keep me from becoming conceited because of these surpassingly great revelations, there was given me a thorn in my flesh, a messenger of Satan, to torment me. Three times I pleaded with the Lord to take it away from me. But he said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ's power may rest on me. That is why, for Christ's sake, I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties. For when I am weak, then I am strong.
Thank you Lord for one year ago today. Thank you for our daughter, our dream come true, our reward. Thank you for choosing her for us, before the foundation of the world. Thank you for trusting us-believing in us enough to let us raise her. Your grace is so sufficient!


Lauren is out!

Lauren F. is OUT! She is the daughter of my friend Lenita who's process began in Feb. of 07. We bonded as wounded warriors in adoptions taking too long. When we got out of PGN, I thought with sadness of Lenita and her family. I was so elated today to hear the good news that little Lauren is OUT of PGN!

My new blog header and sweet Giovanni

Notice the beautiful new blog header? That's all due to my dear friend and prayer partner Amy. Amy and her husband and their bio kids adopted their adorable and hilarious daughter and sister Samantha from Guatemala and are in the process of adopting sweet Giovanni, who just turned 2. Please pray for Giovanni's case to come out of PGN so he can come home to his wonderful family!

My little stinker!

Look at that face! Little stinker has taken to pulling out her hair bows...but who could get mad at a face like that? This little girl is gonna have us wrapped around her finger! Oh the love I have for her! I just look at a picture and my heart feels like it could burst with joy! When I go see her I'm wild with excitement for weeks before I leave. On the day of-of my! I'm a nut! Last Saturday, while waiting for Nana Janeth and Papa Freddie to drop her off, I sat on the stoop of the bed and breakfast and giggled!

Saturday, August 16, 2008

Oh my this PRECIOUS picture!

Has there every been a cuter picture of sweet girl!?!?!?!

I love that Nana Janeth! She is so wonderful to send us pictures. I just love her so much! John is always saying "That Nana is something else!" We are so blessed!

Happy weekend!

Love you guys,

Beth

A picture is worth a thousand words!

Your third tidbit of sweet girl from my visit trip...


You may not be able to tell it by this picture but sweet girl is standing up.


Now, able to stand so well on her own, one would think she could walk...and she can, along the wall, holding onto furniture, etc. She can zoom around holding on to things.
But, when there's nothing to hold onto...
Picture this:
She gets up on her knees in front of me. I'm sitting on the floor, my leg stretched out in front of me. She places her hands on my leg and pushes herself to a standing position. There's one problem though, her legs are too far apart! So, she slings up her arms, palms outward like a field commander at the biggest band competition of the year and tries to keep her balance. She wobbles but quickly steadies herself. Then she looks down from leg to leg as though surmising her problem. She sighs. At this point, I reach out to take her hand to help her. She pushes my hand away, then slaps it-and yells at me. Something vaguely familiar...did I hear the boys in the back of Spanish 100 class snickering and whispering that...did she just cuss me in Spanish? Without my help, she makes an exaggerated move to bring one leg in. There's quite a clomp but she manages and then proceeds to bring in the other leg. At this point she's ready to take a step. She looks down, again surmising the situation. Mmmmmm she mutters. And-the step...like a Rockette in the Macy's Thanksgiving Day parade...and the fall...headlong into my now shaking because I'm laughing so hard-arms. A few kisses and giggles later she decides sitting my lap will work just fine. So for the next hour...that's exactly what we do!
Oh how I love this girl!

FFF-Back to school


This week's Favorite Foto Friday theme is Back to School. Sweet girl isn't in school yet, of coarse, so I thought I'd post a picture of her cousins-who went back this week. This is "baseball's" first year and he is loving it...although his Mommy and I are a little sad to see this sweetie growing up!

To my sweet girl...


My precious girl,

I love you more than I can ever describe. I am awed that God loves me so much to entrust your care to me! What an honor to be your Mommy! Your Daddy and I talk about you every day! He asks me all about what you do and what your like. I tell him every memory of every visit trip. We watch video of you over and over again. You are our dream come true. You're our reward for a life of trusting God and proclaiming Him!
I never knew love like this-so deep, so pure. I would give my life for you. I will always love you, always be here for you.

Happy, happy birthday my sweet, sweet girl. I love you!

Mommy


Happy Birthday PARTY!

Look at that face! Notice the t-shirt! I left that for her and sweet Nana made sure she wore it today!
Checking out her radio!
Talking to me on the phone. She was hysterical! Every time I said something she would jabber back at me! I'd talk and she'd jabber right back like she knew exactly what I was saying! It was so perfect! I laughed and laughed! This went on for three or four minutes! What a precious baby!


Wearing one shoe that I took for her birthday. She doesn't like to keep shoes and socks on!
Sweet girl sitting with her radio and penguin. Nana says she love to dance with her radio.
What a wonderful spread! Nana used the table cloth, plates, napkins and cups I sent and got this adorable Tiger cake! Notice the purple 1 candle!
Sweet girl digging in!

I don't know why God didn't intervene and heal my stomach so I could stay in Guatemala this week to be there for IF's b-day. But I trust Him. I know He sees the big picture. I also know that He gave us this foster family who sent over 30 pictures of our beautiful daughter to commemorate this day.
And my "conversation" with my sweet girl! Oh what a miracle! Hearing her precious little voice-God's gift to me!
I came home from Guatemala with a heavy heart. I spent many moments in tears-wracked with guilt and sorrow. But my sweet husband, and my Great God and some dear friends helped me understand that I did what was best for IF by realizing I was too sick to care for her and calling Nana. But still, I was in deep sorrow, so sad I was missing her birthday-but then this phone call and these pictures! God is so good and He loves me so very much!

Your second tidbit of sweet girl from my visit trip...

See my block? I'm about to wiz it at Mommy's head! I LOVE to throw toys at Mommy!



Happy 1st Birthday!

Happy, Happy Birthday sweet girl!

Today is Isabella Faye's birthday. She will be one. Her foster family will be celebrating her birthday this afternoon and will send pictures when the celebration is over.

I also plan to call and "talk" to Isabella Faye and wish her a happy birthday. With any luck she'll "talk" back but usually when she had the phone to her ear she just listens!

I let her have some of her presents early when I was visiting but the big ones she will get today. I can't wait to see pictures of her playing with them. I had so much fun shopping for her!

John and I will also be celebrating with a birthday cake in her honor at home tonight. And, when she gets home we are going to have a huge late birthday/welcome home celebration.

Stay tuned this evening for birthday pictures.

Please pray for us today also, as we are not with her on her b-day. As you know, I had to cut my visit short due to sickness and Hubby couldn't go because of the start of school. We miss her so and hate to miss this special day. But, sweet Nana Janeth reminded me that we will have a lifetime of celebrations with our sweet girl.

I'm so thankful for Nana and her crew of Isabella Faye fans!

Pray also for friends Amy and Chris and their daughter Mya. She turns one today as well. Unfortunately, due to some ridiculous setbacks and hold-ups, they are much behind where they should be in the process. My heart breaks for them today and I ask for your prayers for them today and that the rest of their process to bringing Mya home is swift!

Love you guys,

Beth

Your first tidbit of sweet girl from my visit trip!

Feel like my insides are gonna make a guest appearance on the keyboard so I'll have to post more later!

Love you guys,

Beth

(Be sure to pause the player at the bottom of the page so you can hear her!)

Catching up

I have much to catch up on! Let's start with last Wednesday...

I was pretty sick. I had canceled a morning babysitting job but had kept my afternoon one, thinking I would feel better. I was rocking the little baby and trying to dose while he slept. Well, out of my half-asleep stooper I heard the phone ring. I picked it up to answer it and right as I pushed "talk" I saw the name on the caller ID "Celebrate Children." Oh my gosh! It was our adoption agency! I tried to make small talk with our director but my voice was unsteady and would hardly come out! My mind was reeling and I couldn't think! I look back and laugh becuase I must have sounded so crazy! But finally, the news I'd been waiting for-our case had been approved by the PGN! PGN is the government agency in Guat. in charge of approving adoptions. Praise the Lord! This is the news we've been waiting for! Now we just wait for the new birth certificate with us listed as her parents and our last name and the 2nd DNA test (her mouth will be swabbed, they don't have to draw blood.) Then we'll get an appointment at the US Embassy with about a week's notice-book our flight, pack our bags and off to get our sweet girl and BRING HER HOME! All told this could take from 5-12 weeks.

Now on to Saturday. I left bright and early on Saturday morning to go visit my sweet girl for her birthday. She arrived that afternoon all smiles and laughter. We played and played and played some more! On Sunday we got up and went out and about in Antigua. She loved being outdoors and all the sights, sounds and smells of this beautiful land. We ate and explored and had a wonderful time! About 8 that night I threw up and it went downhill from there. I threw up for most of the night and by the time by beautiful baby woke up the next morning I was weak, disoriented and tired. I knew I couldn't give her the care she needed and being by myself, there was no one to call to help while I rested and got better. So, I had to call her foster mom to come back and get her. We had a wonderful visit with our foster mom and her friends. My sweet girl gave me the gift of a wonderful goodbye which I'll share more about when I'm feeling better.

Now I'm home and recovering from dehydration. But, I'm still quite tired and this has worn me out.

I'll post the pictures I've got when I get my camera cord to work!

FFF

Today's Favorite Foto Friday theme is crazy hair! If doesn't really have enough hair yet for it to be crazy but one thing about her hair that sure does make me giggle is her bows. I took several down on my last visit and she wore one everyday. Nana Janeth puts them in often too! Oh they just crack me up! The other day I found a couple great stores online to buy bows

alexisbowtique.com (bows for $1) and mybowstore.com (bows 2 for 1 with one only $2.00) and Grandma has been trying her hand at making bows. Needless to say I'll have plenty to take on my next visit!


Here's a couple pics of sweet girl in some of her bows.



To get in on the FFF fun, check out Sarah's blog kissthefrog4me@blogspot.com.
