The Couch.

Adventure.

We've had our fair share of it.

And just when you get used to Trusting the No, God hands you a Yes.

Sometime in May, our couch will be a bit fuller.

A friend's relative called us this week offering us the highest honor I can think of and we accepted.

The newest baby boy Mohr will arrive sometime in the end of April via a private/independent adoption. And now, more than ever, I can declare that God is crazy and insanely creative.

By the way, that means our trimesters are about a month long, if we're lucky.

Which is why this post will stay short. I...uh...have a few things to do.

Giddy up.

    AAAHHHH!!!! CONGRATULATIONS!!!! You guys continue to be in my prayers - a healthy delivery, a peaceful adjustment for your whole family (and the birth family), and I'll throw in a baby that sleeps (but you know - that's not a given)... what a lucky baby! What a blessing! What a brave birth mom! Love you!!

    Katie, you don't know me, but I've been blog-stalking you for a while. I really love your couch analogy and I'm stoked you're filling it up! A friend of mine is struggling with infertility right now and I just wanted to thank you for being so honest about how hard it is. I couldn't resist a comment this time. :) God is awesome!
