We are still WAITING and it has been 10 months since we were home studied approved. Some days are easier then others but I have to keep remembering God is in control. We have really not had any actions but have had a few people say they know of someone and wants our information but have not heard anything else from any of these situations. We just pray for the birthparents and the decisions that they are having to make. They have the hardest part and are stronger then the credit they get. I can't imagine what all they go through. Please if you are reading this support any birthparent you know and DON'T judge them. Our hearts or so open to them and wanting a relationship that is best for everyone involved.
While we are waiting we are enjoying our time together and time with family. We are so blessed to have wonderful families!
Hopefully, we will be chosen soon and can start loving our child.
Thanks for your prayers during this journey and anytime.

Update
Well, I had decided to just let this blog be more of a profile so I don't get on it much but thought I would update some today.
We are still anxiously waiting any information regarding our forever child. Some days the wait are easier then others. I am so ready for Johnny and I to begin the journey of raising our child. I know that God has a plan and His own timetable, which is not our time. Prayer for adoption and all involved is a constant in our lives. We now have a youtube video: Johnny & Kim Adoption - Middle TN, check it out.

Child of My Heart
Child of My Heart
Oh my child, child of my heart.
There is so much to tell you, where shall I start?
I know you're out there, maybe even now.
I know that God will lead you to me, someway somehow.
I may never feel you kick or hear your heart beat for that first time.
But, from the moment that I hold you, there will be no doubt that you are mine.
Maybe even now, your birth mom is considering what to do.
I can only imagine what she is going through.
Maybe she is a child herself, with dreams to fulfill.
Maybe she is not ready for a little one, but I know she loves you still.
I know her heart must be breaking, and at night she cannot sleep.
I know if it is possible, it's you she'd want to keep.
On the other side, I am waiting here.
I can sense her love for you and also her fear.
I wish that I could tell her of all the sleepless nights,
of all the test and procedures and the prayers that this time just maybe it would be right.
I could tell her of all the tears, of all the prayers we've had.
Of the times that I felt so lost, of all the times I've been sad.
I can offer a Mom to kiss away the hurt and tuck you in at night,
I can offer a Dad to teach you to play ball and how to fly a kite.
I can offer a home and a family complete with aunts, uncles, cousins, Nana and Papa.
They are all waiting for you, and loving you from afar.
I will share my love with you each and every day.
I will tell you of the woman who loved you in every single way.
I will make sure that you know just the sacrifice she made.
And if you someday want to meet her,
I will never try to dissuade.
For without this special women,
I would have never had the chance to love you.
My dream of being a Mom, would have never come true.
So, please if you are out there.
Please know I care.
I know what a sacrifice you are making and I would never judge you, that would be unfair.
I am praying for you even now and please know from the very start.
This child will always be a part of you and a child of my "heart".

***I found this poen and really liked it. I hope and pray that an open adoption is what you are looking for but we will understand if not. We are more than happy to have an open adoption even if that is exchanging letters and emails. Kim***

Thanksgiving
Thanksgiving is tomorrow and I have some much to be thankful for. I serve a wonderful and risen Savior and am free to worship Him. I have an amazing husband that treats me like a queen and is always there for me. My parents are wonderful and I am so blessed to have them. I am blessed with a great sister and brothers and nieces and nephews. The list could go on and on but the main thing to say is I am blessed and very thankful for all the wonderful things I have in my life. We are continuing to pray that one day we will have a little one to be so thankful for and also we will be extremely thankful for the birthparents.
I hope everyone has a great Thanksgiving!!
I am also thankful to be having 4 days off but of course they will be busy with family gathers and getting all the Christmas stuff up.
