I'm always excited to read new arrivals, BUT... this one really touched my heart! Congratulations to all and prayers to one special birthmom and grandma. We're so happy for all of you!!!!! Stacie & Tim Rathbun

Praying for all making decisions right now. How special these children and their momma are!

I know that it would be hard for piw's to consider an older child when they have had their hearts set on a baby. I probably wouldn't have given up my dream of an infant. And don't get me wrong, I'm so thankful for every moment I've had with my sweet little angel, but.... I would definitely consider an older child. I think the first year of life, although sweet and special, is also extremely difficult. I think of a one year old like in the sibling group and the age my Alexis is now and think of all the fun that lies ahead. She is just now enjoying things like the zoo and parks, etc. She is so much more mobile and active. I think it would be neat to have a sibling group that were still so young. A ready-made family, a boy and a girl- it does sound like a dream come true. I realize that I'm on the other end of the spectrum now and it is the whole "it's easy for you to say," but that is just my two cents, for anyone thinking about opening their hearts to these kids. May God lead and direct- guilt should not be a motivator! Stacie
