I enjoyed your slowing down on your walk today. I look forward to hearing more of your journey to becoming a mum of your dream two. Perhaps this is it, you’d dreamed of two and although the one you didn’t workout with was such a loss it could be the universe making way for your dream. Sending lots of love and hugs 🤗
Exactly what I’m feeling, Sheila. You said it so well. Liz I love your spirit and your hope... and your courage and life-force! I see beautiful things ahead for you, and I’m glad to be cheering you on!!! 💕
Slowing down, stopping to smell the flowers, seeing the sights and the wonderment on their little faces- sounds amazing! You will make a wonderful mother and hopefully the stars will align this time.
It’s only natural for you to feel nervous and to question yourselves… it’s a life changer.
Thoughts and Prayers to you both on becoming the parents you have dreamt of being!
Fair warning Liz. Beth fostered to adopt a 22 month old girl and her 6 month old sister. We (I was an intricately involved “meme”) had them for a year. Their mother got her act together and in the end the family was reunited, which is often the case. My sister is a CASA worker and will testify that New Hampshire is strong on re-unification, as is the foster system. Saying goodbye to those little girls was one of the most heartbreaking things I had to do in my life.
My sister’s experience as a CASA worker was draining. She gave it up after months of cancelled or re-scheduled court appearances for getting parents to sign a TPR (termination of parental rights).
I don’t want to burst your bubble Liz, but things don’t always work out the way you would like them to. I’d hate to see you and Seth have to go through another disappointing experience.
Spring is on its way--earlier and warmer. That means, along with other good things, all kinds of positive miracles are in the air including the addition of 2 sweet young children to our family. You are going to have a fruitful time learning to love still-malleable little ones while supervising Baxter's complete healing. Yes, you were right in calling those exposed tunnels as vole tunnels. You and Seth have so much to teach little ones. See you soon at Camp Medford. Love, J and L.
I love the hope in this post and also the question: Who will I be if I don't do what I'm used to doing? Oh - I'll take on a new identity and I can trust that will be good. Excited for you!

Exciting. Glad you have the grounding relationship with nature during this change. Rooting for you!!

Hi Liz
Wishing your dog a speedy recovery.

I don’t mean to be so negative Liz, but I just think you should go into this with your eyes wide open.
Oh how I hope these children fit like handmade gloves into your lives. I hope it for you and for them, of course.
I hope love blooms and I hope you can manage your emotions - the hope and expectations - JUST INCASE. Sending 😘

Beautiful post. I felt like I was with you on those hikes/walks between your vivid descriptions and great pictures.
Sending all the healing vibes Baxter’s way 💜
I am thrilled for your news and sending you and your family vibes full of good health, happiness and love 🥰
Slowing down makes me envision seeing new spaces and places when and where the new steps and paths evolve… best wishes on the continuing journey.
I hope the adoption process unfolds beautifully for you all this time Liz ❤️
