Sleeping angel

I wanted to thank everyone for their comments on our blog, it means a lot to have all of you sharing our journey with us. Amanda is our 8Th child, should have seen the judges face when we said that! Sometimes when you are the 8Th (or 9Th like I was) people do not celebrate as much when you come, regardless of the way you enter the family.

So thank you again for caring enough to read and post comments.

So precious and peaceful Kris.
In my book she is just as important as the first one!

She really is a beautiful little angel. I love her little profile, it has so much personality and shows a certain innocence that you don’t see every day. It’s interesting but I have noticed that a lot of people have been posting that the response to their 8th (or greater) child seems to have dwindling interest among most involved. I think for me it would be the exact opposite. A 5th child? A 10th child? That’s amazing! I came from an extremely small family and would have given anything to have several brothers and sisters. I can’t wait to see the photos as Amanda is introduced to her wonderfully large family and how every person will interact differently with her. Thank you so much for sharing your journey with all of us!

I know the feeling ! The 8th is just as important if not more than the 1st ! Everytime I get another homestudy approval I thank the Lord ! I am on my 5th child, 4th adoption and on pins and needles as usual ! Come on homestudy ! Hoping to preview in September ! Keep posting ! Love it ! Wish you could check on my little girl in Tallinn ( Diana ).
