9 Months but who is counting???

This month I'll be 9 months on paper. However, let me update you on some important things like my agency was finally accredited in December!!! That was a very nice Christmas present. So now what you may ask??? More waiting, more updating of documents as they expire and more just trusting God. 2008 didn't start out like I thought it would. I lost a very dear friend and confidant in January. She died unexpectedly and not only I was affect but my entire working staff. She wasn't supposed to go. She was supposed to be here for the day when they called to tell me I'm a mommy! It's times like these when people start to question God. Like why did He have to take her now? It's times like these when we need to ask God to hold us in His big arms. I know that London now has 3 guardian angels watching over her.
In the next few weeks I'll be saying good-bye to London's Aunt Cha-Cha as she moves to the big city to achieve her dreams. To say I'm going to miss her is an understatement. My life is going to be different without her in it and even though she is only 2 hours a way it still will be different. So while 2008 has started out as saying Good-Bye, I looking forward to the promise that God has for me...saying hello to my daughter.
