Introduction	I am the wife of my best friend Philip and stay-at-home mother of 3 Blessings. We're adopting through Holt from India. Why adopt? Good question. The simple answer is that Philip and I have another daughter in our hearts. We can't "try for another girl" because I had serious heart issues during the last pregnancy. Therefore, for my safety and the baby's safety, we have been advised by my cardiologist to not have another child biologically. So, we have started this adventure to find our little girl that the Lord has placed in our hearts! Our journey began in earnest in January of 2008, attempting to adopt from Azerbaijan. Then, we were officially registered with the Bulgarian government on June 4, 2009 and waited until August, 2010. Then Holt approached us with a waiting child in India. So amazing to finally see a picture of the little girl that has been residing in our hearts for so long! We hope to bring her home Autumn of 2011.
