A Special Day.......

8 years ago we moved into our first house.... into the County that we had wanted to move to for a while.... The first time we went to the county fair was one of the most precious days in my life.... it was the day that Jeremy said we were going to adopt. That we were going to begin our journey to find our child. It was the day I had been praying for since I was a little girl... for over 8 years of marriage..... it was a good day! That night as I floated around, gazing starry eyed at the rides, the games, the children.... dreaming of the next year when MY child would be the one whose face I looked into with his little eyes lit up like the carnival rides..... His Daddy handed me cotton candy.... I looked at him and said, "Priceless is the first time you get to see your child taste cotton candy."
One year later we returned to the county fair with our son............................... his eyes were big as saucers, with a sparkle that out shone the brightest of lights. Giggling hysterically as we rode the scrambler with his Auntie Stella. Wearing his little, brown leather bomber jacket and fishing for prizes. Eating the fair food. Playing the games and winning prizes. Daddy won me a big rainbow stove pipe hat. Nicholas tasted cotton candy for the first time... I was correct. Priceless..........
He was 4, I was 37 and it was a truly, beautiful night...... one I shall never forget.
4 years later our daughter came home and we were off to the fair......................................
Life is soooooooooooooooooooooooo good..........................
God is sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo good........
and I am oh, so blessed!
Thank You Jesus for answering my prayers with my Meeshka and Peep..... God's speed to my little pearl.
Tonight we go to the county fair...... PRICELESS.............................
