I'm just putting this out there. I want someone, somewhere to be asked out this way...

By Build-A-Bear,

With the voice box inside asking the girl out.

That way the girl can relive the moment as often as they want.

This has just been in my mind for a long time. I think it's ridiculously adorable. Seeing as you can't very well plan how you yourself get asked out, I thought this way somebody else would get the idea and it could happen for someone else. Spread the word. =]

Forever Families and adoption

Well, I will be having another new sister next September. After an insanely long process, my mom and step dad have finally been approved for adoption. We are getting to adopt a beautiful little Chinese girl. Next September we are going to fly to Taiwan (where she is right now) and spend a week there. At the end of that week, we will get to bring Alison home with us. We could not be more excited. All we have to do now is pray that God will provide us the funding for the completion of the adoption and the trip to bring her home. It's a lot of money. I'm not worried though. God will provide. He has blessed us so much and He is enabling us to be a blessing in this little girl's life. What more could we ask for. Keep us, and little Ali, in your prayers!
