Hughes was having fun taking pictures at the 4th of July festivities and Bev decided to help him. She was sqatting down and they both fell backwards onto the blankets.

This blog has been created to journal my adoption. As many of you know, this journey has been a roller coaster ride. One beloved friend said this phrase came to mind during one of the many dips..."the road to H*** is paved with good intentions". The journey has certainely been H***, but the outcome will be wonderful.
A note to all of you:
- Shari
- All of you have been wonderful during this time. Your thoughts, prayers, and shoulders have been a blessing to this endeavour. I am unable to express my gratitude to all of you, you know who you are. Please enjoy this blog and the continuation of the journey. Shari
