Reflections on change...

Yesterday was a tough day around here. We found out that our plans for a growing family have been postponed for a little while. It certainly has come as a shock to us after the completely uneventful experience we had with Sequoia's arrival. We know that this is a normal part of life's experience, but it has certainly left us a bit sad.

We are still very excited about adding another laughing voice to our house in the near future. We know that things will happen when the time is right. I certainly believe in the mysterious nature of the process. I am strongly reminded about how very unprepared and scared I was when I heard that we were expecting Sequoia ... and it is obvious what a wonderful blessing she has been from the beginning. I could not have predicted how perfect the timing of her arrival was, and I am convinced that the timing will be equally perfect if and when the next Newberg shows up.

For now, our family is perfect in every way. Not lacking for anything. Not missing anything. I love my two girls and feel my life is completely full and complete with them around. And because of that, there will always be more than enough love for one more.
We will welcome what the future brings with open hearts and open minds.
