Father's Day 2011

I don’t have any cutsie pics of John and the kids to post for today (sorry!!). 
We had a busy but really NICE day today.  We started out with church.  Then we took my Mom and went out to lunch.  We came home and the littles took naps (ok, I snoozed a teeny bit too).  For supper, our friend, and fellow adopting Mama ,LouAnn and her kiddos came over for supper. 
Today was John’s first Father’s Day without his Dad.  It was also his first as a Father of FOUR!  This is the man that said “Two kids might be ok”.  Hehe 
John’s Mom is doing better.  They think she might even get to go home in a few days.  It’s amazing how quickly she’s turned around since they figured out what the problem was.  So thankful!! 
Today has been a little tough for me.  I miss my Dad.  I texted my Brother to say “Happy Father’s Day, Love you & I miss you”.   No response though…  I miss my Brother.    He usually responds when I wish him a “Happy whatever” on holidays… guess I pushed my luck tellin him I miss him.   Sigh…

  1. Hello from Reece’s Rainbow!


     


    I have recently started
    serving Reece’s Rainbow as the Post-Adoption Care Coordinator.   Some adopted children slide right into the
    family but most will have some struggles and some may have a very hard time.  My role is to help keep families connected
    after they come home and to provide support and a listening ear as well as access
    to helpful resources.  You are not alone!


     


    If you are not already
    involved in the After the Rainbow yahoo group then please join us.  It’s a great place to give and receive
    information and support!  Also, if I can
    help you personally in any way, please feel free to contact me.  My email address is Rachel@reecesrainbow.org
