Children are a Gift From God, Our Korean Adoption Journey: JJ Heller - What Love Really Means (Official Music Video)

Great artist!! Had to share this song with you ...Enjoy

About Me...

I am a woman who is passionate about life. Always ready to follow my next dream or adventure. I love the Lord with my heart and I am thankful for the many blessings he has given me and our family. I feel the Lord has now given me a great compassion for the orphans in our world. I pray that more families will consider the life changing experience that adoption brings. It is a great blessing and calling from God! I believe every child should have a family to call their own. I know the positive experience with adopting our daughter from South Korea has changed us forever! Just as I feel our two beautiful Biological children are miracles....She is also a miracle and blessing beyond words!! For the past 12 yrs I was the owner of my own dance studio. Since then I have loved being home more for my kids and have started sharing my passion for fitness training. I dabble in my photography and love to capture that perfect moment! I have many dreams and desires that I want to accomplish. I am not afraid of hard work and dedication. I started blogging while we were awaiting our referral of our baby girl, and now my blog has become about raising kids, and everything that I might be passionate about. May God bless you!
