One year ago, we had our little foster baby, Helen. We were having our first real "trial run" as parents and were saying, "Hey, this isn't so hard!" OK, so we were a little naive.
One year ago, we were spending new year's eve with some friends, and Rob got really sick- the first day of a week long bout of dysentery.
One year ago, we were in a different apartment, trying to keep our landlady from storing more stuff in our cabinets and trying not to let on that there would soon be a child in our home (on several occasions she tried hard to convince us to wait to have kids, for the sake of keeping her apartment clean).
One year ago, it hadn't even entered our imagination that April would be pregnant before our adoption was final.
One year ago, we were expecting to bring our daughter home from Ukraine sometime in the summer of 2010...and that she would be about 18 months old.
One year ago, Rob hadn't started noticing gray hairs.
One year ago, we never gave a thought to Interpol or the actions of the Ukrainian Parliament.
One year ago, we were in a very different place! Much has changed, but God has not.
One year from now...well, it makes me dizzy to think of all that will change in the next year!
