'Tis a gift to be simple. Yet, somehow things are never simple in the Whitfield household. We have made the decision to adopt a child (or two!) from Ethiopia. Please check our blog from time to time for the latest in our adoption journey. Your prayers and support are always welcome!

Take Two!

Let’s try this again! Our current adoption status is “on hold” but I am working hard to change that. We are gathering all the paperwork needed, medical letters, birth certificates ,etc. and hoping we will be back in the “waiting” category early in the new year.



I’m just wondering if this will end in another surprise like our Miss Maggie Anne! We’ll be thankful either way.

Maggie’s Home!

Actually, she has been home for over two weeks. I’ve just been too overwhelmed to post! I guess sometimes it’s hard to get exactly what you want.

Magdalene Anne Grace was born at 9:44pm on April 14, 2010. She weighed 5 pounds 15 ounces and was 18 and 1/2 inches long.

It was a long day of labor for me, but worth every contraction and tear once we saw our beautiful girl.
