I am in a season of my life where I am so unbelievably thankful. I know I have said it over and over that God keeps providing in this situation (and you'll probably continue to hear it over and over so it you don't like it, you may want to stop reading!) but it is truly amazing. The love, support, and encouragement from every person who knows our situation is crazy. I was prepared for people to tell me terrible stories. I was prepared for people to ask us why we weren't going further with fertility treatments. I was prepared to have to explain all the details of how God had called us to end the roller coaster ride and called us to adopt. And I've never had to do any of those things. I've had lots of hugs. Lots of prayers. Lots of beautiful stories. Lots of LOVE. And for that, I am thankful.
My friend has decided to help Chris and I fund some of our adoption costs by doing a Scentsy fundraiser. Not sure if you know much about Scentsy, but they're pretty incredible. Buy the warmer and a couple of scents and your home will smell amazing. WAY safer than a candle, a great Christmas gift, and 30% of your sale goes toward Baby Crowder. If you are interested, click here. It will be shipped directly to your address so you can buy even if we have never met. The party ends December 6th to get everything in by Christmas so order away friends! I am SO thankful for your support.
Rejoice always, pray continually, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus. 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18
Happy Thanksgiving!

Kristin,
This is Kristen Yelton...blast from the past. Lindsey Moseid told me about your journey and your blog and shared the link with me to read it. I am not on Facebook, so I miss out on a lot and rely on her to keep me in the loop. I've obviously never met Chris, but I know that you would not choose to spend your life with anyone less than spectacular. I can't even imagine how hard this journey has been for the both of you, but I'm so glad that you have kept your faith and still have love at the center of your hearts. If there is ever anything that I can do, please do not hesitate to let me know... you know I got your back girl! I will keep my ears and eyes open for anything that could help. But most importantly, I will keep you all in my thoughts. Best of luck! Kristen Yelton
