3 year anniversary

Today has been 3 years since our LID waiting for Maddie. It has been such a long road. We have so many emotions. At this point we just want her to be here with us. To celebrate our LID anniversary we bought her a present and absolutely love it. We love you so much Maddie and can't wait to see your sweet face.

Time

Time is flying by. I just turned another year older and Brian will in a couple of weeks. Oh I do not want another birthday to go by without Maddie. I try really hard not to let it bother me, but I can't help it. I really want Maddie to be here with us to start family memories. Sometimes it just doesn't seem fair. Well on a happy note, my mom is starting to peice together the 100 good wish quilt. Can't wait to see the finished product. We are coming up on 3 years April 24th, there just isn't much to say about that. But maybe not a whole lot longer.

NO NEWS

Today is 34 months waiting for Maddie..............................

WAITING A LONG TIME

If you notice our clicker at the bottom of the blog we have been waiting 1002 days. On the 24th it will be 33 months waiting.
Another big day coming up,our little honey bunny (neice Lilee) with be turning 3 in a couple of weeks. We love you Lilee. She can't wait for Maddie either she is already blaming her for everything and not wanting to share her toys with her. Oh the fun to come. CAN'T WAIT.................

New beginnings

A new year and new beginnings, that is what we hope for in 2010. We hope that this is the year that we start our new family. We are hoping that we will maybe get her around summer time. Fingers and toes crossed. We had a wonderful Christmas. Just was missing one important thing... Maddie! Hopefully this is the last year without her. Thanks for all the heart felt prayers.


Lots of warm wishes for The Steele Family.

HAPPY HOLIDAYS TO ALL

I hope everyone has a safe and happy holiday season. How I wish we had Maddie with us to celebrate the season, but it must not be our time. Hopefully this will be the last year without her. We have our tree up and I'm almost done shopping and about halfway done wrapping. This is so unlike me because this is all usually done by now. I started a new job this week and it is going well. I think after I get settled with it I will love it. Again everyone have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. From The Steele's
