If you have visited here before, you can probably see that I have changed the name of the blog again. I started blogging at 4URuthie to tell the story of our journey to adopt our 1st daughter. I changed it to Mountains for Maggie when we were praying for God to move mountains on behalf of our 2nd daughter. Well now it is no longer just Ruthie’s or Maggie’s stories. It is now our family's story, and the stories of those we share life with, as we Conquer Mountains together. Both ConqueringMountains.net and 4URuthie.blogspot will lead here.

Dear Ruthie-  
We put together a care package today to send to you.  I made a pillow for you with our pictures on the front so you could be looking at our faces and might recognize us when we pick you up. Sam wanted to include one of his cars and a whistle in your box, but we will wait and let you play with those when you get here.  Our homestudy is updated and our fingerprints are clear.  These are all steps closer to bringing you home.
