Running, #2, and grief

To update those who follow ...
who probably haven't looked at the blog for a while...
thanks for hanging in there with me.

I have continued to enjoy running...in fact just finished race #3 last week with a time of 30:54. Not bad after the flu and all that comes with being sick.

We've finally had progress on the embryo adoption and we have our consult Jan. 21st with a possibility of a transfer in early March, which means #2 could be with us by Dec. of 2010, very exciting..more to come later on this bit of info.

And finally we are at the final stages of life for my dear grandma that I've loved, that has been a supporter of me and who has loved me and been my cheerleader during those ups and downs of life. In the lasts 5 years she has lost a battle to depression, succumbing to the negative aspects of life and relationships which has been devastating to watch, however, we still see glimpses of Gods' grace that He continues to shine down upon her. However, it is time, she has "seen" my grandpa (who I still miss) walking to her and wait for her. He was/is the love of her life . So I'm thankful the Lord has him walking to her to receive her on the other side.

It is bittersweet, she is in so much pain, but of course, I would love for Jake to have known her as I did. We have stories to share and she loved Jake so much, she would brighten up when she heard his name..
