21. In our first hours as a family after adopting Small Sun. In one of four hotels we stayed in while waiting for permission to travel across state lines to bring him home. Those fancy pants are pajamas.
22. The start of a small studio space for me to create. The desk drawer holds notions and the built in cupboard has fabrics. On the bookcase are design magazines and books, garden books, patterns, my collected collage books, and sketch books. Finally I don't have to pack and unpack as much when I sew. I have some big ideas for this little corner...one step at a time.
What an amazing journey you have had in bringing your son home, thank you so much for sharing your story!I too have an adopted daughter and I just cannot imagine my life without her, I honestly do believe everything happens for a reason. It was such a struggle trying help my parents realize why I wanted to adopted. They kept asking me questions like how can you love a child who isn't your own? I was so hurt by their words, that I found sites like http://onlineceucredit.com/edu/social-work-ceus-cpa to be really insightful to help my parents understand and accept my decision. I have found some great advice here and I hope you do too!

I love your studio! So well organized and efficient! Makes you want to sit down and clutter it up with a fun project it's so inviting! : )
You're beautifully somber with Mr Pastaman; He's so teeny!
