We are so grateful to all our family and friends, old and new, for your love and prayers as we strive to expand our family.
On this special day, the first anniversary of Kya’s eternal union with us, we would like to announce our desire for a larger family.
Last year on February 10, 2007, we took Kya to the Logan Temple to be sealed to us for all eternity. What an awe inspiring experience that was. We were touched by the spirit, by the words of my grandfather, and by the spirit Kya carried as she looked at the picture of our Savior on the wall and reached out for him with open arms and the sweetest little giggles. She knows her Savior and that she is a daughter of God.
We feel it is time for her to have a little sibling (maybe two), either that or a puppy. But as we are renters and pets aren’t allowed, the puppy will have to wait. Besides, I would really rather change another diaper, than pick up poop. Don’t worry, Kya will get her puppy the first chance we get.
We have started another blog, an adoption blog. Please visit it, share it with others, and pass it on. In the gospel we are encouraged to ‘do all we can do, and He will carry us the rest of the way’. This is one of the ways that we do ALL we can do to have a family, it is to share our desire with all of you and spread the word. We know that it will be in His time that we will be blessed again, but first we must play our part.
The link to our adoption blog is www.threepluslove.blogspot.com. Please visit, comment if you want and again, pass it on. Thank you for taking the time to read this and thank you for your prayers. We feel the power of others' prayers daily.
A BRIEF TRIBUTEThank you a million times over to Kya's birthparents and families for blessing our lives with our sweet Kya.

I'm am really excited for you guys. I hope that everything moves quickly and smoothly for you. I'll be sure to pass your email along! Keep us posted!!
Glad you reminded us of the date when you took Kya to the temple. That truly was a special day for you, Carl and Kya and for those of us who were able to share in that very special moment in time. It was an awesome day, one we will never forget. Great post and I will keep my eyes and ears open.
So good to talk to you earlier today! Thanks for grabbing me. You are such a sweetheart, Paula.
I linked your adoption blog. It looks great! My prayers are with you guys... good luck!!

Kya,
I just wanted to know if the puppie in the picture is real?
Love,
CHELSEE
Okay...now that I can see enough to type...(tears) I wanted to tell you what an awesome job you did setting up your adoption page. I had the greatest opportunity over a year ago to be a "birth parent volunteer" in my stake. It really opened my eyes to how phenomenal the whole process is. I will pray for you guys and if you don't mind, post your blog on my website too. Here's to many more children filling your home...Love, Becky
Blessings to you! i am excited and rooting for you! Love you and miss you guys!
Thanks for the comment on my blog! I love your adoption blog. Isn't adoption such a wonderful journey. The day Ava was sealed to us is one the best days of my life. What a spiritual experience. I am glad to meet another family in an open adoption. We love Ava's birthmother with all our hearts and can't imagine life without her in it. Good luck on your next adoption journey! :)
Good luck! We're in the same boat, as you know. I might set up a new blog for just adoption as well. We'll see how ambition I get! :)
