Alternatively titled, I have way too much time on my hands.

My friend B asked in my last post: “Am I the only one that thinks your children are mini versions of you and your husband? Reed is all your husband and Lena is all you! So meant to be!”

When we were praying about which child to adopt last year, one sweet little boy caught my eye– he reminded me a ton of my husband.

I can’t wait to give it to her, although I’m trying to figure out when I can sneak off to play with it myself. Anyone want to guess what she’s getting?
