Rebecca's Joy

The Ides of March are upon us. We had two rounds of family visits: My dad near the end of February, and my brother’s family at the beginning of March. Our home has been a bustling epicenter of hosting and hospitality. I have not really felt like cooking elaborate meals so most things have been relatively simple and easy to make. Near the end of the month, I traveled to Michigan to spend time with my family and friends.

Speaking of recipes . . . I need an epic roast! Something that tastes amazing and cooks for hours. I have a nice dutch oven, and would gladly settle for a lovely warm and filling meal.

Adoption Update: We passed our one year mark for the adoption wait. In some ways it feels like forever and in other ways it feels like it went fast. We continue to wait and renewed our home study in March.

With love,
