Our Life on our Coffee Table

The other day i was looking at the collections of books and magazines on our little coffee table. They tell a story, and offer a glimpse into our hearts and lives during this difficult season. So I thought I would capture it in pictures and share in words.

Because our life will change. We will have answers to all our questions, eventually. And all the unknowns will become surer in time. But for now our lives and our coffee table looks like this:

The bottom layer is magazines:
Stepping Stones, the newsletter from Bethany Christian Services' infertility ministry

LifeLines, the magazine put out to Bethany Christian Services adoptive clients

then comes the books for the pain we encountered the past few months:

Direct Hit by Paul Borden
What Works When Life Doesn't by Stuart Briscoe
Streams in the Desert by L.B. Cowman

And then, hope for the future of our family:

Adopted for Life by Russell Moore
What to Expect the First Year
