And it is further true amongst all those who claim leadership by virtue of divine authority we may apply this test with authority - that the man who stands for humanity, first, last and all the time, against all vested interest, religious and economic, is the man who stands as Jesus stood.

Niki's New Lil' Sis
05.03.08 (12:51 am)   [edit]

Congratulations go out to Nicole who completed her Masters of Public Policy program at Vanderbilt University and is spending some time with her family in Louisville before making the big drive out west.

Wagon ho!

Niki's having a blast with her mom, Cathy, and the precious little girl that has been placed permanently with Nicole's mother. The little blessings name is Adrianna and Adrianna's had our hearts for many months now and we are thrilled that she will now be such a big part of our family. She's already calling Niki her "sister", which makes Nicole very happy. I guess this means I will soon have a 3 year old sister-in-law while Warren and Gracie have a 3 year old Aunt!


Adrianna

Warren and Gracie love Adrianna to death and we can't wait to spend time with her in June when we are in Kentucky for the wedding.

We love you Adrianna and we are so happy that will be around to keep us laughing for a long, long time!

Permanent placement- is this the same as adoption? Pretty girl, and blessed to now be surrounded with love.

Congrats to Nicole. I would think one would have to be awfully smart to grad with a Masters from Vandy. Sounds like there are a lot of lucky people connected to Nicole.

Sort of... it's complicated! lol! Adrianna is Nicole's mother's niece and Nicole's little cousin. Adrianna's mother, also Cathy's niece, has some life challenges that she is doing her best to resolve. Cathy has been caring for Adrianna for some time through the ups and downs of that process, which unfortunately became such that Adrianna's best interest became to be "placed permanently" in the care of her Aunt Cathy.

So, Cathy (Nicole's wonderful mom) has permanent custody of Adrianna and will raise her. It is always very humbling to in the presence of human beings like Cathy who give so much and do it without fanfare or expectation of gratitude. Adrianna, of course, has no idea that she just won one of life's best lotteries -- the parent lottery!

She's just adorable and so so so funny! She is the source of constant stories and laughter in our life everyday - even from a couple of thousand miles away on the phone.

Yes it is! Adrianna is with Nicole and Cathy (Nicole's BioMom and Adrianna's Bonus Mom) in Nashville packing up Nicole's apartment. Adrianna's having a blast and is just so dang funny all the time. She makes me laugh so hard on the phone. We are hoping things work out that maybe they can make the move to SoCal soon as well.
