Hello Family and Friends wow it is already July 12th this year is flying by. This has been a busy past few months for us as we have been finishing up our Foster to Adopt classes and getting our new home well new to us and our family together. We love the space and now we have room for our baby or babies to come. We finished our Home study up on July 4th so we should hopefully have our home opened very soon. We are excited yet scared also. We know that we have to protect our hearts when these children come and go out of our home but helping them will be our reward. Reunification is the key with their Birth families.
We so hope to adopt someday but when GOD opens the right door. We have still been thinking about the Little girl that we missed by 2 hours last month I can't get her out of my head. You know we are really so Blessed to have all of this support from our Friends and Family.
We have received car seats that we needed, clothes for girls, and boys items and clothes on the way. We went to a few Yard Sales on Saturday and we were Blessed to find some adorable things that are now in the nursery. I want to thank a very special lady I don't know her name and she didn't know me but she will always have a special place in our heart. I was buying the little girls clothes and she gave me an adorable diaper bag for a Little Girl that was monogrammed and was told to get the name replaced on there. I said I sure will Thank you so much she specifically said their are things still in there just keep what you want. I found a lot of nice things but the thing that stood out the most was a special key chain that reads.
Faithful Father on one side and the other side said ...Passing on the Faith"...showing to the generation to come the praises of the LORD,and his strength,and his wonderful works that he hath done." Psalms 78:4 (KJV)
wow that gave me cold chills all over again. If that is not a confirmation that we are on the path that GOD wants us to be on I don't know what is. This was on Saturday that I got this. Last night I found my carseat the Graco Betsey Carseat that I have been looking for that I dreamed my Little Girl would be in it is no longer sold in stores but Casey found it. It may not seem like a big deal to anyone else but to me and him that is just GOD putting the pieces of the puzzle together for us. God is so wonderful and we give him all the praise and the honor and the glory for it all.
Thank you again to all our friends and family that have stood and are standing by us during our process. We love you and the ones that are still on the adoption journey may God send you your Little Prince or Princess very soon. Fertility problems are no fun at all but God will make a way it may not be what we expect it to be but you can rest assure that it is the right way because it is Gods way.
We are still in need of Pack n play and swing and all other things that you need for girls and boys. Starting over is not easy but God will provide. I can't believe what he has provided thus far. Of course I still want all of my Pink and Brown items from the Graco Betsey Collection but we are keeping our eyes open. I have fell in love with craigslist we look on there everday for items.
As I always say in closing if you hear of a child who is going up for adoption or if you hear of a child going into Foster Care let us know. Keep us in your thoughts and prayers everyday. Please send us a private email to our facebook account or to our fraziernat@gmail.com
Thank you so much and GOD bless each and every one of you.

Happy June everyone!
Casey and I have been super busy. Let me just tell you how the Lord works. We have been living in a two bedroom home for over 2 years and when GOD put it on our hearts to Foster his children I actually made our dining room into another bedroom. I had it all planned out on how that I would do it and I did it. I can just see God laughing at me thinking my dear child you have no idea what I am about to do. for you and your family. Going through the Foster classes has taught me and Casey so much. So this is what happened. We had a house within the family and GOD opened the door for us to get it. 4 bedroom all remodeled through out. God is Good people and let me tell you we thank him everyday. We have been so busy moving and continuing our classes and this Saturday will be our last PATH classes. We will have to conduct an interview and then our Homestudy.
This past Monday God decided to throw another curve ball and We got a call from a Dear precious friend and she said have you been praying and I said of course everyday she said no for your baby girl I said yes everyday. Mind you when we moved into the house here the room was already pink so I decided just to leave it pink. The Nursery is ready we are just waiting for our Little Girl and or Little Boy. Well we really thought that baby girl was coming home with us but she didn't get to she is in another home but I pray that she knew that we wanted her and loved her. God has a plan and when he through that curve ball we had all kinds of emotions all kinds and I think as Foster Parents we will feel the same way whether we have the child for 2 days or 2 years. The way I look at it. God has blessed us beyond measure and the only way that we can pay him back is by taking care of his children.
We are excited to be on this Path that GOD wants us to be on. I have been singing a new song He'll Make a Way. Our son sings it louder than I do. He will say sing it Mommy. I will say really listen to the words. He will make a way in the middle of no where.<iframe width="425" height="349" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/phyMIkhJlqU" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> Here it is take a listen. God is there and he is on the scene in any situation that w go through in life. Oh how I would love to be holding that baby girl today as I am typing our blog in the nursery today but we have no idea what GOD has in store. I am thinking that I need to repaint the room a more neutral color we are open to Girl or boy or both. I am not sure how many kids that we can help but we are open to what GOD has in store.
Please keep us in your thoughts and prayers as we continue on our Journey. God has a reason for everything and for that I will not question because every prayer that we pray is GOD whatever be in your will be done because if it's not then it is not his time. I pray for the baby girl and we will always have a special bond. She was born on my Birthday..... That was amazing. I pray our paths cross again someday.
We have really made some Awesome new friends during the process. Thank you to all of our supporters My parents are so Awesome I love you Mom and Dad. They know that we are following Gods path and they are so supportive and encouragers. Our whole family was bummed about not being able to bring baby girl home but I said you know what God has another child or children out there that needs us worse and that is the way that I look at it. Even if we would have adopted her as planned we would still Foster. Please keep your eyes and ears open of any adoptions and or children going into Foster Care. I can't even watch the news anymore it sickens me of the things that people actually do to children. I pray GOD's hedge of protection around any and all children.
If you need to reach us please email us at fraziernat@gmail.com or either of our facebook accounts allows you to send private messages. GOD is so Wonderful Thank him everyday. Please continue to remember our friends as they are also on an Adoption Journey near and far and also the new Foster Parents. Our class is filled with lots of LOVE and an Amazing Instructor. Hope everyone has a great week. Until next month. May God Bless you all in a might big way. Love you. One other thing. My Birthday has passed my Husbands is coming up quick Happy Birthday honey. But also Happy Father's Day!!!! To Jesus and Happy Daddy's Day to all the AWESOME Dads out there.

MAY 2011
I can’t believe that today is Thursday, May 12, 2011 time is really flying by. I am a little late with getting our blog updated this month. It has been a busy month so far. Mother’s Day has come and gone this year. I had a great one with my family. My Little Man got me the sweetest card ever and made me some really sweet gifts. I would rather have that than the most expensive gift that money can buy because the homemade gifts are priceless.
This Saturday we start our PATH classes to Foster to Adopt. I really believe with all of the people that GOD has put in our path recently that this is the path he wants us to take. I believe with my whole heart that GOD has a child or children out there that need us. I will say it before and I will say it again we will follow GOD and his path that he has for us.
Since we don’t know the age of the child or children we have been getting the Nursery/Toddler room ready. God has blessed us beyond measure with our Little Man. We thank God for him every day. We are still keeping all options open for adoption but as of right not this is the plan for us.
Little Man is so excited for another child to come live with us even if it is only for a short time. We have put it all in the hands of GOD.
We are in need of baby items if you or any of your friends have any for sale. I am just going to keep a variety on hand. We donated all of our clothes and Little Mans Clothes that didn’t fit anymore to two families that lost everything in the Tornadoes. God really had his hands on us during this time. It missed our house by 400 yards. Thank you GOD for your hedge of protection all the time.
In My Heart
Not flesh of my flesh,
Nor bone of my bone,
But still miraculously my own,
And don't forget for a single minute,
You didn't grow under my heart but in it.
Nor bone of my bone,
But still miraculously my own,
And don't forget for a single minute,
You didn't grow under my heart but in it.
KISSES IN THE WIND (The Waiting Child's Lullabye)
I hold you in my heart and touch you in my dreams.
You are here each day with me, at least that's how it seems.
I know you wonder where we are... what's taking us so long.
But remember child, I love you so and God will keep you strong.
Now go outside and feel the breeze and let it touch your skin...
Because tonight, just as always, I blow you kisses in the wind.
May God hold you in His hand until I can be with you.
I promise you, my darling, I'm doing all that I can do.
Very soon, you'll have a family for real, not just pretend.
But for tonight, just as always, I blow you kisses in the wind.
May God wrap you in His arms and hold you very tight.
And let the angels bring the kisses that I send to you each night.
I hold you in my heart and touch you in my dreams.

Please keep us in your thoughts and prayers as we begin this new part of our Adoption Journey. Please keep your eyes and ears open for any potential adoptions for us. Thank you so much for your continued support and prayers for us and our friends who are on the same journey. God is so amazing and we are excited about this new journey. We are in need of baby items if you or someone you know has any for sale. I want all pink and Brown Casey wants blue of course. Little Man just wants to be a Big Brother or a friend. Email us at fraziernat@gmail.com or send one of us a facebook personal message please. God Bless you each and every one.

Hello everyone:
April is slipping by so quickly it is already the 10th of April. It sure has been a rainy start but also some Beautiful days we have had so far. (As our son says its a beautiful sunny day)
Casey and I have been praying about some things and we have decided to start the process to Foster to Adopt. God has been leading us in this direction for a while but a call from a dear friend just really opened our eyes to the option. We want to keep all of our options open but are so excited about starting our PATH class on May 14, 2011. I know God has something mighty instore for me and my family. Little Man so wants a sibling to play and grow up with. We are just going to let God lead us to our second baby.
A friend of mine sent me a Beautiful song with video that I want to share it just touched my heart so much this weekend.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9IAehbNc1ps
Please keep us in prayer as we well not begin a new path but lets just say add a few lanes in our journey. We want to keep all options open but first and foremost we want to follow the path that God has for us.
Please also remember all my friends and family that are on their own Adoption Journey.
(We pray for you daily)
If you hear of any possibilities please email us on facebook or fraziernat@gmail.net Thank you all so much for yor continued support and prayers it means so much to us all of us. We are still hoping and praying for a newborn but God has to open those doors for us. God will make a way he did with our son.
Hope you all have a wonderful month. God Bless... Please remember my family in prayers also my family members have been going through some challenges but I know God can move mountains and I know God knows all about it.

Hello everyone! I am a little behind on getting my Blog updated this month. We have been planning Little Mans 3rd Birthday Party. Oh how time flies It feels like yesterday we were bringing him home from the hospital. Oh what a Blessed day that was. God is so amazing. He never ceases to amaze me in the miracles that he lets come to pass.
No adoption news for us this month but we are just enjoying our Son that God has so blessed us with. We got him a new swing set for his birthday and he wants to stay outside all the time. We are having a lots of fun. We are so excited for the warm weather that is coming this week. We will be outside with our sunblock on. lol. Where do Little boys get so much energy? I so wish I had that much energy. I love it he keeps me going and he keeps me on my toes.
I am sure that everyone has been watching the coverage of Japan. I seen where a 4 month old little girl was still alive after days that they have been doing search and rescue they said they had heard so many sounds but never imagined hearing the cries of a baby. She was a doll all wrapped in a pink blanket. I told my husband that she looked just like an Angel. God has so much in store for that baby girl. I pray her mom and dad are still alive. I have been looking for a follow-up to the story on yahoo news. It just touched my heart and soul to see that baby girl.

Hello Everyone! Wow how January is gone and February is flying by. I am so ready for Spring and Summer. January was an Awesome month for us because we took a vacation to the Beautiful Daytona Beach, FL. It was Little Mans first time at the beach and he loved it. He called it Dino Island. We had a great time for two weeks. We didn't want to come back to the cold and snow here because it was 75 degrees there but luck would have it when we came back here it was in the 60's at least for a few days. Vacations are so much fun I kept telling Casey maybe next year we will have two children with us. He said we will need a bigger car (lol). I always pack way too much but all mothers know when you have a child or children you have to prepare for the unexpected. So me and Little Man had tons of clothes.
No news on any possible adoptions for us in the last two months. I know God has a plan and his plan will be revealed at his time and not our time. We are keeping the faith and praying everyday that God will open the right door for us.
Please continue to remember us and our friends who are in the process of adopting, or who have almost reached their Adoption Journey. Can't wait to see those precious babies that God has so Blessed you with.
God is good all the time we must never forget that. Even when things look dim and not so bright. God is working. You just have to set back and watch it unfold right before your eyes. Whoosh gives me cold chills as I am typing our blog. (Thank you Jesus)
Thank you God for what you do for us, done for us, and what you are going to do for us. We give you all the praise, the honor and the glory for it all.
Please keep your eyes and ears open for any possible birth mothers or potential adoptions for us. Thank you for your continued support and prayers. Until next month God Bless you all and we love you so very much.

Hello Everyone! Hope everyone is having a great January. I have been doing my Bible reading in Matthew and Isaiah this week. I always go back to those two. Like Romans and Psalms. It is comforting to me. I love Matthew 21 21:21 & 21:22 KJV
Jesus answered and said unto them, Verily I say unto you, If ye have faith, and doubt not, ye shall not only do this which is done to the fig tree, but also if ye shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; it shall be done. And ALL things whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing ye shall receive.
I had a friend ask me the other day. How do you keep your FAITH so strong. I said look at what God has already done for me and my family, and My friends and family around us.
I know without a shadow of a doubt that we will get that call one day. When I don't know but God has a plan and a purpose.
Please remember two of mine and Casey's friends as they are just beginning the adoption process. It is not an easy journey but God said I never promised it would be easy I just promised I would be with you.
