There’s Not Many Out There…

I don’t do many blogposts anymore for birthdays. There are so many of them and I always wonder if people are tired of seeing our celebrations. However, it’s that hubby of mine’s birthday and I want to honor him because, frankly, life is short and sometimes there just needs to be a honorary post for…

“Mom! I So ‘Cited For Tomorrow”

November 16, 2016November 16, 2016 Linny Saunders30 Comments

Yesterday afternoon I was busy working in the kitchen. Vern was folding clothes nearby, which is his chore each week. He turned toward me and said, “Mom, I so cited for tomorrow!” My mind whirled around, trying to think what ‘tomorrow’ was going to bring and then questioned him, “Why Vern? What are you so…

Yesterday our Nehemiah turned 13!! Can you believe it?? We can’t!! As I sat down to begin to write this post yesterday, I was overwhelmed with a flood of emotions. To think that he was over 9 years old before he came home to us is almost unbearable to Dw and I. Nee has told…

Ruby sure was excited to learn that so many of you wished her wonderful birthday wishes, she smiled and wiggled her little wiggle… which means, “Oh I can hardly stand the fun!” She has been working hard on learning to hold up her open hand when asked, “Ruby, how old are you?” Ruby’s done…

Okay, so I don’t do parties well. Actually throwing a party makes me nervous. I’m not a Pinteresty kind of gal and the whole thing intimidates me. But, a few months ago I began to think about Dw’s upcoming birthday – his 60th!! And it’s not every day my hunka hunka burnin’ love has…

For Months He Whispered….

In the early part of 2008 the Lord began to whisper to my soul, “You have an Elijah coming home.” He whispered it daily for months. I wondered where that Elijah might be?? Never mentioned it to the Bossman…just figured I would let Him tell him when He was good and ready. As Dw was…

Our New Years Gift….

One New Years day, nine years ago, an African princess was born. And from the beginning of time, Almighty God deemed her to be our daughter… and we would have the privilege of taking a ho-hum day like New Years and turning it into a heartfelt and joyous celebration of Elizabeth Mercy because she is…

Our Jubilee is a Teenager!!

Where oh where has the time gone? Just five years ago Emma and I landed on Christmas Eve with a frail 27 pound Jubilee two days shy of her eighth birthday. Mommy meets Jubilee for the first time – 27 lbs and just days before her 8th birthday Oh precious girl – you have waited…

Over the years of sharing my heart here, there is no doubt that those who’ve been hanging around have gotten to know our family. You’ve walked along with us through joyous seasons, days of sweet triumph and victory but also some very painful seasons. We’ve welcomed you into our lives and freely most…
