Thankful Thursday!! Today my heart is filled with Thankfulness as I write: Our oldest son is home on leave for four days. Yesterday he arrived home during nap time. He was pretty funny. He could not wait for the babies to get up. He kept walking by their door. Finally he walked by it enough,…

Little Miss Elizabeth Mercy is girl through and through. We gave her a Snow White dress and she has worn it all day long. She stands and shakes it like a bell…just so sweet. She and Elijah made some HUGE progress in the dog arena these past two days. Rett (thank you so much Rett!)…

About a bazillion of you have written and asked about adoption from Uganda….FINALLY! – here’s the skinny, from our personal experience.

The little ones were up at 5:15 am for the day **yawn** As I got them up for breakfast I kept telling them that it was Jesus’ birthday and today we would have lots of fun. They didn’t get it, but not to worry – when everyone else got up 2 hours later they caught…

Ya’ know there is something that is almost borderline sick when it comes to blogging. It seems to make almost everything in life turn into a blog post of some sort. I was wondering, ‘what did I used to do with all these little stories when I was first a mom, some 26+ years ago?’…

Yes, open your window and hear the shouts of joy coming from Africa!! Celebrate with us Almighty God’s divine intervention in Elijah and Elizabeth’s VISA situation.
