Partying Feet

A few weeks back Autumn asked if she could take me and treat me to a pedicure….and my feet screamed, “YES!”…so yesterday Autumn, Emma, my niece Beth {visiting from Buffalo} and I headed for a pedicure. A special treat, for sure, and we had lots of fun to boot! And the finished product? My feet!…

It’s A-Comin’

My very favoritest day of the year is coming….only FIVE days away – the day that makes me smile the most – yup! Mother’s Day. For many, many years {probably about 20} I would sew matching outfits for all of us to wear….I wanted our clothes to scream “we’re together – these kids are MINE!”…

Elizabeth wasted no time in telling Abi that she’s four now….If only Tyler, Sarah and Ryan were here….they’d ALL be home…When everyone turned to go, Isaiah was waiting for me….and I was taking pictures…He watched the kids,…

Lots to Be Thankful For….Our Trip

Thank you all for your prayers {and continued prayers} as we sort through all of this for Jubilee. We definitely have never walked this road before and truly, we haven’t a clue. On that note, it never even crossed my mind that posting yesterday about Jubilee’s medical situation would produce helpful information from you, our…
