The “Project” I’ve Been Busy With

November 12, 2014 Linny Saunders8 Comments

Although your story will likely not look exactly like ours, I share ours because I firmly believe that we, as the body of Christ, are called to live outrageously and by our reckless love for Christ, encourage others that they, too, can make a…

OUR Little Guy is FIVE…

January 28, 2012 Linny Saunders134 Comments

Where in the world has the time gone? He is our quiet guy. The one who doesn’t say much, but is always thinking and when he speaks – no doubt, we all listen. He is very wise! He is extremely funny and loves to tease us all. He was named after the…

Elijah Mueller Turns FOUR!

January 25, 2011 Linny Saunders74 Comments

Our littlest treasure {so far} turned FOUR today. The little guy whose smile melts this mama’s heart. Rather shy and quiet, let me just say, this guy knows how to pray. He is concerned for those around him and prays with passion. We know that the man Elijah {in scripture} was “a man who…

Adoption From Uganda (thru our eyes and experience)

December 29, 2008 Linny Saunders10 Comments

About a bazillion of you have written and asked about adoption from Uganda….FINALLY! – here’s the skinny, from our personal experience. Uganda does not “do” adoption….at least not the way that China or other countries do it… Infact if you go back and read early posts (Julyish) when Dw was in Uganda, I had googled…

Elijah Muller’s FIRST Kiss

December 28, 2008 Linny Saunders22 Comments

I don’t know any mama who wants their kids to look less than adorable when picture taking. Somehow Elijah has been giving us the “deer in the headlights” look each time we are photo taking so I finally decided, since Dw is at the office, to work extra hard to get some pictures so everyone…

Food on international…

December 24, 2008 Linny Saunders16 Comments

Dear sweet, sweet friends: Do you love surprises as much as I do? Not just gifts – but TRUE surprises!! Like a surprise when someone comes to visit that you didn’t expect. Like an unexpected phone call from someone you miss very, very much? Like an email from someone you haven’t heard from in a…

Time Zone Challenges

December 20, 2008 Linny Saunders15 Comments

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?’…

The First Day Home in Print….=)

December 20, 2008 Linny Saunders10 Comments

Where to begin? First off – it is soooo good to be home. Hunkered down in our little log home with the Christmas tree lights glowing, the wood stove crackling and the smell of the Christmas cookies Emmy and Liberty made this afternoon – perfect! I have missed home sooooo much that I confess there…

I am thrilled to say that I have two of the most precious VISAs in my pouch safely tucked against my heart. How faithful God is and oh how He loves the orphans!! I was up early, early, early because I wanted to be sure to find Elijah and Elizabeth in their cribs….I took pics…
