Yesterday we had the joy of spending the day walking around DC. It’s always been one of my favorite cities. In fact when Dw closed up his law practice to attend seminary, we envisioned moving to DC after seminary. We thought the Lord’s plan would be to combine his law and seminary to serve in…

Joy of joys!! Ruby had outgrown her wheelchair and was fitted for a new one. Anyone dealing with medical equipment understands that it is quite a process! A prescription for a new chair, then the wait for the appointment {which is usually weeks or months down the road}. Finally the appointment and deciding which chair…

As I await the final edits on Rescuing Ruby I thought I would share a brief update… We are super excited to be so close to having it actually published. To be perfectly honest, it hit me the other day, “Wow! I wrote a book!” I don’t think it had ever really, really, really …

There are so many times throughout my day that I shake my head and marvel. This girl right here. Daily she has me laughing. Yesterday there were some Essential Oils on the bed, she had been tucked in for the night… But she started sliding her feet over to move them. I said, “Hey Ruby,…

As we were driving home from our big 3,700+ mile trip on Tuesday we were playing our usual “Thankful Game”…. One by one the kids went around the car naming 10 things they were thankful for from the trip. The conversation was lively. We all had a blast. The turn came to Ruby and Isaiah…

This girl!! Miss Ruby Grace has been at it again! We’ve been praying for 3 years for this… Each accomplishment she makes, albeit the ones that take 4.5 years to achieve, are no less spectacular at our home – and we are throwing a doggone celebration!! Last week when Abi and her boys were visiting…

Anyone who knows Ruby, knows that she loves to suck her left index finger. A few months ago when she and I were out alone, she was sucking her finger and I asked her, “Hey Ruby, would you please pull your finger out and talk to me?” Of course I had no idea what she…
