behind

My birthday was 8 days ago.

Chris’ was 11 days ago.

And I’m just getting around to editing and posting a few pictures.

I admit it… I’m behind.

But it’s a good behind.

A happy behind.

*if you’re thinking what I’m thinking when reading “a happy behind” then stop that right now.


birthdays-3

I’ve been playing a bunch with my kids.

Spending time outside.

Wreaking havoc in the creek.

Hanging out with our church community.


birthdays-2

Playing games around the kitchen table until late at night.

Reading through the Bible with Asher and Dalton.

Studying Mere Christianity with Victoria and Zach.

Not sure when I’ll be posting more regularly.

Because for now, this happy behind is just fine.

proceed with caution

a dirty secret in adoption
we don't celebrate gotcha day
there's no such thing as an easy adoption
if I can, you can.
co-sleeping, why we do it.
gawsh. the series.
crazy
affording adoption
God and me.
