Guess who is TWO?!
That’s right! Our big boy Shepherd turns T-W-O today! All 21 pounds of him 😉 We will be having a mini-celebration tonight (think lots of tone-deaf singing and a candle in a Snickers bar) and the big party will be saved for this weekend, when we can really do justice to his big day. We are also hoping our new… Read More
A request
A fellow adoptive mama emailed me recently to share some heartbreaking news, and a request to lift this grieving family in prayer. Carrie, a close friend of hers, had returned from China only 7 months ago with her daughter, Meri-Jain (MJ). On October 24, MJ slipped and fell. Her injuries proved to be fatal and she passed away last Sunday…. Read More
A good one
This had to be one of the best Halloween’s on the record book. And after the other day’s post, in which I complained about not having any ideas for costumes for my boys, I realized that this will be my 20th Halloween, in which I had a child partaking in trick-or-treating. Twentieth. I know you’re thinking, “Geez, she must be… Read More
A bad idea
I lovingly encouraged Jude to commit to wearing this hilarious awesome wig for Halloween by adding that if he were a ‘clown’ I’d let him carry a few of his favorite sidekicks: balloons. He happily acquiesced with all of the halloween section at W@lMart as witnesses, and we then happily trotted over to the party favor section to pick out… Read More
A preview
Isabelle’s costume was one that I had purchased at Old Navy a few weeks ago. She is a puppy, namely “FiFi”. Is she a cutie pie or what? Sophie has a similar costume, but she is a kitty. She didn’t have a parade this morning, so you’ll have to wait on her pictures 😉 Obviously, Dalton chose to be a… Read More
A hope and a future
This is Rocky. He is 6 years old lives in Changde and he has been waiting far too long for his chance at a forever family. His SN is clubfoot and limited use of his hands. Love Without Boundaries is offering a Tuan Yuan adoption assistance grant to help Rocky’s future family bring him home. The time is running short… Read More
Something to watch out for
Look out for these this Halloween, they contain melamine. The brand is Pir@te’s Gold and it is sold in Canada through Costco, but might have made it to dollar stores in bulk packages or individual coins. If you’re like me and doubt every forwarded email you receive, you can read about it on Snopes here or on Consumer Reports here.Happy… Read More
I’m it!
ARGH!! I’m feeling the pressure! First Lisa tagged me and well, I just love Lisa. And she’s new to all this tagging stuff and I’d hate to offend her. Except, if you know Lisa, you know that’s impossible. So I was able to brush it off for a few days, which have turned into weeks. Hey, I’m kinda busy, okay?… Read More
