I have been kind of incognito for a while. Life has changed in the last year, drastically. For one, we had a baby. Well, not me. But, our family. In other words, we are adopting again. I will share more in the future. It is amazing how this little one came to be in our […]

It is well with my soul. A 5th grade memory. Learning to “laugh at myself.”

Emotional Wreck Week
For whatever reason, what we thought was going to be, isn’t.
We are crushed, but not broken. Hurt but not dismayed.
What we held n our hands and got to love on for very few short hours was amazing for this side of Heaven.

Great NEWS! After a year of destruction – we have a blessing!
