I am going to share our experiences, ideas, inspirations, accomplishments, and even our flops and fiascoes in our journey to make this little part of the world a better place. Our plan is to grow to be better people.
Lists, Bathtubs, and Faith
The realization that the laundry isn’t clean and put away, dust is stacking up on furniture, and the house hasn’t been picked up in a couple of days has sunk in. Everyone laughs and says that’s what happens when you have a baby and all the extras that come with them. I haven’t quite figured out how to complete projects, even after a year! Okay, … Continue reading Lists, Bathtubs, and Faith

National Adoption Month – Our Adoption Story
Children are amazing, truthful, funny, intelligent, and so full of energy. I love kids! I’d like to share our adoption journey in the hopes it may help others who are possibly pursuing that option. It takes a great deal of work, makes you think about different circumstances, and situations, but is absolutely worth every second of stress and worry. My little twist is that I … Continue reading National Adoption Month – Our Adoption Story
