Faith, Family, Adoption, Outdoors
I am a wife, mommy, and ER doctor, sometimes all at once and sometimes one at a time.
Sometimes I’m amazed what some scraps of material and a little time on the sewing machine can produce. Clint and I had had a discussion one night about little boys and while we have tried hard to avoid and keep out most of the violent toys and such from our house, we decided that our […]
MoreWhile most of the US was out shopping early Friday morning, Clint and I got to make a journey down to Denver to get our “biometrics” taken. It sounded super exciting, it wasn’t. First off, biometrics is a fancy way of saying “finger prints”. We got an official letter from the US government Department of […]
MoreWe had the opportunity to get together with some friends from college the other night for dinner at their house. We have the unique relationship with them that even though it’s been a number of months since we last had the chance to get together we are able to pick up and start talking like […]
MoreAs we are rapidly approaching Thanksgiving this week, I decided to do something this year to help get my family ready all month long.

MoreIn the past few weeks Leighton has suddenly taken to hitting and kicking as his way of dealing with something. If Caedmon takes a toy then Leighton will bonk him on the head. If he gets tired and doesn’t want to do something then he tries to hit or kick Clint or I. Obviously this […]
MoreIt’s been a little while since my last update. Not a whole lot to report, however our agency is starting to get referrals for babies born in 2013. This is good news because we have to wait (giving the Korea 12 month rule with Caedmon) until a baby that was born at the end of […]
MoreSo it seems that it was out weekend to make Preschool Projects. Actually we were already late turning one in as it was “due” (as much as that pertains to preschool) last week. Oops, mommy misplaced the instructions and the form for the project. Luckily I found it so we won’t be the only ones […]
