Faith, Family, Adoption, Outdoors
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 […]
MoreAs we are rapidly approaching Thanksgiving this week, I decided to do something this year to help get my family ready all month long. I’ve seen a number of people post something every day that they are thankful for throughout the month but wanted to make it a little more tangible and noticeable in our […]
MoreWhat cold day is not complete without a fort being built? I remember growing up and my brothers and I using every spare sheet and blanket that my parents had and building elaborate forts. We would make rooms and special doorways and all sorts of things out of the sheets and some chairs. We had […]
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 […]
MoreCaedmon wrote a letter recently to his friend Jackson. Granted he may have had a little help from mommy, but just a little. Jackson- Hey man, I heard you were born a few months ago and wanted to write you a note then, but my mommy is slow about getting gifts in the mail so […]
MoreDear Little One- The Autumn is really pretty here this year. I wish I could show it to you. I have seen from pictures that people have posted that are over in Seoul right now picking up their little ones that there are a lot of beautiful leaves there too. But I’m not sure that […]
MoreIt truly is. Those extroverts out there are probably thinking that this is crazy talk, but those like me all know that it is true. Think about it. Either you walk around the block with the kids and ring a bunch of doorbells and silently hope on the inside that no one is going to […]
MoreDon’t get me wrong, I love my boys. But the other night Clint and I were washing the dinner dishes when the boys go running through the living room each holding onto one end of an exercise resistance band. Leighton doesn’t have pants on, and Caedmon is carrying the flyswatter. They are laughing and giggling […]
