Bath Time

I swear sometimes he stays in the bath so long that I think he must have grown gills.  Little fishy.

Long summer days

On these long summer days I can’t wait until the evening, when the sun changes from brutaly hot to perfectly warm.  When the cool breeze blows through our yard, and you know another wonderful summer day is about to come to an end and another wonderful summer night is about to begin.  There’s about an hour of perfect light.  The light that just hugs the earth with golden, pink tones.  It is my favorite time.

My Sweet Maggie is one

My sweet Maggie turned one year old yesterday.  She has been such an incredible little ray of sunshine in our lives.  Maggie is always happy, always laughing and smiling.  She is content just about anywhere and gives the sweetest hugs in the world.  She loves herself a good ‘mum mum’ and likes yogurt for breakfast.  Maggie idolizes her big sister and waits with arms up for Ella to swing her around.  She loves playing with Bennet, watches his every move.  In fact, no one can make Maggie laugh like Bennet can.  I am so sad that my sweet Maggie is growing up, but am so excited each day to see her grow and change.  Thank you God for this sweet light in my life.  Happy Birthday sweet Magpie!

Last weekend I was able to witness my best friend and her best friend become man and wife.  What a sweet and perfect day for them.  The weather was gorgeous and the farm they got married at was filled with love and happiness.  Mere – I was so honored to stand next to you on your amazing day.

What can I say…I simply adore these two!  Is there anything sweet than the love between a daddy and his little girl?

Referral Day

This coming Monday, March 14th was the first time we saw our son’s face.  We were coming home from a ski trip and got the call while going through airport security.  There were a lot of emotions that day. A lot of rejoicing.  A lot of joyful shouting.  A lot of disbelief.  That was the day that I was able to put a face with the idea that I was the mother to a child thousands of miles across the world.  It was a long process to see this face, but one that was worth all the fear, all the second guessing.  God is so good, and I am so thankful that we heard the Lord’s call three years ago and followed him into the unknown.  We are blessed everyday by this sweet face.

Melanie and Wes are getting married!  This is such a sweet couple, and I am so excited about being a part of their day.  They are getting married at Melanie’s family horse farm on Easter weekend.  Think pink peonies and a texas sunset!
