This is gonna be QUICK–this momma has little time to blog in this season of crazy…getting a dossier ready, homeschooling, preschoolers…but THIS story has to be documented for our sweet boy’s journey. YESTERDAY… …began just as a normal day. Kind of. We had 3 extra dears at our house–so 7 little children running around. In […]

Category Archives: Day in the Life This post…is just for my memory–so I have this down because these are a few I never want to forget. From Isaac (3 years)……so he runs up to me tonight while I was sitting in chair and quickly climbs in my lap. “What are YOU up to?” I asked. “I needed my momma! Cause you […] What treasures! I love following your family’s journey of faith. Praise the Lord for the blessings of these sweet children! Wishing you all the joys of Christmas!  I’m so not a city girl…I think although I’ve never lived there–my heart is in Tennessee:). Rich’s family is from Columbia–and we spend many of our holidays there. We got engaged at his family’s place there…and if Rich came home from work one day and said we were moving there–I might forget to pack our […] Andrea, I found your blog a few weeks ago and ole reading it. Do you speak often on adoption in GA? I’d love to hear your story, advice, and thoughts. My husband and I love Africa and are in the process of adopting from Africa right now. As a crow flies, you were born only about 75 miles north of that farm that you have grown to love. It makes perfect sense to me that it “feels like home” to you. 😉  My best friend from grade school whose kids are out this week for Thanksgiving convinced me that we needed to be out too…and when you are the principle of your homeschool…you can do that;). SO…we had them over and I whipped up some fun Thanksgiving gear. They had a blast playing in the backyard and […]  This is what my living room has been transformed to…Navajo territory… I made these tents several Christmases ago–and BEST HOME-MADE GIFT EVER…3 years later they still play with them ALL THE TIME. They love to take them outside in the spring, summer and fall…and when it’s chilly…my living room turns into the coolest tent territory:) […] Would LOVE a tutorial on the tents! So cute! i know you’re a home schooling mom so you would want to know, but the navajo did not live in teepees. they lived in dwellings called hogans. (http://navajopeople.org/navajo-hogans.htm) i only know this because moseby’s birth mother is full-blooded (plains) cree so we’ve been getting lots of books/doing research so i can show him about that culture one day. and the cree DID live in buffalo hide teepees. happy thanksgiving! so sweet!!! Please write that tutorial soon because Mareto would LOVE a tent like that in his room!! I’m thinking it may be his Christmas gift this year! 😉 I would really like to make one of these tepees for Fisher for Christmas too! Can’t wait to see the tutorial!!! |

Thank you for this post! We too are in the early process. We have identified a child and trying to get all the paperwork done, before her file has to go back. Our hang up as been funds. This has all happened so fast we can’t seem to raise it fast enough. Your post is encouragement to my heart for something my head already knows, God is faithful and will go before us. Thank you!
Powerful!! Thanks for sharing as always….encouraging for me.
That is soooooo awesome!!!! I loved hearing the story! It made me tear up about the official’s response to you guys. God is so good, praising the Lord with you as He prepares the way!
How awesome! You always share so well and leave us all hungry to walk closer with the Lord! Thank you!! We’re up to our eyeballs in paperwork too and appreciate the reminder to be asking that God goes before us with every form and signature. 🙂
That is awesome! Praise the Lord! It’s so fun to hear good news! Praying your son home quickly.
You are always such an encouragement to me, even though I have never met you. And the timing of my reading your posts always seems to be straight from the Lord. We got an important call today in our adoption process, and once again, I needed to read your post!
Yaaay! Praise God!!! So excited for you. We are currently awaiting our biometrics appt, too, anyway now… I keep checking our mailbox….
Oh Andrea! I LOVE this post! Praise Jesus indeed!!! Love seeing Him at work and going before us to get our kiddos home! Truly worthy of praise!
