Did the Zambia crew get off okay with all of the snow? I’ve heard there are a lot of flights canceled from the ATL airport. Look forward to hearing about their trip. ๐Ÿ™‚

What makes a family? (T-SHIRTS ARE IN!!! Let the fundraiser begin!!!)

What makes a family–a family??? Is it blood? Is it marriage? Is it friendships so strong…what is it exactly? Well, it can be a lot of different things that MAKE a family…and at the core of each of them–it’s always LOVE. LOVE has no boundaries. LOVE will make a parent perservere dispite circumstances…it will make […]

I preordered one of these and probably ordered a small. Andrea, what size do you wear in it? I don’t mind a snug fit but if you think a med would be a great fit for you would you change mine to a medium, also? I’m sure either size will fit so whichever fits you best send me:)
thanks!!

Asher Collie - December 19, 2010 - 4:57 pm

Not sure what you mean by comment on how many times you should enter us. ๐Ÿ™‚ I think you should enter me 50 times. Like that?!? Oh, no? I think I only get to be entered twice since I could only do two things. I have a feeling I’m not pickin up what you’re laying down. ๐Ÿ™‚

Amy - December 19, 2010 - 5:09 pm

Okay, so I posted this on Facebook and I’m already a follower of your blog. I’m coming to the retreat, although I haven’t sent in the registration fee yet. If I don’t win the T-shirt giveaway, I will definitely order one. LOVE THEM!! We learned last week that we have $16,500 due on the 28th (yes, a mere 9 days) to continue the adoption of our daughter in Russia. Needless to say, ALL spending (including Christmas spending) has been put on hold until then. Anyway…

Kristin - December 19, 2010 - 5:54 pm

Happy Birthday Andrea! I posted on FB, I follow your blog and I bought a t-shirt. Sooooo excited for the retreat! Hugs, Kristin

Hi!
Also curious about these shirts? Still available?

Please pray for Tucker…

I have a precious friend adopting with our agency whose little guy needs our prayers. You can read more about it on their blog here. Tucker is Lauren’s FIRST baby boy…and she will be traveling in ONE month to see him for the first time. They’ll then have to travel back home and wait for […]

Lauren - December 14, 2010 - 3:43 pm

THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!! It is so special knowing that so many people are praying for Tucker and the other little babies who are sick right now! God is with them in Africa and He’s with us here in the US… and He is good all the time!

You are a WONDERFUL friend!!!

Shelly - December 14, 2010 - 8:26 pm

jenn - December 15, 2010 - 9:44 am

Thanks for the sweet words about Daniel. Hopefully he will be well just in time for our trip to PICK HIM UP!! As you know…it is SO hard to wait on God to reveal His plan…oh the waiting!!!!

Specific need in Ethiopia…

Isn’t it amazing that we live in a country and world where WE can know a need on the OTHER side of the world? Isn’t it amazing that you can read about this need from the comfort of your home and actually make a HUGE impact right where you are—in the lives of orphans across […]

Thanks so much for posting this. I’m working with my Aunt on this fundraiser and we’re really hoping to meet this need for the kids at the care point. They have been receiving regular meals at this center now since the summer and were just able to start school (for the first time most likely) in September. Thanks for using your blog and talent to make a difference!

Hey Girl – I have that same stress-induced quirkiness. It so drives my husband crazy but I just think it is a coping skill. Rough day for the McAndrews crew and I totally needed the laugh with Frankie and Laney. Thanks!
