Oh what a precious year 2009 was!! A year I will NEVER forget....a year of learning about God's faithfulness, provision, love, mercy, and seeing a glimpse of His heart. I am in awe of the precious life that he brought into our family and how it has forever changed us. I love Nile beyond words and I am still amazed at how well he fits in our family. I never thought it would feel so natural.
Since this adoption is behind us I think this blog will become more than just about our adoption. God has stirred some other passions in me lately that I will be sharing about.
Here's what you can expect from my future blogging. Yes, I will keep you up-to-date on Nile and more on my other kiddos Bowen and Anslee, but right now my passions are learning what being a Christian "like Christ" looks like, reading any and everything about authentic Christian living and orphan care, adoption, parenting, nutrition, being a staying at home mom, and homeschooling.
I already have blog post in my head that I have been waiting to find time to type! Stay tuned.
This is a glimpse into our journey to our sweet Ethiopian son. Through this journey we found a new heart. God lead us closer to himself and we are forever grateful for this opportunity.

I agree with you girl. . . 2010 is going to be a year of study for me as well. Some friends and I are reading through a Chronological Bible together - I'm excited to finally read God's Word in it's entirety.
Our family's hearts have also been stirred to show authentic Christianity to those around us - we hope to portray more love, grace, joy, mercy, and thankfulness so that our neighbors and family will come to know Him as their Savior.
I'm anxious to read your new posts and see what the Lord is doing in your life. You (and your family) are such an encouragement to many and truly reflect God's light. Have a Happy New Year!
**Michael and I are leaning heavily towards homeschooling as well. We may have to chat in the future!
Looking forward to your posts.
We realized we have a neat connection with you through my cousin's wife, Bri.
Happy New Year!
Blessings,
