Category Archives: Day in the Life KID FUN This is how we spent our day yesterday… Aren’t these two just about the cutest you’ve ever seen?! They are just 14 months apart…Irish twins…and they are bestbuds. We went to a cookie party at Aunt April’s house–and Aunt April knows how to throw a party. She had Miss Gail http://www.missgailmusic.com/ for entertainment pre-cookie […]  What a fun weekend the Young fam had! Rico Suave (aka the hubby) took me on a date Friday night to one of our fav spots—such fun! Then Saturday we got up bright and early…put on some Christmas cheer…and got ready to go to a cookie decorating party at an old friend’s house. When I […] Love the pictures!!!! Hey, you know my dad was great at wearing crazy clothing at the craziest times too….hmmm…..oh well- call it a Blessing 🙂 Keep the photo info coming! Are you on the ILP boards? I love to lurk there!  OK–sweet readers you know I’m a writer…and writer’s usually = thinkers. And thinkers usually really think BEFORE they write…and HAVE everything flowing nicely, pieces put together…and a theme in mind before they even start. Today’s post…bear with me. Actually–why don’t you come with me instead? My mind keeps drifting to 3 different encounters I have […] Love it! May your day be blessed today 🙂 I am with you on the wanting it to be perfect, trying to interfere in the kids’ projects……that is where daddy is usually better at that than me. Never really thought of it in that perspective. Praise God for His Love even when……..life isn’t perfect! Loved this post! The journey of adopting has really made me think about the little things in my world too. All the expectations of our culture are so “me” centered. Great points and I love how you always pull it together at the end! I love reading about “Andrea world!” Like everyone said while we were in EA, you are a great story teller! Your the best! Loved this post… I am struggling with the same questions–I am finding it hard to go about my everyday life without being, for lack of a better word, haunted by images and thoughts of children (and adults) who are without the basics of life, while my life is a sick abundance in comparison. This adoption Journey sure is life changing! Merry Christmas to you and your family! Up late and just read this post. It really spoke to me Andrea. You are a beautiful writer! 🙂  OK…so I was MIA for a few days. But lemme tell ya—now I can actually concentrate on writing again. First, muchos gracious to my blog readers for following me over to this new address. If you have my old blog address saved in your blogroll, please put this new address www.babeofmyheart.comin its place. I’m new to […] what a beautiful first gift for the nursery. and it does capture the love and sacrifice of both the ethiopian mommy and the forever mommy. what joy i find in resting in him and know that his power is greater in my weaknesses. i realize his power must be so great, because i am so weak! thank you for your honesty, sweet andrea! Geez, talk about getting emotional reading that quote! I guess I should not read blogs at work… Thank you for sharing! Love that frame too! You can’t go wrong with any of the frames from Magnolia Lane. I sure miss Carta Bella. 🙁 My favorite store in Vickery Village until they moved to Roswell. Such a sweet family. Merry Christmas to you and your family. 🙂 How do you watermark a picture on your blog? thanks!!Polly  Thanks for making the treck to my new blog address. Please update this address if your blog is linked to mine! I’m still adding pages, links, etc–so if you would like to have your blog linked to mine, please add yours in my comments and I’ll add your link when I update my blog roll. […] Very cool. I changed your address on my blogroll. Beautiful blog. I have been following your blog for about a month….our third child is adopted from Guatemala and we are seriously praying about starting ET. (We also have a little girl named Lane….she sometimes goes by Laney). What a precious family you have and can’t wait to see how God is going to bless you even more with your new ET love. I have a wordpress blog too and was wondering if you could give me any tips on how you were able to set yours up with a great template and stuff. I see that you used a .com domain…mine is hosted at wordpress.com. I think you have to use a self-hosted domain like yours to be able to set up more options…did you create the template and everything yourself? I know you are a busy mom, but any help would be appreciated. Your blog looks great! Jenny C. http://journeytojames1-27.blogspot.com/ I am thinking about making the move too…how does wordpress protect things? Could you tell me how to make the switch, too? I don’t want to go privat necessarily, but I do want to make things a little more secure. I didn’t know you could use special backgrounds and all that on wordpress! Beautiful card! Yes, apparently I also need some WordPress coaching… are you offering classes? 😉 I lovvvvveeeee your blog!!! I too would love to know how to switch to wordpress!!! Going to change your address on my blogroll now… Like the new look. God bless you! Jen Hey! I’ve been following your blog and would love to continue to do so! Could you let me know exactly what I should do to continue? I’d also would like to know more about the wordpress. Thanks! Heather Looks awesome! Love how your card coordinates with your blog 🙂 I should have had you make our card…I was never thrilled with my final product. Hope the new format works well for ya…I like having a wordpress blog…pretty sure you will too!!! Jenn love the new header!! and, as always, love your blog! LOVE IT!!! Will you share how you made WordPress so cute on one of your posts!?! I was looking at this, but the templates were so drab and I love the look on my google blogger:) I love it! The Christmas card is beautiful too. Ours aren’t getting made or sent out until our babies are home, so ours are going to be landing in mailboxes in February. I just can’t bring myself to make them without pictures of 2 members of our family on them. So everyone will just have to wait. I’m sure they’ll understand. Can’t wait to see more pictures. I too would love some advice and details about switching to WordPress. I would love to be added to your blog roll….Love reading your blog & have updated it on our web. Thanks again for all the tips…. 🙂 Love your Christmas Card- Definitely have sooo many reasons to Celebrate Christ!! Hey there! So, do you think this website will be more secure? I was wondering if I should move mine too? I love the new look Andrea! The new blog looks great! I love my wordpress blog, just haven’t kept it up as I should! (www.yettobestudios.com/blog) I LOVE LOVE LOVE your Christmas card! Do you make them yourself??? |
