It’s been a whirlwind of a year with our Lucy Pearl and I still cannot believe we are parents to a one year old. The old cliché “time flies when you’re having fun” is absolutely true when raising kids. Andrew and I have loved every single moment, even the hard ones, because we prayed for… Continue reading Party fit for a Farm Princess
Wait. Just Wait.
Over this past year, I started writing post after post about our adoption journey, beginning to end, and faced an emotional block each time. There was so much to include.

When Andrew and I first met, we always talked about adoption and the desire to open our hearts and home to orphans after we had biological children. Just as we have all been adopted by our Heavenly Father,… Continue reading Matters of the Heart…
