Randomish

Seriously, does anyone know how to fold the stupid dumb fitted sheet?!  I have just given up on trying anymore. Hah!  So, here is my usual attempt and then I just put them in the linen closet. 

This random post is dedicated to Sarah @ Flying Kites since she is queen of random blog posts.  :)

Miss Hannah

Remember this post about Hannah the little girl from China that I sponsored for Christmas in 2009?  Well, she has grown and changed so much and you know what....she is available for adoption!! 

This little girl without even knowning it has touched my heart in many ways.  I pray that her forever family is out there and ready to love her as their own. 

Here is the post about her adoption information

Hi! :)




10 Months!  Where oh where did the time go!  Miss "I hate tummy time" has finally {almost} accepted it and is starting to scoot...well backwards that is!  Faith loves her food and pretty much doesn't turn a morsel down. :)  She definately loves her Mama and Daddy!  She is beginning to reach out and whines when we move out of view.  We are all so thankful she sleeps well!  We sure are in love with our little Boogie!

Urgent! Please take a moment to read and help/advocate for the Children from Ethiopia.

Quoted from this site and you can sign the petition going to the link below.

http://www.gopetition.com/petition/43714.html


The Ministry’s plan to reduce intercountry adoption by 90% is a tragic, unnecessary and a disproportionate reaction to concerns of isolated abuses in the intercountry adoption process.


We support the Ministry’s goal of ensuring ethical adoptions that serve the best interest of children and serve all vulnerable children & families.


We respectfully urge the Ministry to consider the overwhelmingly positive, ethical and legal services provided to children and families through intercountry adoption. Rather than eliminate the right of Ethiopian children to a permanent family, we encourage the Ministry to accept the partnerships offered by governments, NGOs, and foundations.


Such partnerships could increase the Ministry’s capacity to regulate service providers, further ensure ethical adoptions and expand services to more families and children.


We, respectfully urge the Ministry of Women’s, Children's and Youth Affairs to reconsider its plan and to partner with governments, NGOs and foundations to achieve their goals and avoid the coming tragedy for children and families.
