Ever in flux. Ever blessed.

Getting used to life with a sick kid is knowing that you just can’t make solid plans, this we have learned a long the way and will explain the later part of this post.

Blessed

I have been attending church since I was born, yet it hasn’t been until I have been older that I have really understood and benefitted from the joys of a Christian community.

another year past…

we are staring down our noses at 2012… sometimes I can’t believe it, I still remember the millennium like it was yesterday and here we are 12 years later!? I guess I am getting older. Last year I wrote a poetic tale of our lives over the last 5 years, and I spoke about theContinue reading “another year past…”

A special day…

Today, I finally made the leap that I have wanted to make for years but have for various reasons never been able to arrange. I was finally baptized! It was a beautiful service with a small group of my family and a few friends and it was made extra special because it was leadContinue reading “A special day…”

What a night!

At 11 o’clock yesterday morning, out of the blue Josh became ill with vomiting, shaking, and he turned blue, he also became very lethargic. He vomited more than we could count and by the time I got home (it had been girls day at the One of a Kind show until this). When I gotContinue reading “What a night!”
