http://strollingautobahn.blogspot.com/2014_03_01_archive.html
Strolling down the Autobahn. This is a simple story of a simple family trying to slow down this crazy life and enjoy the "moments". Friday, March 21, 2014. Blowing in the Wind…. This morning I asked the kids to clean the kitchen. Specifically to sweep the muddy mess previously known as "kitchen floor"). While I went upstairs to tackle the mound of spring break laundry. They happily started the job. And by happily, I mean with only 5-7 minutes of whining and grumbling.). Then, I heard a noise. Blowing in ...

A Single Mom's Journey: February 2010
http://conceivedinprayer.blogspot.com/2010_02_01_archive.html
A Single Mom's Journey. Conceived in prayer, born of my heart. Thursday, February 25, 2010. Apparently Tiger Woods broke his marriage vows. Repeatedly. And the world is fascinated by this news, which initially perplexed me a little. It's not as if Tiger is the first celebrity, sports hero, or famous person to cheat. Far from it. The list is long but includes names familiar to all of us. So why is everyone so fixated on Tiger's cheating ways? I have a theory. For my part, instead of engaging in the all-te...

Strolling down the Autobahn...: The Girl Gets It….

Strolling down the Autobahn. This is a simple story of a simple family trying to slow down this crazy life and enjoy the "moments". Wednesday, January 21, 2015. The Girl Gets It…. I am on a bit of MT kick….and I like it! A Christian leader visited Mother Teresa. As he prepared to leave, she asked him: "How can I pray for you.". He replied: "That I have more clarity on the plan that the Lord has for me in the future.". The leader answered: "But, Mother Teresa: you always had clarity.". A Great Motto….

I've kicked around the idea of starting a whole separate blog for my second adoption, and that is definitely something I may start in the next few weeks. I will post one final entry here with the web address if I do indeed decide to do this (gotta keep things fair between the girls.if I have a blog for Sabah I need a blog for H).

To Ethiopia and Back. A journey to my daughter. The Day We Met. Photo and video editing at www.OneTrueMedia.com. Monday, July 19, 2010. On Saturday, I took Sabah down to get her hair professionally braided for the first time. I was so excited to get her hair cornrowed so that I didn't have to mess with it for a couple of weeks. It can be very time consuming in the morning to comb through her hair. She has beautiful curly hair, but it definitely takes a lot of work. Monday, July 12, 2010. 2) Last reminder...
