What an Incredible Life!

This past weekend, the totally unexpected happened. We were asked to meet a couple of kiddos that will be legally free and need an adoptive family. Wasn't what we were looking for at all. Another 4 year old boy, and his 6 year old sister. Talk about love at first site! They are so much like 4 year old David and 6 year old Amanda. We thought that either the kids would hate each other, or love each other. Guess what?!! They loved each other! And we fell in love with them! Was so hard to take them back to their foster mom last night. Made me cry! Now, in the next few days, we have to see if we will get approved to adopt these babies and hopefully start moving them in! Our Home Supervisor said she really felt God leading her to bring these kids to us, and had no doubt that this was a good match. Now, to start managing having 6 kids 6 and under in the house. So wish I could find a way to get the basement finished. I am beside myself with excitement of not only having more kids, but that God has so much faith in us. What an incredible honor! So, if you would, please add our family to your prayers. We need to come up with the financing to get some expansion on the house. Hopefully by Christmas, I can post a HUGE family pic of my amazing children! So excited. Going to get cranking on some crafts for the baby's adoption party. May God Bless You as He has my wonderful family.

  3. Hey there...you asked about how to make my Candy Wrapper Button Earrings. Here's a link to a great tutorial: http://www.burdastyle.com/projects/covered-button-earings/instructions/1

    For my earrings I just used a candy wrapper instead of the fabric, and gave them a few coats of Mod Podge to finish them off. Hope that helps!!
