Red Thread Journey..."An invisible red thread connects those who are destined to meet, regardless of time, place, or circumstances. The thread may stretch or tangle, but will never break." Chinese Proverb


This is the story of our family: Our son Jacob, born to us 12 years ago, and Our daughter Kira (2005~2006), whom was born to us~ and now she rests in heaven before us, with my husband's eldest daughter Shelby (1990~2011). They have all three blessed our lives and souls, in many ways as their humbled parents. They have powerfully lead us through GOD'S hand to be parents of more; through their love, memory, and with the help of adoption from China. We have now come complete circle and have finished our journey to family forever, to adopt our 3...uhhhhh now 4th...no... it is our 5th beloved child from China. Our first China daughter; Hannah was from Guangdong, China ~ in 2008 and we then returned to China in late 2009 to adopt Our oldest son; Scott and Our oldest daughter; Athena, both from Henan, China ~ in 2009. We just finished the process of adopting our youngest daughter; Bella from China, she was also from Henan, China ~ in 2011. At the same time we were blessed to be able to have found another waiting daughter; Deanna, our 4th china daughter, and she is our 5th child from China. She is from Guangdong, China--same as our first China daughter; Hannah (2008) --& the story behind Deanna joining us is way too long to print it all here, but our circle of forever family is complete with her ~in 2011. {Here is just an exerpt of that special final adoption journey}-- Deanna is our 1st adopted daughter's foster sister from Guangdong, China. She is now the same age as our 1st adopted daughter was when we were first united as a forever family. Deanna's Chinese name means: 'perfect, precious circle'.} Our family circle is now complete. Pray with us as we enjoy parenthood, and as we continue to rejoice in the trials, triumphs, and blessings that have lead us each time halfway around the world to add to our cherished family. This is our family we share with you, as friends and family alike.

"You are..."

Little "H." said,
"You are the best mom E..V..E ..R.",
and who could argue with that:
Drive-Thru McDonald's and Craft Toys,... all in the same evening.

I think "J." was happy to agree tonight with "H.", as well. A Toy Blaster from the new "G.I. Joe" Hero Movie! ~ "Thanks mom, this is Awesome."

Best Mom E.. V.. E.. R, ... or at~least for tonight! awwhh {wink,wink :o)}

First day of school... & the cousins 2nd day photo too.

The funny guy!
The "Fairy Princess".
Today was the kids first day...
I went on to work and daddy dropped them off at School.
~
& I picked them up. :o)
My little "H.", looks a little lost at Pick up time...
"J." snuck up on me. He was in front of me before I ever saw him coming. :)
...and now little "H." sees mommy!
It was lightning & raining HARD, then it turned to hail at pick-up time, ... and we were alas, without an umbrella.

The four cousins: On their 2nd day of School. (We waited for the next day to get this photo, hoping the sunshine would return; since day one was a thunderous storm.)

This is Little "S.", her first year of school she is in Kindergarten :o) and her big brother "D." is in 1st Grade. (both Center) My "J." is on the left, a big 4th grader, and sweet "H." on the right is a 2nd grader.

Where is my walking buddy?

My friend moved last fall, and this summer was not the same... Where is my walking buddy?
This one is for you, sweetie!! Miss you.

Ta Dah! I am beautiful!

This is the typical funny bunch,... not quite sure if my family is coming or going? ... or a little of both! ;o)

Always time to stop!, ... and smell the flowers!


Do a little dance... get down the path!


Jacob & Hannah thought it would be more fun to ride... than walk tonight! Daddy went to Karate, so I bet they were right. ;o)
