Ginny is 19 months old now and I need to do a post chronicling her achievements. walks, runs (well sort of trots really), climbs up anything, knows how to turn on the TV/VCR at my mom’s house, can find keys even when the adults are looking everywhere and can’t find them, enjoyed finding Easter eggs, [...]

Enjoy this slide show. I had fun putting it together. This year has been an amazing journey. Adoption match, meeting and loving Ginny’s birth parents, birth by C-section, trip home from Kansas, overwhelming baby shower from our church, constant care from friends and family, the month of RSV treatments, first tooth, first solid foods, first [...]

okay. Thursday should have been titled “School orientation” not first day of school. I discovered the difference today. Thursday I got to go in with Ginny and play on the floor.

I don’t have photos of it, cause I was too busy watching it happen, but Ginny took three unsupported steps on Saturday. She stood up in the middle of her nursery, balanced, then took three slow, controlled, steps toward her toy cabinet. Then she stopped, stood still for a moment, and sat down. I was [...]

Time for the monthly update. Ginny is 11 months old (actually she will be one on Aug 29th, but whose counting?) and so far I have managed to do a photo post for each month. Ginny is walking by holding on to objects and using one hand to hold on to an adult. She is [...]

Just about everyone who reads my blog knows by now that my favorite Bible study leader is Beth Moore. As I read her blog more and more I am finding that I really enjoy the insights and posts from her daughters as well. This one in particular from Melissa (who lives here in Atlanta by [...]
