http://sea-of-grace.blogspot.com/2015/08/the-ultimate-welcome-home.html
Sea of Grace: Our Adoption Journey. Sunday, August 16, 2015. The ULTIMATE “Welcome Home”. Recently, Dale and I went to his hometown to attend the funeral of his cousin, “Dick”. Dick and his wife, Beth, have always been a sound and solid “root” to this family. I remember early in our marriage when all but “4 foot something “ little Beth would sweetly exclaim to me, “you two are on my prayer list for children, Nancy! How about a girl this time? The “Ultimate Welcome Home.”. I’ve said it before and I&...

Sea of Grace: Our Adoption Journey. Wednesday, January 21, 2015. Lily flies South Ya'll! It was time to introduce Lily to the South!

Lily happily played on her Nabi with her "Ba Ba". It was a beautiful, smooth flight and we actually arrived 50 minutes early. The winds were with us :). Lily and Noah at DFW baggage claim.

I had amazing intentions to write in this blog once a week and I am still struggling in my time management! I really will get there! But I have these little monkeys that pull on my leg and climb up my back and sometimes they restrain me with ropes and tape! Ok So, I lied, again. I'm sorry! Something I so often lack! His message was incredible! The second story is...

Sea of Grace: Our Adoption Journey. Sunday, July 20, 2014. I’ve mentioned writing her story in previous blogs. But to be quite honest, there is so much awesome detail that its hard for my brain to wrap around it! Dates are so significant aren’t they? But, let me save that to later and start at the beginning. It is clear that Jake is a mini-Dale ;). Three years later, Noah came along all on his own. We were beyond grateful and thrilled to be blessed with our boys. 8220;God Winks”. Our flight was cancelled!
