The babbling of brooke. Whatever i want to say. Saturday, April 03, 2010. The first time we saw her picture. On April 5, 2007 we received a call from CHSFS (our agency) saying we had a referral. This is basically a "match". They said to get on our email and so we did, at the same time, from our offices. It said:. Hello Josh and Brooke,. Here is the referral information for Yenenesh!

The babbling of brooke. Whatever i want to say. Thursday, October 28, 2010. So We live in Virginia. The northern part very close to D.C. And we have for about a month now. Josh has taken a preaching minister position here, which is what brought us to the area. The church is loving, friendly, quirky, colorful, creative, transient, diverse, fun, active, and just pretty great all around. We have felt welcomed and made it feel at home. Hopefully we will make it to a tourist attraction before it gets too cold!

The babbling of brooke. Whatever i want to say. Wednesday, July 29, 2009. Summer has come and gone. Well, as you can see, I've been a little too busy to post anything on this blog! We have had a crazy but wonderful summer, mostly filled with youth group activities. Three highlights were:. My family got to go to Camp Highland again. Sophie enjoyed it even more than last year. It was a blast! Sophie had lots of fun with her friend Jack and all her "Big Friends" (the teenagers). Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

The babbling of brooke. Whatever i want to say. Tuesday, March 16, 2010. Being an idiot and being a parent. Sometimes I act like an idiot. I forget that my kid is just a person and any person can, make that WILL, mess up, especially when she has gone through an excessively crazy weekend. So, back to my post title, I spent the rest of the night basically being an idiot, except the good kind, just doing three-year-old stuff. We read Not Norman. I love being that kind of idiot parent. 12/13/06 Sophie is born.

The babbling of brooke. Whatever i want to say. Monday, January 04, 2010. This year has been a really busy one for us, but while many things have remained the same - we are both still working at Highland Church of Christ, Josh is in graduate school, we live in our same house, and we are still marveling at the joys of raising our daughter, Sophie - other things have changed. Playing at the house. Playing in her kitchen wearing her first real ponytail. Sleeping with her favorite stuffed animal Panda. Sophi...
