A Small Still Voice: July 2012
http://eightmortons.blogspot.com/2012_07_01_archive.html
Friday, July 27, 2012. Quick matching grant for the Rogers! Family is on their way to finally go meet Bernadette and Mason! There is a matching $450 grant opening up tonight for the Rogers! It will run through midnight, August 1st, so anything you can donate will be doubled. They still need about $3000 to be considered fully funded, and it would be so awesome to be able to tell them to relax, enjoy their new son and daughter, and not to worry about how they pay for the remainder of their expenses! I foun...

Our Adoption Story: March 2012
http://findingourlittleone.blogspot.com/2012_03_01_archive.html
Friday, March 30, 2012. First up is the Love Multiplied iPad3 Giveaway. Then, my friend, Julia started the Mulligan Stew. A giveaway to help too many families and kids to list. Julia began the giveaway on March 9th. I have waited patiently for payday to roll back around (we're on a once a month pay schedule) and am so excited to be able to participate in the Mulligan Stew, today! I have witnessed a miracle happen over on Julia's blog as around $30,000 has come in since March 9th! Happening. We've tal...

A Small Still Voice: March 2012
http://eightmortons.blogspot.com/2012_03_01_archive.html
Saturday, March 31, 2012. Dad has been making a huge pot of brunswick stew for over 30 years. It's an annual tradition that he and his brother both do. We used my uncle's pot this time since it's bigger than Dad's 25 gallon pot. Yes, they are serious about their stew! The rain stopped, the sun came out, and people start showing up to the yard sale! My wonderful mother in law (my second mom) made some cakes and cookies, and they were gone quick! Her lemon pound cake, oh my goodness! Friday, March 30, 2012.

A Small Still Voice: So what if it's another life?
http://eightmortons.blogspot.com/2012/11/so-what-if-its-another-life.html
Friday, November 30, 2012. So what if it's another life? It's one thing to honestly (if mistakenly) believe that a baby isn't a baby until a certain age. That's bad enough, and something I just don't get. If you get pregnant, there's only one choice of what you will give birth to. It will be a baby, a human child, no other options that I've ever heard of. Have you ever asked a pregnant woman what she's going to have? Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). So what if its another life? A Christmas Sled Upcycle.

A Small Still Voice: My two favorite RR kids
http://eightmortons.blogspot.com/2012/10/my-two-favorite-rr-kids.html
Wednesday, October 3, 2012. My two favorite RR kids. Not long after I did this blog post (like within a couple of hours! Dayna showed up on My Family Found Me! So happy for her family! It takes a while for a child to show up on that part of the website, so that means her family has been working on this for probably a few weeks. I am just tickled to death, and if her family does a blog, I will be sure and link to it so we can all follow her journey home and help out with fundraisers! Spend their lives in ...

A Small Still Voice: Details on Duncan
http://eightmortons.blogspot.com/2012/03/details-on-duncan.html
Thursday, March 22, 2012. I hadn't changed the name of our blog from eight down to seven mortons, because someone was missing! God knew that someone was Duncan. He will be such a blessing to our family. With the support of his brothers and sisters (we'll now have three boys and three girls! He will be able to build his confidence, see that his physical limitations have nothing to do with how much he is loved, and have opportunities he has only dreamed of. Please keep us in your prayers! Im sure youll kee...

A Small Still Voice: A Life Worth Living
http://eightmortons.blogspot.com/2012/09/a-life-worth-living.html
Thursday, September 13, 2012. A Life Worth Living. Let's just say it would be a good thing you were where you were. Mom and Sally were horrifed at first that they had done this, but couldn't help but laugh at the thought. Sally tried to scold Josh and his friend, but she was laughing so hard she couldn't hardly do it. What will your legacy be? What will they say about you at your funeral? Will your family have the comfort Sally's family has, of knowing she is truly at peace and without pain? September 13...

Monday, April 9, 2012. Please keep our families in your prayers as we grieve over this loss, because that is truly what it is to us. We had two more sons, and now they are lost to us.

A Small Still Voice: August 2012
http://eightmortons.blogspot.com/2012_08_01_archive.html
Friday, August 24, 2012. Who is your emotional toilet? I started back to school this week (for about the 14th time), but this time I have no excuses for not finishing up my degree. I'm working on my associate's in Education Assisting, and hope to continue on for a teaching degree in special education. My best friend Kristin. Umm, if she's still my friend after I've called her a toilet, that is. I think she'll be cool with it though. Most of the time I'm hers too, so it should even out! Appreciate your fr...
