God is so amazing… If I do say so myself. And He has blessed our family so abundantly! This past Friday my dad was promoted to Colonel. =) It was a fairly small ceremony but there were a couple things that did really make it special. One, that God has brought my father this far […]

So I really do have to apologize to all of y’all who keep checking my blog only to find nothing new. I have been EXTREMELY (should I make that bigger?) busy! So, I will “try” to give you a short update and then over the next week or so give you more detailed blog posts

I have to say… this post is long over due. I should have written it a week ago. As small children, we all learn certain things very quickly. Like how to say, “NO!” or, “Mine!”. And somehow, the majority of us could throw expert temper tantrums without even one lesson! Now I say that lightly,
