One of the many benefits of Home Schooling is that we can take little mini vacations with Grandma and Granddaddy! Of course Scott has to work, but then again, we all wouldn't fit in the camper if he came! Too bad Dad!! LOL  |

| After 2 attempts at a dairy-gluten-egg-free cake, I finally just took the pieces and smushed them together and iced the mound! It looked like a cheese ball, but it passed the requirements of what her allergy Dr told me to avoid! |

| Such a sweet, happy girl!! |
WOW!! What a year it has been! It's hard to believe she is one! When I think of God's grace for her, and for us, I am overwhelmed with gratitude for His love for His children. His word says:"I will not leave you as orphans; I will come to you."John 14:18Sophie was without a family for two days in the hospital. The nurses had compassion for her, and named her "Bella". When our adoption agency told them that she had a family waiting for her, they changed the name card on her bassinet to the name we had prayed over for so long! |
