We've Got Chuck!

This is our new Havanese puppy, Chuck.

We call him that because it looks like he's wearing white sneakers on all four paws. Also, he is the same color as Dan's favorite shoes - Chuck Taylor All Stars.

(And I think of it secretly as a nick name for Charles Dickens, who owned a Havanese).

Here he is with Jesse. Doesn't he look like a Muppet dog?

An Evening in the Park

After school on Friday we loaded up and went to Madison Park in Quincy.

Awards Night!

These are the events that remind a Mom that no matter what else she does in life, she's already contributing something beautiful to the world. Jesse received a certificate for A Honor Roll and a medal for Scripture Saver, which means he memorized all his assigned verses for the school year.

Study Spot

I went to the Quincy University library today and this is the view from the literature section window. Inspiring!

Claire's Story

I am working on Claire's fundraising page for the March of Dimes event March for Babies. We've participated every year since Claire was born, except last year because I was pregnant with Macy.

A passionate nurse was the first to tell us about all that the March of Dimes has done for premature babies, and all babies, in the world. Ever heard that women who want to have children should increase their folic acid intake? The March of Dimes spent years pushing that public service campaign and now it is almost common knowledge. The Neonatal Intensive Care Unit is also an invention of the March of Dimes.

We give all thanks to God for Claire's miraculous healing, but we are sure that He used the March of Dimes along the way!

I'm reactivating this blog. Dan bought me a Blackberry smart phone and I can send blog posts automatically from it! What is this crazy world coming to? But I love it. I'll try it soon...as soon as I can figure out how!
