First day of high school for Karis and junior year for the twins. Between the cheer and ASB garb we are filled with school spirit over here! Jafta is gloating that he has another week. Hurricane Hillary update: the aftermath is a lot of unused water in jugs and our bathtubs.

Wednesday’s Child: 17-year-old Emilee wishes to be adopted before aging out of system this year
Every Wednesday I feature a child recently highlighted by a local Wednesday's Child newscast to share the stories of children from around the country who are waiting for a family. My hope is that this can broaden exposure for the children highlighted, but also serve as a reminder that these children represent thousands of children currently in the foster-care system.

LET’S TALK HOLIDAY MUSIC | ON THURSDAY’S I POST FROM THE VAULT. THIS POST IS FROM NOVEMBER 2011.

OCCUPY CHRISTMAS | ON THURSDAY’S I POST FROM THE VAULT. THIS POST IS FROM NOVEMBER 2011.
ON THURSDAY'S I POST FROM THE VAULT. THIS POST IS FROM NOVEMBER 2011. Well, folks, here I am again. At your service, poised and ready to take the fun out of another holiday! (Just kidding. Mostly.) Although, I AM planning on completely sitting out this Thanksgiving. My kids whine and complain ever year about the traditional Thanksgiving fare. I’m not really excited about cooking all day just to hear them complain about the food. You know what I hate? Whining. You know what else I . . .
