Life Lately
View this post on Instagram Last night we held a “Pandemic Prom” for our senior who missed out on here this year. I used my @nuuly subscription this month to order a bunch of fancy dresses that the girls picked out. (I will talk more about that in my stories.)

Dispatches from the OC | On Thursdays I post from the vault. This post is from August 2009.
On Thursdays I post from the vault. This post is from August 2009. We are hanging in Seattle for a few days.

Wednesday’s Child: Elijah
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.
