The kids' @Minted valentines just arrived - they have some really fun options for tweens and teens! You can check out all of their options here: http://bit.ly/yayminted Heading home after 3 fun days in NYC. I had a big meeting for my book the first day, and then spent the rest of my time apparently eating my way through the city. I got to see some dear local friends and my nephew, and also hang with some other friends who were in town. I toured General Seminary and felt the Lord call me to go . . .

Baby Fat | On Thursdays I post from the vault. This post is from June 2009.
On Thursdays I post from the vault. This post is from June 2009. Parenting a newborn is hard. One major plus about adopting is that you aren't simultaneously dealing with the ego blow of having your body morphed beyond recognition after a pregnancy. I truly believe that the weight gain aspect is one of the unmentioned curses of childbearing. Your world is already being rocked with a crying baby, no sleep, breastfeeding woes, and an end to freedom as you know. Let's tack on top of that the . . .
Wednesday’s Child: Breanna
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. Perhaps their stories will inspire you to consider opening your home to a child needing a family. For more information and to . . .

My poor, obese son who can’t go to kindergarten | On Thursdays I post from the vault. This post is from June 2009.
On Thursdays I post from the vault. This post is from June 2009. Jafta just had his preschool graduation last week. I was a little cynical about the whole thing, because he's not really "graduating" to anything, except for another year of the same. But his preschool has all the kids in the class participate in the ceremony, since it is the last year for some. I was a little annoyed at all of the obligations involved and thought it seemed a little superfluous for our family. Plus I just wanted . . .
