Do you remember where you were?

10 years ago.....I cannot believe it has been ten years ago that our country was attacked. I remember where I was. I was sitting in David Talley's classroom at Bethel, a junior in high school. Crazy how time flies. I remember watching t.v., and watching smoke coming from the buildings, wondering what it all meant and was going to mean for our country. I watched the towers fall as I am sure you did. A day in history that has imprinted our hearts and minds forever. I pray that this weekend we can remember....

Love You More: The Divine Surprise of Adopting My Daughter by Jennifer Grant

Love you More by Jennifer Grant is the author's personal journey through the adoption process. She tells her story from before the adoption process until the end, when she and her husband bring their daughter, Mia, home from Guatemala, and even the years following. Jennifer has three biological children and feels a calling to adopt. This is a precious story of real life!

It took me until about half way through to really get into the book. I really appreciated the part of the book where Grant writes about adoption not being for everyone. Also, I found the section about unethical adoptions, eye opening. What I love is that while reading this you can see Jennifer Grant's heart and her love for her children. She shares personal moments and personal feelings with the readers, which I appreciate. It helped me, the reader, see a clear and beautiful picture of adoption, and helped me understand adoption better. She also helped me see an adoptive mother's heart. It was also great to see the Grant's trust the Lord and to see Him always faithful! Excellent book that challenges presuppositions about adoption! I would recommend this to anyone! But, while recommending I will also warn that parts were hard to push through and were slow reading for me, but the end was worth it. 4 out of 5 stars.

Booksneeze provided me with this book in exchange for an honest review.

Boogie Wipes Review

Well, I finally received my Boogie Wipes....just in time! All three of my boys have had a cough and Beau has had a bit of a runny nose. I like the wipes! I mean honestly I think they work about the same as any wet wipe would except they are much softer. But, the wipes definitely get the dry boogies off of my baby's face:) He does not really like to have his face or nose wiped, so the wipes are nice because I do not have to wipe his nose ten times to get it clean! They are thick and soft and if you have a coupon, then worth the money during the "snotty season". I think toddlers will appreciate the softness of the wipe instead of Kleenex. The wipes also come scented!

All in all I give Boogie Wipes a 4 out of 5 stars:)

School

My boys have started "school". Jackson is in a 4K program, 3 days a week, and Baylor goes to mother's morning out 1 day a week. They both love it! Baylor wanted to go to "school" like Jackson:) They are precious brothers! Baylor misses his big brother when he is gone, and Beau just can't play as well!

Jackson loves to play with his friends and loves to learn! I am so proud of my boys! Here are a few pictures from the first day!

They crack me up!
