The Wonderful Years!

I woke up this morning. Watched the sunrise. The same activity as I do everyday.
Today was different, though. I walked into Tanner's bedroom, sat down next to him as he slept and whispered, "It's time to get up, Angel..."
That's when I realized it. 3 years ago today, I landed in his birth country, excited and nervous. The past three years have been definitely a learning experience! Wonderful. Exciting! I wouldn't change one second of it!
Tanner is certainly growing up. He's such the little man. Such a comedian! Ya just never know what's going to come out of his little mouth!

Updated Photo's!

Out of the Mouth of Babes...

Last night, while driving home, I was telling Tanner of all the things I had to accomplish for that night. This was our conversation:

Me: I have so many things to do tonite, Tanner. Cook supper, get your clothes ready for your Christmas program tomorrow night, give you a bath and pick up the kitchen and living room....

Tanner: Momma? Where's my phone?

Me: hmmm, I don't know, Tanner...

Tanner: Where's your phone Momma?

Me: It's right here...why, son?

Tanner: I need to call Jesus to help you...

---My heart melted...---


That absolutely made my whole night...Goodness, I don't think I could love that little boy more!

Happy Birthday, My Little Man!

I had all these plans of waking up before him, this morning, taking his picture at the exact time he was born, singing Happy Birthday as he woke up. Man, was I fooled. Instead, I woke up to his sweet little voice saying, "I just come to check on you, Mom. It's my Birthday!" So, at 4:45, I sang Happy Birthday to him over and over again before talking him into going back to 'rest'.

I can't believe how time has flown by. 3 years ago today...6:10am My precious little baby was born into the world. He's not a baby anymore--if you ask him, Momma is the ONLY one allowed to call him a 'baby'...otherwise he demands that he's a BIG BOY! The only remnants of him being a baby is when he sleeps, he still balls his little hands up in fists...i love that....

At the moment, I don't have any 3rd Birthday pics, but I was looking through all my pictures of him this morning. I found this picture--it's his 1st birthday! He came to see Momma at work! He had only been home for almost 2 months...Gosh, He's growing up! But grows more precious with each day...



So, today, My baby boy, it's your 3rd Birthday! You're growing up to be such a smart, sweet, loving BIG BOY...Momma loves you with all her heart!

it's been forever!!

please forgive...life has flown by...WOW!
I looked at the calendar, then quickly at my watch this morning. It's been 2 years...TWO YEARS since i arrived in Vietnam...
Where has the time gone?
Then, I signed in this morning ( it took me awhile, i had forgotten my email address!) and saw I hadn't posted since April! Sorry....
But, I have some pictures since then...
See how my little man has grown!!

Happy Easter!

I've been thinking alot about Easter, lately, and the meaning of it. It always leads me back to the night I was matched to Tanner:

God sent his ONLY son, to die on the cross for us...
Could I do the same, if I was in that position?
Could I send Tanner, for you?
The answer, at least for me, is a solid N-O!!!

We have a most selfless God, a loving God!

God Bless and I hope everyone has a wonderful Easter!
