Adoption From Russia: October 2010
http://franks3goingon4.blogspot.com/2010_10_01_archive.html
3 Kids Became 4! Wednesday, October 27, 2010. Check Out This Video (and then read Crazy Love). I've decided that every now and then, I need to talk about the books that have truly changed the way I view life and God's plan for me in this life. Francis Chan's book, "Crazy Love" is incredible! I strongly encourage you to check it out. Not a huge expense or time commitment, just amazing :0). Links to this post. Sunday, October 24, 2010. I Love My Girls! Posed for a few pics together, which is very rare.

scmountaingirl: A Little More on Attachment
http://scmountaingirl.blogspot.com/2011/03/little-more-on-attachment.html
Wednesday, March 16, 2011. A Little More on Attachment. I feel like I had to cut the previous post short due to time, but at least these coffee shop posts are coming out. Things that have helped with attachment with M:. The "Beyond Consequences" book and reading FB posts from Heather Forbes. Skin to skin contact. Singing. M loves to be sung to. Remembering that it's my job to help M understand that she is safe. Positive reinforcement, over and over again. Picking her up when she asks with arms up. Wonder...

The Jerger Journey: February 2009
http://thejergerjourney.blogspot.com/2009_02_01_archive.html
The Lord is good to those whose hope is in him, to the one who seeks him." Lamentations 3:25. Wednesday, February 11, 2009. I just wanted to touch on our AWANA games. Each year kids from AWANA programs at various churches get together to compete in a sort of Olympics. The games are silly for the most part.bean bag on the head, crab walking, volleying a balloon.you get the point. Although the games are silly, some of us take them very seriously! Yes, I am one of those moms! I was a little horse afterward ...

The Jerger Journey: June 2009
http://thejergerjourney.blogspot.com/2009_06_01_archive.html
The Lord is good to those whose hope is in him, to the one who seeks him." Lamentations 3:25. Tuesday, June 23, 2009. Going into the ceremony, I knew they would sing One Small Voice. The graduates always sing this song and I cry every year. I told him, (he's a bit of a ham on the stage) to please sing out so I could hear his voice during that song. He did so well during all of his songs, only "zoning" into Flip's World at one point during the Florida Alphabet. Like Father, Like Son. So, I frantically cal...

The Lord is good to those whose hope is in him, to the one who seeks him." Lamentations 3:25. Tuesday, August 11, 2009. Where did the summer go?

The Lord is good to those whose hope is in him, to the one who seeks him." Lamentations 3:25. Wednesday, July 29, 2009. Le Tour de France. The City of Lights. We drove into Paris in the late afternoon. I was relieved to see our hotel was once again beautiful. We would be staying four nights. After quickly checking in, we reloaded into the bus for a farew.

The Lord is good to those whose hope is in him, to the one who seeks him." Lamentations 3:25. Wednesday, April 15, 2009. I wanted to sit and reflect over this time but they say a picture is worth a thousand words. November 2007: Our first meeting. Ellie is skeptical and afraid but allows me to hold her. We coax a few smiles from her and discover that the way to her heart is through her feet. (smile). April 12,2009 Mommy's little girl. To threaten him into submission and this morning was no different....

http://franks3goingon4.blogspot.com/2011/08/dasvidaniya-adoption-paperwork.html
3 Kids Became 4! Tuesday, August 30, 2011. Last week, we completed our court proceedings for Caleb's readoption and finally said dasvidaniya to ALL paperwork regarding C's adoption. NO MORE. EVER! It was so special to have them with us, and to know that this time, C is already ours :0) The thought made me downright giddy! Obviously my feelings were quite evident, because Caleb just beamed lovingly at me the entire time (sooooo sweet. just melted my heart! The best treat for Mommy and Daddy? I am a happy,...
