Words of Wisdom

I read these three quotes on the Yahoo group I am a member of for families who adopted children from WuWie and want to share them with you:

"Be the change that you want to see in the world." -Mahatma Ghandi

"Do not follow where the path may lead; go instead, where there is no path and leave a trail."
-Anonymous

"We can do no great things, only small things with great love." -Mother Teresa

Kara's Special Day


This layout is not only to remember Kara's First Communion as a kind of "Dream Land Day." I am trying to learn how to cut figures from pictures. This one is not perfect, but I'm getting there. Some day, Kara, you will look at it and smile. Hopefully you will be saying, "My Nana made this for me."
Hugs and kisses,

Alex is a Big Boy Now


I almost forgot to post pictures of Alex in his big boy's bed. He is such a happy little boy, almost always smiling. As soon as he saw his new bed, he jumped right in and made himself at home. I had to include the picture of him with the alligator Papa brought back for him from Florida. Boys love the strangest things! Alex, you have the face of such a happy little boy.
Hugs and kisses,

A Great Quote

I have a friend who sent me this quote she read some where. I want to share it with you. I know it won't mean much to you now, but I hope someday all four of you will read it and think deeply about each phrase. These four short phrases can form the way you choose to live your lives.


ONLY AS HIGH AS I REACH...CAN I GROW.....
ONLY AS FAR AS I SEEK....CAN I GO...............
ONLY AS DEEP AS I LOOK....CAN I SEE........
ONLY AS MUCH AS I DREAM.....CAN I BE..

Hugs and kisses,
