Healthy,recovered, deaf,limited,missing something





If any of these precious boys belong to you, email me. They have all waited long enough. One boy has no special need, one boy has had surgery to repair a need, one boy will need a wheel chair his whole life, one boy is missing his ear, and the other boy is deaf. All these needs sound scary huh? But when interviewed these boys gave the following info, "I want to be a superhero, I want to be an artist, I want to own a company, I want to go to school with kids my age, I want a dad and mom".  All these guys drew what they thought having a mom would look like....they may never know.

Oldie But Goodie



Classic...........act shocked to pretend innocence!! They loved playing right in the floor together here. Notice the difference in leg sizes. Darling daughter is built like a small brick, our boy is LANKY! These two are only 10 months apart. So sweet. 
 

Catfood

This is a cat eating "cat food" in China. Looks a bit like rice, lean turkey, green veggie of some sort, and a some kind of broth.

Makes me hungry:)

He is waiting for adoption, born in 2010


I just don't think they get much cuter than this special little boy. If you would consider adopting him, email me, He lives in China and his special need is albinism, oh and he needs a mama, a daddy, a kitty and a doggie, some books, music, a doctor visit, some shots, some cutie pie clothes, a bunk bed, maybe a brother or sister, some noodles and rice, some watermelon and biscuits, a bunch of toy blocks, a cozy bed, a decent pair of sunglasses and some sunscreen, probably a a winter coat, some cowboy boots for sure, maybe a set of golf clubs of his own when he gets bigger, he needs a baseball and a jersey of his family's favorite pro team, he might want a four wheeler, a skate board, a basketball goal, a kite or two, bubbles for the bathtub, a towel with a hood on it, a visit  from Santa and the toothfairy, a hug from grandma and grandpa to take him fishing, he would do well with a doting aunt that lets him have sleepovers with his cousins in the summer, maybe a trip to the zoo and the mountains when he gets old enough, he might want to go to summer camp or join the band when he gets in middle school, and he might want to go to vacation Bible school, or go to the planetarium, he will probably want a tatoo when he gets older of some Chinese symbol, and maybe even want a pierced ear or worse, he might want a truck with big wheels, and the phone number to the cutest girl in school and he might want a big box of art supplies and some play dough................He's not getting any of this stuff without you!!  Or the knowledge that Jesus has loved him since the beginning of creation and that he means the world to a Savior who died to bring him into His very own family.

Ever asked yourself?

Here's something you can do too!!!






OK, background here. I have painted many, many rooms in the history of our family life. Let's just count them at 40+. But my greatest fear has always been tackling the kitchen cabinets. Our house is over 20 years old and the old kitchen was something like an "Honey Oak Cave".........sounds cute, but it was not! So with the help of Valspar primer and Valspar paint and some sanding, though not much, I single handedly redid my own cupboards. Took the greater part of a week, a cordless drill, some saw horses,  but totally less than one gallon of primer and one gallon of paint. The paint color I chose is a color called "Filoli Gold". It has the slightest tinge of yellow which went very well with all the other bright colors going on in our house. Hope you like the after as much as I do!
