I am a 30 something year old mom of five precious boys and two sweet girls. Five of our children are here with us and two are in the arms of Jesus. Our sweet baby girl Hope was diagnosed with Dystrophic Epdermolysis Bullosa and our youngest son came to us through adoption, our youngest daughter through foster care, and I've recently been diagnosed with malignant melanoma the Lord has shown us just how Faithful He is. We will continue to Journey and follow Him where ever He leads. We feel very blessed that God chose us to be the parents of each of our kids, and we look forward to what He has in store for us in foster care!
We live in a big agricultural area and each year we anxiously await the Albion Area Fair! This year was it's 65th year! We had fun seeing animals, eating greasy food, watching the parade, but the boys' favorite part was THE TRACTORS!
Wow-you brought back a flood of memories for me. (hubby said I should tell you). I was an FFA State Officer in 2001-2002 and one of the other officers was from the Albion FFA. It's a name I never heard of until I met him and never thought I'd hear again, since that is the whole other side of the state! (okay a little exageration). Anyway, he used to talk about the Albion fair and said it was big compared to some of ours. It looks like you had alot of fun! I am determined that if we ever get close to Pittsburg, that I will look you up and meet you! I absolutely love you super cute kids and your honesty and love for the Lord. Blessings and thanks for sharing!
Go ahead and mention my child, The one that died, you know. Don't worry about hurting me further. The depth of my pain doesn't show. Don't worry about making me cry. I'm already crying inside. Help me to heal by releasing The tears that I try to hide. I'm hurt when you just keep silent, Pretending she didn't exist. I'd rather you mention my child, Knowing that she has been missed. You asked me how I was doing. I say "pretty good" or "fine". But healing is something ongoing I feel it will take a lifetime. ~ Elizabeth Dent ~
