I have been a bad blogger... Introducing Hailey


Well, I am really behind in my blogging! Been spending too much time on Facebook posts instead, I guess. It has been fun to go back and read old posts. Some of the funny things that Susie said when she was a toddler I cannot remember, but I am glad that I wrote it down here! It is amazing how fast time flies by. I am going to try and keep up with this again! So much has changed in the last several years. We are no longer on YL staff, but we continue to serve on Committee. All our YL kids graduated last year so we are no longer leading campaigners either. We have acquired one more child along the way! Hailey was one of my YL girls. I have known her since she was a freshman in high school. Even though we haven't "officially" adopted her we consider her our daughter. She moved in with us almost two years ago and we are so blessed to have her in our lives. It feels like she has always been here. To watch her grow in Christ into the young woman she is today has been so neat to see. I know, I know, that sounds so cliche and cheesy! But, it is true, she is beautiful person inside and out, we love her and are thankful that God gave us the opportunity to "parent" her. We could not have asked for a better big sister for Susie and Luke. She graduated high school last year and is now working part time and taking a full load of classes at a community college. She hopes to transfer in the next couple of years and study nursing. She will make a great nurse!
