So, There's This Guy....

So, there's this guy that stole my heart. In my eyes, he's beyond handsome. And ever so charming. He can be rather hilarious. He's definitely a keeper. In fact, 21 years and counting. 5 kids & 4 grandkids later. 

                                  

                              

There's been some for better and for worse
There's been some in sickness and in health.
There's been some for richer or for poorer. 



Plus some. For sure. But everything we've experienced, the rough times and the smooth times, have enriched our marriage for the good. Through the grace of God, we are a couple. And for that, I'm grateful.  

You, Mr. Langston, still make my heart go pitter-pat.
Happy 21st Anniversary to my very best friend.
I love you so very much. 

Could There Possibly Be A Reason For An Update?

And the abandoned blog gets revived. Why, you ask? Because maybe, just maybe, we have some news to share. 

We've been quiet. But, that doesn't mean God has been. We've been waiting. But, that doesn't mean God has been. Our journey has seemed so very long to us. But, not to Him. He has been changing us and preparing our hearts through every single "No" we've heard along the way. We've answered His call with a resounding "YES", and He is faithful. Oh, so very faithful. 

In the midst of our waiting & wondering, growing & changing, praying & crying, He was preparing a young woman's heart to also say "Yes". Yes to the life growing in her womb. Yes to the family who she would choose to raise her baby. 

The tears are still flowing, but they are sweet tears this time. Our "Yes" has come. We will be welcoming a precious baby boy into our family very, very soon. The due date is May 11,  our 22nd anniversary, but he could arrive any day now. 

Please remember us in your prayers.  And if you would consider helping us bring him home, the best way at this point is through THIS link. Thank you! 

Lamentations 3:22-23 (NIV)

 Because of the Lord’s great love

  we are not consumed,
   for his compassions never fail.

   They are new every morning;
   great is your faithfulness.
