Well, I'm just a little too excited about it being November. I know, I know. For a lot of people, it means the start of Christmas shopping. But this year, for me, it's about turning over a new leaf, and I'm not talking about the ones in our yard.
I'm praying about some changes to come in our lives, and I'm taking on this whole, "If I believe it, I can achieve it" motto. Isn't faith one of the most amazing things we can have? It's something that, when you have it, you don't even have to SAY you have it because people can just tell you have it. But I'm so excited about it that I just want to share it! God already had this plan for us when he blessed us with Liam. He made us perfect in His eyes. Just because we didn't know to prepare for it doesn't mean it isn't more than we can handle.
A dear friend said to me recently, in a discussion about Liam's medical history and condition, "I can't imagine two better parents for Liam than you and William."
It was really in that moment that I realized, if everyone else sees our strength, then I need to see it as well.
And when I think, that God, His Son not sparing;
Sent Him to die, I scarce can take it in;
That on the Cross, my burden gladly bearing,
He bled and died to take away my sin.
Then sings my soul, My Saviour God, to Thee,
How great Thou art, How great Thou art.




“When you have come to the edge Of all light that you know and are about to drop off into the darkness of the unknown, Faith is knowing one of two things will happen: There will be something solid to stand on or You will be taught to fly”
