My Poor Baby!!!!

Siah had a fall during his basketball practice Sunday night. But I did not take him to the hospital until yesterday ,after his foot and toes turned black. We thought it was just a sprain. He fractured some of the small bones in his foot.

Before the cast... ( He was worried it was going to hurt, in this picture.)

And after....

This is the first cast out of our children. Please pray this will be the last!!! He had his finger broken when he was in the 2nd grade by a bully, but they only put a splint on it.

Please leave Josiah a message to help make him feel better! He loves to read my messages. Thanks!

Take care of it and don't force anything until you feel ready,O.K. Doctor Nana's orders. Pawpaw says to put a polka dot thong on to match it. Ha!Ha!(That's a ppaw and Siah joke, long going, right.)
Maybe Dad will let you sit on the side-line at the bball games and teach you how to coach. We love you, Lots!!!; December 2, 2008 at 6:05 PM

The Christmas outfit came from Ebay. I just got an email from her the other day and noticed she still has some. I think I got it in an auction so I only paid like 20.00 for it. She sells on Etsy too.

Here is a link to her stuff.

Our Sam broke his foot spying at a bonfire on his sister! We didn't take him to the ER until a day later when it was so swollen. Go easy on mom and don't make her feel bad! :)
I sure hope you feel better soon.; December 5, 2008 at 1:22 PM

Verses that really spoke to me and helped me get through our adoptions.

(John 14:18) " I will not leave you as orphans, I will come to you."

(Isaiah 43:5-6) "Do not be afraid, for I am with you,
I will bring your children from the west. Bring my sons from afar and my daughters from the ends of the earth."

(Proverbs 25:25) "As cold water is to a thirsty soul : so is good
news from a far country."

(Matthew 6:25-34) The do not worry chapter.
This is the chapter that told me we would adopt again and the
baby girl woud be named Lily (Lilee). "The lilies of the field".
This is a great reminder of why we should not worry, God will take care of his people!

(Psalms 82: 3-4) "Defend the cause of the weak and the fatherless; maintain the rights of the poor and oppressed. Resue the weak and neady; deliver them from the hand of the wicked."

(Psalms 68: 5) "A father to the fatherless, a defender of widows, is God in his holy dwelling."

(Deuteronomy 10:18) " He defends the cause of the fatherless and the widow and loves the alien, giving them food and clothing."

(Philippians 4:13) "I can do all things through him who gives me strength."

(Philippians 4:6-7) " Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present
your request to God. And the peace of God,which transcends all understanding will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus."

(Romans 8:28) " And we know that all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose."

(James 1:27) "Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after the orphans and widows in their destress, and to keep oneself from being polluted from by the world."
