Finding all of our Fish Sticks: Matching Grant
http://findingallourfishsticks.blogspot.com/2013/01/matching-grant.html
Thursday, January 24, 2013. During our adoption process, I wanted to give fund raising my best shot. At times it seemed overwhelming and honestly sometimes it felt like a waste of my time. My efforts included:. Selling farm eggs, produce and raw honey. Participating in 2 children's consignment sales. Hosting 2 garage sales. Opening an etsy shop to make t-shirts, handbags and head bands. Selling clothing on ebay. Selling furniture and household items on Craigslist. Selling our Lionel train set on ebay.

Finding all of our Fish Sticks: Mama Bears Have Reared Up
http://findingallourfishsticks.blogspot.com/2014/04/mama-bears-have-reared-up.html
Thursday, April 3, 2014. Mama Bears Have Reared Up. There has been so much to blog about lately regarding our adoption and one day I hope to sit down and write it all out for my boys and their story. Much of the details I have journaled but today is not a day to catch up on all that has transpired in the last month. Agreed to take on the entire adoptive community of families with their lawyer, a renowned adoption lawyer who specializes in cases like ours, to represent us and lead us in fighting to get ou...

With Every Heartbeat: December 2014
http://infertilemyrtleme.blogspot.com/2014_12_01_archive.html
Hope is the companion of power, and mother of success; for who so hopes strongly has within him the gift of miracles." - Samuel Smiles. Tuesday, December 23, 2014. In Which I Declare My Intentions. I have a confession to make, and really, it's not unexpected:. I'm DONE with being childless. Six (going on seven) years is six years far too long. I feel this way throughout the year but the holidays only exacerbate it. Thursday, December 18, 2014. Not So Holly Jolly. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). A place I can...

With Every Heartbeat: July 2014

Hope is the companion of power, and mother of success; for who so hopes strongly has within him the gift of miracles." - Samuel Smiles. Thursday, July 10, 2014. Twice an Auntie, Not Yet a Mom. Our second niece came into the world on Monday and she is gorgeous, lovely, delightful, perfect. And once again, she is not ours. I won't go into my feelings on the subject too much, in the event she were to ever randomly stumble upon this little space of mine, but what follows is the shortened version. A place I c...

me & my house: Eighteen Months!
http://theadertons.blogspot.com/2014/09/eighteen-months.html
How Do You Do It. Me and my house. Tuesday, September 23, 2014. The twinsies are Eighteen months! And me-oh-my have they changed since my last update on their first birthday. The past six months have flown by. Well, the past eighteen. Months have flown by. When the twins were newborns, I couldn't imagine myself writing those words! And now here we are - walking, running, and using a few words. Oh, how I wish I knew what I was saying! And there they'll be. sitting together in a cardboard house. However, r...

Memoirs for my children: Favorite posts
http://ruthmem.blogspot.com/p/favorite-posts.html
Memoirs for my children. Thoughts about the meaning and purpose of life, and simple stories about the way we live. How I met your father. Why I love the beach. A memory I had tried to repress. Remembering to say thank you. Yesterday was a glorious beach day. A tough morning (a bawdy tale of toilets). Memory Lane, furtively. What I would like. Letter to my daughters (begin series of 2). Good-bye girls (begin series here). Immanuel in the Details. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Peace about the big questions.
