Growing - Our Family


We were three for so long. David and I married and we became four. Challenges-victories....struggles-bonding...heartache-healing. I got sick and Shadow came. He helped heal me physically and emotionally. He's my best furry buddy...we became 5.


Shilo got married Mele and we became 6. The excitement of a girl...finally!!! Someone for me to relate to...lol. They had a son in July. Ezie has made us 7. It's an amazing ride being Yaya!



Growing family...growing pains...growing into a new season of motherhood for me. I shared at Bonnie's place on my fall season and all the letting go.


He'll be on his third tour this year...with his band...letting his fly. Giving him wings. Growing.



Growing is hard, brings pain of stretching and joy of receiving the beautiful new.

Growing to entrust them all to Him and His care...hard stuff...Growing.
