The rest of the list…

Today I’ll finish off the rest of the list for you!!

The Scott Household asked…How did you start the "ball rolling" towards adoption? You may have answered this already somewhere else and I will try to go back tomorrow and look around some more...
If you HAVE already answered this, here's another question:
Why did you start blogging and has it changed your life? If so, how?
And another one:
What's with all the mud on your kids? I love it! :) Okay, I probably wouldn't like it so much if I were in your shoes and honestly, I don't like it on my own shoes...if I'm in barefeet however...

That whole “ball rolling towards adoption” question is loaded!  We started out in foster care.  Did that for while, put our home study & name in with quite a few agencies, had our hearts broken & finally adopted.  How’s that for a whirlwind in a nutshell!

Why I started blogging… well.  I started reading one blog.  Liked it.  Decided that I wanted this kind of creative outlet & attachment to the outside world.  Plus, I hoped that my testimony would encourage someone else.  And it would give meaning to having endured it all.

About the mud.  No comment. :)

Amy B @ Our Daily Blessing...Life asked… Okay my question..how did you pick your beautiful bog background..I LOVE it.

I saw a link on mommaof4wife2r @ A Thorn Among Roses blog, to Blogalicious Designs.  I saw that they had some pre-made designs they offered at that time for a discounted price (for custom designs)  I really liked this one.  I love flowers, and the colors! I asked them about it and they were wonderful to work with!  So if you want a custom blog design, may I recommend Blogalicious Designs!

Holly @ One Day at a Time asked…When do you find the time to blog?

Well, if it was about having time I wouldn’t do it.  I choose to do it.  I do it for me.  I do it for fun!  I do it to avoid the piles of laundry and the mound of dishes!  I don’t have time!  I make it!

Amy @ The Fullness of Life asked… Question--if you could only eat one thing every day what would it be?

Wow, wouldn't that be boring to have to eat the same thing day in and day out.  Like the children of Israel in the wilderness!  If coffee is a food, I’d choose it.  If it is not a food, I’d choose, pasta!

last one peoples….

Sarah @ Flying Kites asked…How do you find time to do devotions? I struggle with 1 kid - can't imagine 6!

Get up before they do.  That’s the magic formula!

Hope you all enjoyed that!  If you have more questions go ahead and leave them in the comment box and I’ll answer them in 6 months or so!! :)

Love you all!!

Love the way you answered the time question. Mom's need to make time for things that enrich their soul in some way.
