We adopted Lukas in August of 2006 from Vietnam. He is such an incredible blessing! “A Father to the fatherless, a defender of widows, is God in His holy dwelling, God sets the lonely in families…” -Psalm 68:5-6aDaniel and Jamiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04622163176333684043noreply@blogger.comBlogger891100tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-282815684116006369.post-88908603678588383572010-06-09T21:51:00.003-05:002010-06-09T22:07:12.683-05:00

I've been doing Beth Moore's Bible Study - Living Beyond Yourself Exploring the Fruit of the Spirit.I've got to admit now that Daniel is pretty much recovered from his surgery I am getting very antsy about Sweet Baby #2. I am just so ready to get matched with a birthmom and be able to minister to her, plus know that we have a baby coming.Today's lesson really spoke to me. It has also been ironic

Probably too long...It took me a while to be able to post after our failed adoption, but I'll attempt to do a little update.Daniel had surgery at the beginning of the month. Most people know that Daniel was shot in between the eyes at point blank range when he was 15. He had developed a mucuocele (sp) that needed to be taken care of. The surgery lasted 11 1/2 hours. I compared the time to the

And if you are ever in our town you need to stop by and have Luke do one of his concerts! I promise it will brighten you day. He has three songs - Here I am to Worship, Mighty to Save and You Never Let Go. I love listening to my little boy praise the Lord! Luke got a toy microphone for Valentine's Day and he told me I needed to buy him a microphone stand. :) He's my little rockstar!

I wasn't given the ability to conceive a child in my womb, but God blessed me with love for children and that love grows in my heart just like a child grows in his/her mothers womb.On Christmas Day as we were returning to Catoosa from my grandparents house we got the call we had been waiting ten months to receive. A birth mom had chosen us to parent her daughter that she had given birth to that

It's been a long time. Kori has been after me for a Thanksgiving update - so here you go Kori and I'll throw in Christmas Parade and Luke's school Christmas Program. We spent 10 days out of town around Thanksgiving. We had a 3 day adoption workshop to attend in Tulsa and decided it wasn't worth the gas money to come home and turn around to go back for Thanksgiving. Luke and I made turkey cupcakes

We've had a busy couple of weeks. Our church did the drama "Heaven's Gates Hell's Flames" October 25-27. A couple came in on Friday October 23. We spent that evening transforming our sanctuary into heaven and hell. On Saturday we finished decorating and got our parts. I played a young old woman if that makes sense. An older woman died of a heart attack and we switched spots in the dark and I woke

Luke turned 4 on Friday! He was so excited. It was so neat. His preschool makes a big deal out of all the kids birthdays. He wanted to take OU cookies so we did just that. He got to wear a birthday crown and got a present. His teacher took his picture with me and Daniel for the book they make of the years events. He had a really good time.On Friday night Nana, Papa, Aunt Jen and Granny came to

This is for you Kori!I haven't updated since Luke's 1st day of school, so honestly I can't remember everything that has gone on.On Luke's 1st day of school by himself they made frog hats. It was pretty cute watching the kids come out with their frog hats on.My boy loves his trains. His room is generally a train lovers paradise. Occasionally he gets creative and will take his track apart to make a

Luke had a great first day of preschool. He has been so excited to go. He was ready to go from the moment he woke up this morning.He looked pretty handsome too, if I do say so myself! :)Such a big boy carrying his backpack! This picture is actually after we were leaving. Today the parents went with the kids. He definitely didn't stick close to us at all. When it was time for the parent meeting he

Three years ago today, the most precious boy in the world officially became our son! We love this little guy so very much and feel so priviledged to be his parents. We celebrated tonight by going out to dinner and with cupcakes and ice cream!Luke's present this year was a t-shirt from Ha Long Bay. He is anxious to wear it. Luke had an eventful morning - He cut his hair. Aunt Jen says every kid

So Nana, Papa and Jen can see our cute little man...Lukas was the ring bearer today in Kori and Trevor's wedding. He did so good. I was wondering last night if he was going to walk down the aisle. Between bribery and a good talking too he did great! Daniel really gave it to him before bed last night. They kept saying "Just smile and walk down the aisle". I went in Luke's bedroom to check on him

After our incredibly busy summer we felt like we needed a little family time so we headed to OKC for a little mini vacation. On Thursday night we went to Incredible Pizza for dinner. Luke had a blast playing the games.His favorite part was driving the go karts with his daddy. They won first place! He even has a ribbon to prove it and he is very proud of it. After dinner we went to the movies and

This last week Daniel was speaking in Poteau so he dropped me and Luke off in Tulsa on his way there. We got Aunt Jen and headed to Granny's house. Luke wanted to swing right when he got there and Ryan and Makayla were happy to oblige him. :) On this trip all of the cousins were at Granny's! That doesn't happen very often - usually only at Thanksgiving and Christmas. We had lots of fun together.

Our fingerprint approval/background checks came in yesterday!!! After five months of waiting and being fingerprinted three times we are thrilled! I mailed it to the social worker yesterday and as soon as she gets it our homestudy is finished. I am so excited!Last Wednesday after church we did some fireworks with some friends. Our friend has Luke addicted. He had fun with sparklers, but was loving

We got back Friday from a great week at camp. We took our kids this last week and we had a blast! I do have to admit though that by the end of the week I was wondering what in the world was I thinking taking my 3 year old to 4 weeks of camp. Luke made lots of friends this week. They had fun running around the cafeteria. Here they are watching cartoons on the big TV in the cafeteria.They dumped a

All the weeks of camp have taken their toll on my sweet boy. We went to Vietnam Heritage Weekend Friday night right after Luke had woken up from his nap. He was a pretty cranky boy and got in trouble for being rude to people. There were some really cool dragon dancers Friday night and it wasn't long after that that Luke got happy and had a great time playing with his friends.We don't get to see

We left bright and early - at 6:45 - Monday morning for State Teen Camp at Talihina, OK. Anyone that knows us very well knows that was quite a feat for us night owls. We generally take our kids to this camp, but we have outgrown the campground so now there will be two weeks of teen camp. Daniel is on the State Christian Education Board that puts on the camps so he had to go this week. Luke and I

This last week was our district camp. Daniel went to camp, but Luke and I took the week off and slept at home. We took care of errands. You know fun stuff like dr appts, vet and other stuff. We went to the evening services and Wednesday we hung out all afternoon! We took Luke's friend Silas with us on Wednesday. Luke and Silas played hide and seek with Daniel. It's pretty funny listening to 2

We got back yesterday from a great week at church camp! Daniel spoke at the Kiamichi Association District Camp. Another brag on Daniel moment - He did a really great job. A lot of students this week made decisions for the Lord! Praise God! Two of our boys went with us. Here is Luke, Josh and Elmo on the way to Wilburton. The camp was at Robbers Cave State Park - which is a LONG way from where we

First of all, I said I would update with pics of Luke with his skateboard at church - The little stinker hasn't wanted to take it to church. He still likes playing with it - he's just been cranky the last two weeks before Wednesday church. This past Sunday afternoon Daniel spoke at Catoosa's Bacc... so we got to spend the weekend with my parents and go to church with them on Sunday. Daniel did a

I can't believe it's been so long since I've updated. I think these first pictures are from February (a little bit old). Luke got a soccer goal set for Christmas. We played in the back yard with it and then went to the park. Luke gets to play soccer next spring and he is already super excited!At the beginning of spring break Nana and Jen came to visit. Luke went home with them and spent four

My blog is not normally too in depth. :) I don't know why - Maybe I just don't like to think that much. Anyways, last night when I was reading my Bible I ran into one of my favorite passages and thought that I'd share. It's John 8:48-59. My favorite part is at the end when Jesus is talking about Abraham. The Jews said that Jesus wasn't even 50 years old so how in the world could he have seen

...for being a bad blogger. You know, first we had a computer virus with the computer out of commission for a month. Then, we have no internet service this week. But stay tuned because I have news hiding in this blog post.We went to Tulsa a few weekends ago and met Sarah, Avi Joy, Andrew, Nehemiah and their moms at a train restaurant. It was a really cool place. Luke and the girls loved watching

I'm back and sooo far behind. Our computer had a virus and it took us a while to get it fixed. I'll fill everyone in on what we've been up to and then do a better job (maybe) about updating. Here is Luke with his loot from Nana and Papa's house.Our Christmas really didn't go as planned. This picture was taken on Tuesday the 23rd.

Last night we had a birthday party for Jesus complete with cupcakes and ice cream! Luke loves birthday parties for that specific reason. So I figured if we had a party with cake and ice cream he might understand more that Christmas is Jesus' birthday.After we had our cake and ice cream we went through FamilyLife's What God Wants for Christmas.

It has been a long time since my last post. We've had computer drama...We put our Christmas tree up before we left for Thanksgiving. Friday has been deemed Family Fun Night at the Sweet House. So we had family fun putting up the tree. Daniel was spreading the ornaments out on the tree after Luke put them on. Daniel was finished by the time we got to the balls. You can tell who decorated the tree!

It's been a while since my last update - we've had a bit of computer issues. So here is a little bit of what we've been up to.Lukas and I headed to Nana, Papa and Aunt Jen's house for Halloween. We met Heather, Sarah and Andrew at the pumpkin patch on Halloween. We had a great time catching up. That night we headed to the Hometown Halloween in the town Mom and Dad live. We almost didn't make it.

We all had a really great time.Check out that face!After Frontier City we headed south to attend the Oklahoma State Meeting of Free Will Baptist. We were able to stay with Granny.

Here's what we've been up to!We went to a church conference at Hillsdale at couple of weeks ago. Nana and Papa met us there. Nana was a lifesaver watching Luke while I went to classes. She brought him a bug catcher. Luke is still playing with it. The bug catcher had big tweezers that Luke calls "squeezers", so he doesn't have to touch the bugs...Yeah right! :)This was just a cute picture. Luke

...I am a blog failure. Since it's been about a month since my last update - here goes. We celebrated our 2nd Forever Family Day on August 14th! Luke knew that it was a very special day. He got a new shirt as a gift that day. Per his request we went to McDonald's for dinner and came home for cup cakes and ice cream! It was a very special, fun day. We are so very very blessed to be this little

Our summer is coming to a close! It feels like this summer has been busier than last and I think that it has. We have had three weeks of church camp, done little league baseball concessions, a week of vacation, been to the Free Will Baptist National Convention and a mission trip to Mexico. This post is very picture heavy since it has been a month since our last update! Hope you enjoy seeing where

I have been dreading updating our blog because it has been so long and so much has happened. It's pretty bad when you have to look back at your pictures to remember what has happened during the last month. Hear goes... Daniel was an evangelist at a church camp the week of Memorial Day, so Luke and I headed to Tulsa to spend the holiday with family. We were able to spend Monday at Granny's and

We have been pretty busy since my last update. Nana, Papa and Aunt Jen came in during Mother's Day Weekend. Luke made me a picture frame for Mother's Day when Nana, Papa and Aunt Jen kept him while we were at the Acquire the Fire Youth Conference. Saturday Papa took Luke to the park and to McDonald's while Nana, Aunt Jen and I went to a Mother/Daughter tea at church. Baccaleaureate (I know I

Luke learned a very important lesson last week during his bed time routine. Before bed we always read Luke a Bible story. On this particular evening Luke and Daddy made a fort on his bunk bed to do their reading in so I stayed out of things so they could have their guy time. During this Bible story Luke learned that the most important thing that he could do is to love God. He says all the time "I

I'm already slacking again... Here's a quick run down of what we've been up to. At the end of March we spent the night with Granny and went to my Grandma's birthday party. Luke had lots of fun playing with cousins. Morganne introduced Luke to Elmo Play Station games. He has had loads of fun playing them at home. He is learning numbers and letters with the games.Makayla spent the night with us at

Here's a picture of Luke sportin' his green on St. Patricks Day!We were going to color our Easter eggs Monday evening, but when we got home Luke completely gave out. He only slept for about an hour so we were still able to have our fun and color our eggs.He has so much fun coloring eggs. He enjoyed it last year, but I think he had even more fun this year. We really didn't do anything else

Luke and I are back from a trip to check on Papa. We got there on Tuesday and the first thing that Luke did was throw his Elmos in Papa's lap to help him feel better. It was pretty cute. On Wednesday we went with Papa to the dentist. He got a decent report. He will have to have one crown and has about six chipped teeth that will need to be fixed. On Thursday Luke and I hung out at Nana and Papa's

We went to Sesame Street Live on Saturday. We had been talking it up to Luke for a couple of weeks.I took this picture of Luke on Wednesday before church. Since we've been talking about Elmo so much he thought that Elmo needed to say "Cheese!".We headed to OKC on Saturday morning to go see the "real" Elmo. Luke was so excited. I was hoping that he would take a nap on the way there, but no such

They performed a CT Scan in Mexico this morning. It came back good. That is a major praise item! Dad and the men traveling with him are currently waiting in line to cross the border. My mom, sister and uncle are about two hours away. They should pick Dad up around 11 pm. The plan was to go as far as possible. Dad would like to make in all the way to Tulsa before stopping at a hospital. He will

Here is an update on what is happening:My mom was trying to get the hospital in Mexico to do a CT Scan last night. They said they had the capabilities. Well, this morning we found out that they don't have the machine there. They load people up on a flat bed trailer and take them to where the machine is. It was really important that Dad get that done last night in case there was bleeding on the

My dad is in Mexico on a mission trip. They were building a church. He was on the roof and it collapsed today. He has a serious concussion, a broken elbow, at least 20 stitches on his face and some chipped teeth. He has been admitted to the hospital. Please pray that his brain will heal so that he can be transported to the US for surgery on his elbow.

I am already doing better at blogging. It takes me two months to update and now looky here. Two posts in a week! :)Friday we went to one of our students' basketball game. They were in the state semi-finals. It was a great game, but they lost by two points in overtime. Luke had a wonderful time. He is Trevor's personal cheerleader. He kept cheering "Go Trevor Go!". He also had a great time eating

It has been a while since our last post so I will try to fill everyone in on our adventures this Christmas. We headed to Nana and Papa's after church on the 23rd. We had our family Christmas with Nana, Papa and Aunt Jen that night. It was so much fun! Luke had a blast handing out Christmas gifts. He got to be the first to open his gifts. It was so funny - I would tell him to pick a gift and he

...and it's not a bad place to be stuck. I think Luke and I both agree on that, but we are both very glad to be home now with Daddy. Our adventure began on Thursday when Luke and I headed to Nana and Papa's house to celebrate Nana's birthday. Daniel couldn't go with us since he had homework - he is working on his master's degree. Our trip really became an adventure. Luke had started running a

This post is a few days late! Sorry! We hope that everyone had a great Thanksgiving. We went to Nana and Papa's on Tuesday. We left on Wednesday and went to Ada. We had two Thanksgiving celebrations on Thursday. Luke enjoyed playing with all of this cousins. Aunt DeAnn brought Luke a bus. He loves buses!!!This boy absolutely loves cars...We left Ada on Thursday evening and went back to Mom and

Our little guy turned two on Tuesday! To celebrate we went to McDonald's and played on the Play Place. It was so funny to watch Luke. There are big windy stairs that lead to this tunnel of netting that leads to the slide. Luke would start up the stairs and stop and yell very loudly "Mommy!" and "Daddy!". Then he would come back down and over to our table. Then he would do this again, except go a

On Friday we went to Nana and Aunt Jen's school and talked with their fourth graders about Vietnam. They have been studying culture so we talked about some differences between our culture and the culture in Vietnam. The kids were really interested in learning about Luke's birth country.We met Sarah at the Pumpkin Patch on Saturday. They have so much fun playing together. After they ate lunch they

**Update 9/29/07 - Luke tooted this morning and blamed it on Elmo. I wonder where he learned that from - Daniel?While this almost two year old stage is bringing lots of challenges it is so much fun to see Luke grow up. The latest hilarious thing that he did was to tell on his Daddy! Yes, he told on his Daddy. I was cooking dinner in the kitchen and cutting up pepperonis. Luke was coming in and

We had a wonderful day today! It was nice and relaxing. I was ready for a day that we didn't have to do anything. School is going well and I also started to work for 12 hours a week (3 days a week in the afternoon). Luke gets to go with me. We are working for baby money for Sweet Baby #2! Luke woke up around 4:30 this morning so he spent the early morning hours in bed with us. He woke me up this

We went to Nana, Papa and Aunt Jen's this past weekend. It is always fun to be able to go home. Although we never get to stay long enough. Luke was able to meet Nana and Aunt Jen's new students. I think he passed the test. On Friday night we were able to have dinner with the Homan's and Perryman's. It was their Forever Family Day. We ate at a Vietnamese restaurant.After dinner Michael and Daniel

Our Labor Day Weekend was a busy one. Dad, Mom and Aunt Jen came in on Friday night. We hit our first Friday night high school football game. Our team lost... I meant to take a picture but didn't. On Saturday morning Dad and Daniel went to work on the toilets in our new house. We ended up getting a new toilet in Luke's bathroom and new insides in the toilet for the teen room (Why we have a teen

On a more positive note - Granny came to spend the weekend with us. This was the first time that it was just Luke and Granny around. Normally there is Aunt Jen or Nana also so Granny doesn't get as much one on one time. Luke loved her being here. They played and cuddled. It was pretty sweet. I may get in trouble with Granny for posting a picture of her eating, but here is Luke and Granny eating

What a special day! I can't believe that it has been a whole year since Luke was officially ours! In some ways it feels like it was only yesterday that we were in Vietnam picking him up. And then there are other days that I don't remember what it was like to not have him around. He is such a special little boy. It is amazing how much he has grown and changed this year. He has gone from a quiet

This was the last night of Vacation Bible School. We had a great time. The crafts all turned out great and it was lots of fun watching the kids make them. Luke had an accident on Tuesday evening. He fell and busted his lip really bad. It bled and bled and bled. Now he has a really fat lip. He still enjoyed his first Vacation Bible School though.Every night of Bible School the largest class got to

Okay, this is one of those things that I think could only happen to us. This morning I got a call from our loan place reminding us that we have a closing today. A couple hours later I got another call saying that the mortgage company our loan was going through was filing bankruptcy and we were not going to close today. The lady is locating a new lender and hopefully we will be able to close next

We went to Nana, Papa and Aunt Jen's this weekend for the Dillon Run and our monthly haircuts. When we got to mom & dad's they had gotten a slide for Luke and had it set up in the living room. His eyes lit up and that was the first place that he went. He slid and slid and slid some more. It was a hit!On Friday we met some friends at the Dillon Run. We walked the 1K Fun Run/Walk.

We are back home once again - and boy does it feel good! We've spent the last week in Little Rock for the National Free Will Baptist Convention. I've got to brag on my little guy for a minute. He is the BEST traveler. Both days we were traveling he did wonderfully. He even behaves while we are hanging out in the airport! He just had a couple not so great moments in the middle but nothing too bad

I thought that I would share some things that Luke is doing with you guys! Pretty much all day long I am hearing "Need Down", "Need Out", or "Need Elmo". He generally uses the down and out when we are holding him and he wants down or if he is in his booster seat and he wants out. We hear "Need Elmo" when we turn on the TV. A couple weekends ago when we were at my mom and dad's mom turned on the

We had a cook out and swim party tonight with our youth ministry. It started out really hot and we had a great time swimming. Luke swam for over an hour. Then the thunderstorm rolled in. The rain cut the swimming short. We didn't go watch the fireworks tonight since it was kind of nasty outside. A small town next to us is having their fireworks Sat. evening so we may go then. Luke saw some as we

We just got back from our second week of church camp. This week was wet, rainy and cold. Daniel was the evangelist and he did a great job (at least what I heard!). I was only able to sit through a whole service on Thursday night when Luke fell asleep. All the kids had a good time. They all really enjoyed playing with Luke. Daniel sings Luke an Elmo song that he dances to. By the end of the week

We had a great weekend! We got to meet lots of our adoptive family friends today. It really feels like you know them already after going through the adoption process with people so it was great to see them in person. There were lots of very cute kids there also!! We met up with our travel buddies - Jeff, Erin and Selah. It was great to see them again after 10 months! The kids have grown so much.

We had our court date this morning to refinalize Luke's adoption and to legally change his name! Finally!!! Last week was our 10 month anniversary. Luke has now been with us for as long as he was in Vietnam.Nana and Papa came in last night so they could go to court with us. It was quick and painless and we even got a copy of our adoption decree today! Daniel couldn't have asked for a better

Whew! We just got home from an amazing week at teen camp. This was our first year to go to camp with our current youth ministry. Camp always proves to be an awesome bonding experience. We all had a great time in fellowship and worship. The Justin Cofield Band did music. We got to know them several years ago at camp. They are great people. Afshin Ziafat was the speaker. He has an awesome testimony

I just knew that all my blog friends wanted to know what my 19 month old looks like after eating sloppy joe's for dinner! Isn't that just too cute?!?!Luke has started doing the cutest thing. When we bless the food and tell him that we are going to pray so he needs to bow his head he bows his head and goes mmm...mmm...mmm. That is just so adorable!

Luke and I were able to go to Granny & Pa's house on Saturday. We had so much fun with family. It is sad without Pa there. He is really missed.Luke had lots of fun playing with his cousins. They golfed and wrestled and just had lots of fun. He is growing up WAY too fast! He said four words together for the first time on Sunday morning. He said, "I want this out"! Aunt Jen had bought him a golf

We have been home for an hour and I'm already blogging. Daniel is putting Luke to bed. We got to go visit Nana, Papa and Aunt Jen this weekend. Granny came in too! On Friday we ran our errands while we were in Tulsa and today we went to the zoo. It was Luke's first zoo trip and we had a blast! We met Sarah, Avi Joy and baby Andrew there along with their parents of course! We got to see an

Hey! I guess we'll call last week uneventful - it sounds better than boring. We didn't really do anything until Friday night. We had a camp fundraiser dinner catered at a business in town. I helped keep the kids while their parents ate. One of the teenage boys had a great time giving sled rides in the church gym. (See pics below!) Sunday was Mother's Day. I think the Mother's Day Fairy dropped my

I had a long post written last night, but our power went off...Pretty interesting. Since we just moved a couple of months ago and are moving again I hadn't unpacked things like flashlights and the such. The power was only off for 10-15 minutes though so that was good. I'll try to remember all that I said.Luke had his "man" surgery on Tuesday so we pretty much stayed in for the rest of the week.

Luke got a new haircut today in honor of Pa. Pa always had a flat top when he was in HS and for a long time after that. I had been wanting to get Luke's hair cut like that for a couple of months. We had a hair appointment today so I thought this would be the perfect time.Here is a picture of my Pa when he and Granny got married. He is a handsome man. And Granny is a pretty lady. Then there is the

Thank you all so much for your thoughts and prayers for my family. They have been felt. Pa's funeral was Friday. It was a beautiful service. He was a great man and I feel priviledged to be called his granddaughter. It was great to be with our family for so long. It seems that life normally happens and that is the longest that I've been able to be with my Granny, aunts, uncles and cousins in

My Pa went to be with Jesus yesterday. I am 26 years old and this is the first person that is close to me that has died. We were all as prepared as you can get. He has had cancer for several years and had been in the hospital for about the last ten days. I am so relieved that he is no longer in pain and his body is whole again. I am so thankful that Pa got to meet Luke. When his cancer came back

Hello everyone! We have had a great time celebrating Easter this week. On Monday we colored our eggs. You can see that Luke had a great time. He didn't want to stop. As we were cleaning up he got a hold of the carton of eggs on the table and pulled them off. Needless to say - most of them broke! Oh well. We had fun anyways!!! I gathered up the eggs that we had left so the Easter Bunny would have

We had a first this week. On Wednesday Luke started running a very high fever. It got up to 104 degrees. We got him into the doctor Friday afternoon at 5:30. Daniel had to leave before we saw the doctor to go to church. The doctor looked him over and sent us over to the hospital to have his blood drawn and a flu test. Luke hasn't had his blood drawn since his blood work when we came home from

I had cabin fever SO bad yesterday! Luke and I were going to go out and when we went to put the dogs out the fence was messed up so we had to wait for Daniel to get home and fix it. Daniel was so nice to take us out after he fixed the fence. We went and ate an early dinner at Braum's. Then we went and played at the park. Luke had so much fun! His eyes were huge the whole time we were there. We
