Just over 2 weeks ago Daniel had no work due to it raining. He decided to go up to the farm to get some fresh milk. Whilst sat a traffic light waiting for it to turn green, someone came up fast behind him and rammed Daniel’s pick-up in the rear […]
Wow! Our premature, 1lb 14oz son has grown up. SO SO proud of this young man. He brings a smile to many faces. Just like his older brother, he never meets a stranger and will talk to/help anyone who needs it. If you haven’t figured out who I am talking […]

Ten years ago today, in the evening, we received the call from Lifetime Adoption that Daniel had been born. Although we had been matched with his birthmom the week before Christmas & had met with her a couple times, one of which was to go with her for her doctor’s […]
