Welcome

We set up our adoption blog so you can get to know our family a little better. I started blogging back in 2007 and have kept up with it over the years. At the end of every year, we print off our blog for that year and give it to Daniel's mom for her Christmas present. She keeps all of her children's yearly journals in a notebook that we will get back one day to pass down to our kids. I try to keep it up to date as much as I can.


When we decided to start the adoption process, I decided to make an identical blog for birth mothers to read. Everything that I write about my family on our personal blog, I copy it over to my adoption blog. I understand that an adoption profile only gives limited information about us and we want you to have the opportunity to really get to know who we are and what we like to do as a family. Our adoption blog will show you who we were even before we adopted our boys. Feel free to read as much as you want or click on the links up above!

Pear in the Hair

Daniel likes to write silly poetry and this is something he whipped up last night after dinner!

Other houses have the Cat in the Hat.

Not in our household. We have Pear in the Hair and it goes like this...


It may be fun, but I do not care.

Please do not put any pear in your hair!

Of course you do not hear, you are still a child

That likes to play with food and act all wild.


The pear in the hair was very slick.

The pear in the hair was very thick.

It dried so fast, It dried so quick.

In no time at all it started to stick.


The hair would not go through a comb.

The hair would not go through a brush.

In a stroke of luck, his daddy was home.

To take him to the sink with a rush.


“You need a bath in the sink I think”

Said his Dad with a quick wink.

As fast as a you can blink,

Carter was having a bath in the sink.


It wasn’t too long, It wasn’t too short,

And our Little Carter sure was a good sport.

Next time our dinner is served, I would not care,

If there is not anymore pear in the hair.
