• WELCOME!

  This blog is a photography-dabbling, veggie-loving, housework-hating, triathlon-trying, homeschooling, grace-needing mom's attempt to capture life as it happens with 3 kids (one adopted from Korea). We're currently paper chasing for a sibling group from Ethiopia. We hope you enjoy sharing our journey with us. You can subscribe via email or rss below.
