Journey of a Former Home-schooling, Transracial, Adoptive and Foster Family

Journey of a "former" Home-schooling, Transracial, Foster Family Life is a journey. Choose joy along the path even in struggles. Join my rambling attempt to journal our lives, joys, struggles, complaints and victories as well as the ever increasing numbers to our family. They are all here. No sugar-coating from me. Live, laugh, love!

Smiling...

Baby K started holding up her head while on her tummy AND she now smiles at you as well. It melts our hearts every time.
