We were so proud of Paris and her dedication to the lemonade stand. She was waving down cars. All the money that was raised is going to Mayan Families to sponsor a child for school. An hour into it, Roc was done.. Washable marker tattoos. Check out our thug. This is Rex's pin-up girl tattoo.
I love sponsoring my family thru Mayan Families. What a blessing I get to make a difference in the life of a family in Guatemala! Good luck on the fund raising!
I am a SAHM who has been married for 10 years. My husband and I have 4 children. Our youngest who we adopted from Guatemala. We have 4 dogs and a Poppy and hope to add another child to our family through adoption. This blog is about us.

What is a miracle?
What is a miracle? It is when the impossible happens.
It’s when doctors have given up on a sick child and for no scientific reason, that child gets well. It’s when you’re down to your last dollar, have piles of bills to be paid, and a check arrives in the mail from some unknown source. It’s when a hurricane comes through a town and your house is left standing with desolation all around it. It’s when a child is born and you can’t believe how exquisitely miniature this new life appears. It’s when you’ve prayed for a specific purpose and that prayer is answered. It’s when there is no earthly reason something wonderful has happened.
Miracles take place everyday. Sometimes they’re very subtle and quiet, sweeping in like a touch on the face. Other times, it’s very evident and public. It doesn’t matter who you are, miracles can happen to anyone.
Why do miracles take place? It may be that God wants your attention!
When you believe in God, you gain an awareness of Him. You see everything in a new light. He shows His great power through the trials and tribulations of life, through nature and science. God is in the impossible business.
What is a miracle? Someone once said, “Coincidence is when God wants to remain anonymous.” Well, miracles are when God reveals Himself. Without Him there would be no miracles!All glory and honor and praise belong to Him.
