a permanent home

This little princess was recently adopted into loving arms. She comes all the way from Ethiopia, and she couldn't have been placed in better hands. And what a cutie she is! Her eyes just light up the room. I have so much respect and love for this family, and I could go on and on about them, but pictures are worth a thousand words anyway, so here you go...







No more monkeys jumpin' on the bed!


This may be my favorite one of all...can you tell she feels safe in her momma's arms?

website/email are down

My website and email are down, so if you've emailed me since Friday and haven't received a response, that's why. You can call me at 317.745.0481 or just wait until my website is up to email me again (if the website is back up, email is probably working too). I am hoping it will be fixed sometime Monday! :) And since no post would be complete without a picture...these are really random.

This guy had some really gorgeous peepers (and really cool hair)!


You've seen this little peanut before--but I was so happy when her mommy took my recommendation of ordering this in a 12x12; it looked so great in print.


We have the best neighbors in the world. Their daughters babysit for us (sometimes on a moments' notice), and they are such nice Christian people. I love to see teenagers who have manners and who don't act like typical teenagers! Here are the parents who raised such wonderful daughters:


And last but not least, a girl in a shoe! :)

And the award goes to....

The dad of this adorable family asked me if they win the award for least photogenic. Umm...I'll let you be the judge, but I'm thinking that's a big fat NO. :)











This could be my favorite storyboard to date...this little cutie is so so into princesses.
