Josiah

This is Josiah. The little boy I spoke of in my last post.

My heart is broken wide open. But this post is not about me. It's about a little boy not much older than my own who has been sent to live in an institution. I don't want to imagine the horrors he expieriances, but I do. I pray for him when I wake up, that is when it starts getting dark on his side of the world. I ask God to help him dream of a wonderful place and I pray that he won't be so afraid when he wakes from his dreams to the reality he doesn't deserve. I pray that his mama finds him before it is too late an he succombs to his enviornment and it breaks his fragile spirit. I pray for someone around him to notice he is afraid and tell himthat someday it will be ok .. and I pray that someday It Will. I would be his mama in a heartbeat. I truely mean this. We are not able to adopt internationally. This too breaks my heart. God knows I am willing and ready. So, I pray for a miracle. Little Josiah is lost .. Please look at him and ask yourself "Is this my son?"

Doing Our Part

It is the start of Fall, my favorite season. So many great things happen around this time of the year. Leaves start falling, mornings become crisp and we get back into the routine that we become acustom to nine months out of the year. I truely love getting back into our school groove. This time of the year is when we as a family gear up for our annual Buddy Walk. Actually, this year I am running a bit behind. By now I would have already registered and and had our first giving page up and running. I did this all today. Which gives us exactly 15 days to raise for Team Grayson! Please come join us or give to Team Grayson via our first giving page. I also have raffle tickets. Top prizes include a trip for a family of four to Great Wolf Lodge! We hope to see you Oct 2nd at the Seattle Center to show your love for Team Grayson!

Get On The Good Foot

I have been meaning to write it all down, aside from the penned letters tucked into baby books and bedside tables. Finding time has always been difficult. With two littles at my knees it's a wonder we get anything accomplished.

Our journey starts here. Stop by once in a while to see what we are up to!
