An update on the new member of the family!
Well, it’s been at least a couple weeks now and I still have not even tried to finding Sadie a home. I think I may be a little attached already. She fit it with my other girls so quickly and is an absolute doll. We are still working on rules and boundries but she is learning very fast. [...]

Favorite Quote From Fireproof
This quote really speaks for itself. I heard this during the movie and it just stuck.
“You can’t just follow your heart. Your heart can be deceived. You have to lead your heart.”

Fireproof
What an amazing movie! My husband was sweet enough to take me to see Fireproof tonight. It was wonderful. If you are expecting to see a Hollywood Blockbuster, I must warn you, you will be disappointed. But if you are expecting to be moved and motivated by a wonderfully emotional and educational movie you will be very pleased. The [...]
