Water Baby

Emmett is a water baby. We can hardly keep him out of the pool. This video shows exactly why we don't have a pool at our home.

(side note: Buddy is wearing a water vest, not a orange thong!)

Geneva said...: I know what you mean! Last week, Savvy decided to go in the pool after we'd dried her and taken off her water wings. I had to jump in after her- with my pants and shoes on and my new cell phone in my pocket... *SIGH* She was totally fine, though. Her head had barely gone under before I pulled her back up. She didn't even swallow any water.; Tuesday, August 19, 2008

Reece's Rainbow

There are children all over the world in need of a family, love, and basic care. Many of these children have disabilities and are placed in mental institutions at the age of 4 or 5. In these places the children rarely live past the age of 10 and most die within the first year. Will you help to spread the word to raise funds and families for orphans with disabilities? Please visit Reece's Rainbow and see how your donation- however large or small- can help a child find a family. Look a little harder and you just might find the calling for one of them to be your own.

If finances aren't a way you can help, please look across their photos and say a prayer that each one will find their forever family soon. Reece's Rainbow is an International Down Syndrome Orphan Ministry which also advocates for orphans with other disabilities across the globe. Please "grab this button" and post it with a message to your own readers as well. It starts with ONE, but then grows exponentially. You never know, your own post may be one that finds a family for one of these precious children.
