Then there was baby....!

After a whirlwind romance, Milton and I were married in a small church in Whistler, Alabama in Dec., 1971. Twelve months later God blessed us with a son, Christopher Michael. The intense, fierce love that a mother experiences with her first child cannot be described. Surely I could never feel that way about another child.....ever.

WRONG! In 1976, our first daughter, Aimee' Brooke was born. Oh my gosh! What a precious angel! Surely I could never feel this way about a third child.

WRONG AGAIN! In 1980, our 2nd daughter, Autumn Paige made her appearance. I was as madly in love with this child as I had been with our first two children. Our family was complete.


WRONG, WRONG, WRONG!!! Did you know God has a sense of humor? In 2000 (yes... 20 years later!) a tiny, frightened and beautiful toddler was placed in our arms in a hotel room in Changsha, China. Mikayla Rose Xin-Guang was conceived in our heart the same month she was conceived physically in China. GOD IS INDEED GOOD!
