From Stephanie–
I want to introduce you to a brand new blogger this week that I think will touch your heart. Teresa is an Army Wife whose husband just left for another deployment. She’s about to start school and has a toddler, teenager, and a tween. Read all about it at Living The Army Wife Life.
From Megan–
Jen of Learning Patience, is Mom to four kids, two of them from Ethiopia, whom she just brought home in December 2007. The story of her travel to Ethiopia and the experiences she and her husband had there when they picked up their children is beautifully-written, suspenseful and deeply moving. I hope you’ll find time to read and be inspired!
From Kelly–
What happens when the family pet, the one the children adore and you tolerate, starts to bite your kids? That’s a heart-wrenching dilemma, and Sue at Naval Gazing captures the agony in this post.
From Beck–

Sue’s post — heart-wrenching, indeed. So hard to make a decision that ensures your kids’ safety when it breaks their little hearts. 🙁
I look forward to reading your other picks for the week; I think this is a great weekly feature.
Here’s another beautifully written, deeply moving post:

Teresa’s story moved me. I love God’s ‘little’ blessings (I use the term losely).
YAY, thanks Kelly for the link – that made my (still quite wistful) weekend.
