About Me

I am a mom, wife, therapist, backyard farmer, LGBT community member, Appalachian, college counseling center director, amateur genealogist, musician, amateur photographer, & foster parent. Though I lived until my late 20's in West Virginia, I now live with my wife and our two adopted sons in Toledo, OH - where we've lived for about ten years.

Our sons came to live with us first as foster children in March, 2012. We officially adopted them in December, 2012.

I feel very strongly that we must all work to think about what we value and make sure that we're living consistently with those values - something that I'm not sure many people give much thought to. I also recognize and believe that the majority of people walk around feeling that they're never enough and struggle with their own feelings of self-worth, which should not be the case. I think that you'll find that regardless of the topic of my posts, these two themes will be touched on regularly.

I hope you enjoy my thoughts and I welcome your comments and feedback.

Our First Photos of the Girls

Tonight I was able to set up a little photo booth and take my first pictures of the girls.  They're still doing very well.  The Black Langshan had pasty bottom this morning and tonight so I'm going to have to keep a close eye on her.  The Brahma's are still in charge of the brooder but all seem to be settling in and getting along well.  Here are the new additions:

Dominique #1

Dominique #2

Buff Brahma - Bob

Black Langshan - Molly

Light Brahma - Bertha

Denise decided that she wanted the Light Brahma to be named Bertha.  My 4 year old thinks that the Buff Brahma should be Bob - but he's thinking on it.  We've decided to name the Black Langshan Molly after our  black lab/chow mix who died before Christmas.  That probably just leaves the two Dominiques to name.  I know that one of them will be Ruby and we're trying to decide on the other name.  My 4 year old thinks that even though their girls we should call them Max & Ruby after the kids show that he watches.  We're open to suggestions!
