  1. Katie! Oh man how cute are you!! I am really excited for you about this foster care thing! My heart is with children that have needs in this area. It breaks my heart that some children will never know what it's like to call someone momma or daddy. My church actually is doing a series on this right now and it totally will get you pumped to begin this journey! http://austinstone.org/resources/sermons Here's the link to the sermons & it's the last 2 sermons. I am praying for you and your family! & I think a hair change is always good! You should really think if you want it cut though (Mine takes forever to grow out and I ALWAYS regret it haha) I think a warm brown would be good for you! (It's a brown with reddish hues. I'm an auburn girl myself so I always encourage others to do it too :)) It's natural on me though, I haven't dyed my hair in like 5ish years) I am your newest follower :) Thanks for finding me first!

    1. Thanks for the link! Looking forward to checking it out. Yes, my husband and both have such a heart for this and giving a few children a home and a family to always rely on. It breaks our hearts hearing how many age out of the foster care system.

Hello if you don't know me I'm Katie I {obviously} blog here and you can find my instagram & twitter ---> Two things in my bag: 1. My cute little notebooks I found at Target and a variety of pens. I love pens. No seriously, you should see my pen + sharpie box.  2. My phone. I am a HUGE picture taker. I love taking pictures and using all the fun picture apps and posting pictures. If you love taking pictures come find me, we can have some instagram fun!!!  Two things I'm looking forward to: 1. Hugs & coffee with friends. Friends I've never technically met. Friends that I will never forget, that will be hard to leave, that just get me. 2. Learning. Learning more about who I am. About the amazing way God created me as a woman. Learning from all these wise women that live with realness and grace. Being filled with His word. See you in 2-ish weeks!!!

"Write drunk; edit sober" -Ernest Hemingway I've never actually attempted this, but tonight I am. I've had my wine and if you know me at all it doesn't take much to get my lightheaded & giggly. I'm truly not a Windau (my maiden name) when it comes to my alcohol consumption. I put my catholic roots to shame. I'm ok with that. I'm not a mean drunk, but a purely giggly & say inappropriate thing drunk. Today stung. It stung hard. Last Tuesday we got a call for a little 5 month old baby. Technically we got a call for 4 boys but for reasons that I will not share, we could only say yes to little guy. And then there was waiting. And more waiting because our agency couldn't find a home for 4 of the little guys, they came from a sibling group of 6. All 6. Boys. That would be headed for permanent custody. In my mind all the things lined up. I had prayed for an orphan. I had been learning about how to bond with a baby in the adoption sens...
