Happy Thanksgiving! - 300th post - Major Change to This Blog

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!  The Shacks have much to be thankful for this year as always.  We hope you can enjoy the day with your family reflecting on the blessings in your life.   I know from experience that there are times when that is easier to do than other times when it seems that things are going awry. 

"Give Thanks to the Lord for He is good;  His love endures forever."

-Psalm 107:1

  

Change to this Blog

Over my four years of blogging I have enjoyed sharing our journey.  It is good to walk through life with others; to share your burdens and the joy of your triumphs.  When I first started writing this blog I never intended it to be read by others mainly because I didn't really think anyone would be interested.  I just wanted to write for myself so that I would remember the thoughts and events in my life.   Then God took us on such an incredible journey these past four years with our adoptions, weight loss, and at last the start of our family.   Along the way many of you have joined me and followed the happenings in our lives.  You have been encouragers, commiseraters, prayer warriors, fans and friends and I hope we can continue this partnership as I have so much more to say and I know God isn't done with us just yet!  On December 1st my blog will be going semi-private for the purpose of adding a layer of safety and protecting the identity of our little family.  I invite you to share with me your email address so that I can grant you access to our blog.  You can email me your info at betsysue16@aol.com.  Thank you friends and family!  The Shacks appreciate you!
