Welcome

I would love to invite you into my home to have a cup of tea with me. We could sit in my sunny kitchen and talk about all the things that are going on in our lives. I could share with you the news I hear from my grown daughters. How my grandkids are growing. We could laugh together over the funny things that they have said. It would be fun to share the ins and outs of our family life, and talk about our latest creative projects. We could share what God has been teaching us, in our personal lives, and encourage each other on this walk of faith. We could pray together, laugh together, and even cry together. Since most of us will never be able to sit down together face to face, I would like to invite you to join me here. So come on in and have a cup of tea with me.

About Me

I am a 61 year old, wife, married to my best friend for 40 years. We have been blessed with 6 children, & 13 grandchildren. I love mentoring women in their spritual walk & in the everyday. I have a diverse background, having spent over 30 years living and ministering in a small South American country. Now my family resides in a small town in the lovely state of Tennessee. We have experienced the blessing of adoption, but also the hard of dealing with a child with RAD and other mental health issues. You can live life with the cup half full or half empty the choice is yours. I choose half full.

Welcome Baby Ioan


Ioan Michael Lewis was born, Friday afternoon, Dec. 7th at 4:25pm. He weighed right around 7Lbs. 3oz. and was about 20 inches long. Mother and Baby did wonderfully well. Daddy and Nana were allowed to both be in the delivery room and see the miracle of his arrival! What an incredible experience!

We brought them home from the hospital on Sunday morning, and have enjoyed having them here and taking care of them. This morning Mandie and Ioan both had a doctor's visit. Mandie is healing very well and got a good report from the doctor. Ioan is very healthy. He has gained a little more than a pound these last 4 days, so he seems to be thriving.

To be here in Korea with the kids, to see this amazing miracle and have the chance to be with Mandie has been a blessing beyond words.

Please keep Mandie and Mike in your prayers as they continue to adjust to this new life God has given them. Pray that Ioan keeps healthy and continues to grow stronger each day. Pray for Tony and Teddy as they are in Manta. Pray for Ashley and Lexi in the US. Both girls are finishing up Finals as this semester comes to a close.

God Bless each of you!
Joy
the new Nana! :-)
