one December day . . .

You may remember this post from a few weeks ago. Luckily, instead of a whole post, we were able to get an awesome video {Andy Coleman is the man!} to remember that December evening in Haiti - when a sweet, baby boy entered the world.
Here's the story . . . . 

{a little patience, it's a long video but worth it!}

{This video was sent home with all the lovely White Stone peeps to watch on Christmas -lucky you, with a sneak peak ;) }

Here's a few pictures from that night . . . they're all from phones, so quality is low . . .

Meet Roland . . . 

They were literally in the road . . .

Dr. Abby arrived! Said he looks perfect!

While Brock was the one there that day, Roland's birth has changed us all. He will forever be talked about at our house. I can't wait to go to Haiti to meet him. 

My hope is that the next few days, you'll remember how much a birth changed us all two thousand years ago - 

the Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us.

Merry Christmas!

monday's randoms . . .

1} Random, you say? How's this for random . . . 

my husband is in Coq Chante, Haiti - last night, he delivered a baby on the side of the road!!!! Nope, he's not a doctor, he's a pastor and delivered a health, baby boy on the side of the road with one of our deacons, while several Haitians stood around her to block her from the cars! Now if that's not the craziest story you've ever heard, I don't know what is??!!! {luckily, we have a pediatrician who went with them on this trip, the mom & baby are now under her care at the orphanage}

Can't wait for him to share that story on here & hopefully some pictures of that baby boy!

2} How do I top that random???!!!!!! Seriously.

3} little boys. they are silly.

4} Really, I feel a bit shallow typing about my miscellany's after my husband brought life into the world last night. Kinda fitting for the season. The Bread of Life . . . the Light of the World . . . the Word became flesh and the world sat idly by, carrying on with their business. 

May our eyes & hearts be focused on that baby boy and away from the busyness all around.

happy monday!

linking up:

just needed to say . . .

. . . that I absolutely l.o.v.e. White Stone Church and the people that make it up. It has become a place of restoration & freedom for me from several years of not feeling like I could "be myself" bondage. An eclectic and unique group of people who genuinely care for each other & who stand firmly on the Word and freedom. Thank you White Stone Church for not being a place that throws a bunch of rules & regulations, guilts & condemnations at people but who show others how to live a life {to the fullest} that runs hard after a grace filled Savior. 

{picture doesn't have anything to do with post . . . I'm just not a fan of pictureless post :) }
