The Meaning of Black, White,Tan

  Some people might wonder why I titled my blog Black, White, Tan. For those who don't really know me. I was adopted at 11 Months old from Haiti. I don't really remember a lot. But, sometimes when I close My eyes I can smell the streets of  Port au Prince ( HAITI). I see all the colorful linens they are selling as well.
 I was adopted and brought to Kansas. I grew up on a farm where sunshine and bugs are plentiful.
Living in a community where everyone knows your name. As the only black person in the community for quite some time. I was very loved and welcomed.  Growing up in a white family never bothered me. We all forgot I was black even I did! hahaha! I remeber one time introducing my sister to someome and them giving me a dumb founded look. I then remembered oh ya I should explain I'm adopted.
 It was not till I was older. Did I have a hard time trying to find out how (Like any teen) did I fit in.
 It was then when one of my close friends who was adopted from Haiti as a well. let me listen to a Black singer named ''Nicole C. Mullen'' That I started to see it from Gods prospective. In Nicole's song it says '' His love is black, white, tan.''  After that I was aften found singing at the top of my lungs with my head phones on to anything Nicole had released.
 Now That I am Married and have two kids of my own I have made that my families life song.
No matter where we come from or what color we might be God see is all the same.

 It took me a while to understand that concept. But as I grow in the Lord I know I will always fit in his family.I hope my kids will understand and Learn more quickly the lessons I have learned.

Back to Bloggin'

Only a few weeks short of being a year from my last post. So I thought I would start blogging again. This is one of my To Dos of 2012. As my children grow I want to remember all the fun we have. Since I am way behind on my scrap booking. I thought this is the perfect way to capture all the little things as well.

Winter Jam 2011

Tomorrow we are headed to Winter Jam 2011. We took the Youth Group last year and had a ton of fun. With ten or so artist in one place, it's totally awesome that we are all praising the Lord together! I pray that we will all have an open heart to what God has for us in Music.

I'm So exited to be experiencing all of Sabra's firsts! it's so awesome that God would Bless me with such a wonderful gift. Yesterday was her first fourth of July and on the thirtieth she laughed for the first time. It was so cute. I can't wait to see what her little personality will be like!
