I was sitting in the hammock today with Grady. I had just gotten back from walking with Gillian to the orphanage so that I could translate a bit for her. Hadley and Eissa had gone with us. Grady and Cass had stayed behind.
While I was gone apparently the phone had rung. Grady said that Eliane hadn't answered it. I asked if he had answered it. He said no. I asked him who he thought it was. He thought about it awhile. These were his thoughts that flowed out of his mouth.
"I think it was God."
I was quiet. Just sat there, listening. Grady was looking all around outside and thought for a while after he said that. Then, very matter-of-factly...
"No, it wasn't God. He doesn't have a phone."

MICHAWN'S MEANDERINGS
I am...Michawn. I am married to Joel. He is a pilot/mechanic. We have 4 fabulous kiddos...Grady (13), Hadley (12), Eissa (10 1/2), and Cass (9). See that picture up there? Yes, they've really grown up since then. :( Happens fast. I homeschool, which I *love*...wouldn't trade that time with them for anything. We lived in Brazil for 5 years, but almost 5 years ago moved back to the United States. The 'Joel. Michawn.' blog series explains all of that. We still serve with Asas de Socorro (Wings of Help), a Brazilian mission organization...we just now do it remotely. We are still excited about what God has for us and this blog is still a great way for you to see it all daily unfold...but a lot has happened in the past five years. That is what is currently being written about. (This little blip updated in March 2017)
I am passionate about Jesus, my children, reaching others with Jesus' true love and grace, equality for all, and adoption, along with a few other things. :) Praying I do all that God has for me to do in this life.
