Thatcher's Story

Thatcher's Story
I didn't want this to get lost in my list of posts, so I am creating a place so that everyone can easily access this link. Please read this touching story about baby Thatcher, our friends son who was born with a rare liver disease and is in need of a liver transplant. Jessie has worked closely with Brad for over 4 years and I became friends with her while working at WSA until I left last spring. Thatcher was born a month before Braden and this story really hits home for me. When I look at Braden I think about how incredibly lucky I am. This could just as easily be our him going through this. Jessie will most likely be the living donor for Thatcher and they are in need of our prayers! I promise you will be touched by reading this story. Thanks!

The new belt!


So here are the pictures I promised... It feels good to get rid of the red and wear black! I am a probationary 1st degree and will graduate to the decided 1st degree at my next testing in 4 months, assuming I pass.

You look so cute in your gigs and black belt. How cool will it be for Connor to tell all his friends that his mom is a black belt in Karate. Way to go Tara!! Love Mom
