I am not sure why, but for some reason I really want to post this blog about what happened to me running today. I will give away the main point of the post right here…I fell completely to the ground twice! It was really embarrassing and I don’t know why I am posting this to […]
It is so strange to be writing this blog from Haiti again while Jess and Sophie are back in America without me. I have said this before, but I have no idea how military families do it. It is such a huge sacrifice that I could have never comprehended before I had to leave my […]
It’s been a while since our last blog, but we are back at it now that the holidays are over. As you know, 2015 was a crazy year for All Things New, for Jess and I personally, and for our kids in Haiti. We added a new member to our family (Sophie), we moved our […]
Today it is my pleasure to introduce you to Herbison, our oldest boy. Herbison is 16 and he is a very typical 16 year old boy. He can be helpful and nice one moment, and then a minute later he can be difficult about the smallest thing. He will volunteer to do some of the […]
Hopefully you have been keeping up with the rest of our blogs about the kids. Today I would like to introduce you to Son Son. He is 11 years old and arguably our smartest child living at Hope Rising. While many of our kids have repeated a grade or passed by the skin of their […]

It is my pleasure to introduce you to Mvinsley. At 4 years old, Mvinsley is the youngest child living with us and that is very evident! He is cute, loving, naughty, headstrong, and to sum it all up, he is a 4-year-old boy. He can be the cutest child with the biggest smile and then […]
It is my pleasure to introduce you to Vageley. Vageley is 6 years old and just started 1st grade at Christianville School. We have met Vageley’s mom 1 time on move-in day and we have not seen her again and his Dad is not in the picture. There was never a doubt that he would […]

We are starting a new series of blogs where we will blog about each child. Hopefully these will give you some insight into their personalities as well as what life has been like for them up to this point. Every time Matt and I have mentioned doing this, the first child that came to mind […]
First of all, I wanted to remind everyone of a very important blog series that we are about to start. In the next couple of weeks, you will begin to see blog posts about each of our children. We are hoping to use these blog posts to give each of our sponsors and supporters a […]
Just to let you know, there is not a lot of school news to fill you in on, so I wanted to post a blog about something that occurred to me as we showed the children the movie “Elf” this past Friday night. First of all, as far as school news goes, we did get […]
