I will not leave you as orphans; I will come to you." John 14:18. Saturday, February 20, 2010. It all started with a flat tire! We have been home for one week now! So, we barely got on that flight and then we finally did get on it and then we sat on the runway for close to two hours-NOT FUN!

For I know the plans I have for you, declares the LORD, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. What an answer to prayer. We were fully prepared for surgery to not be a possibility for her as I know for many children with this type of injury, surgery is not an option. This is such great news and we give all the glory to God! 6 It drives you craz...

Tuesday, February 21, 2012. Abby had dress rehearsal for dance for her AFFECT group this weekend. AFFECT is the competition dance group that she is participating in this year. She is absolutely loving it and it has been fun to see her grow as a dancer. Somehow, I got lucky enough to have captured this beautiful shot! I think I'm going to print and frame for her room!

Our Crazy Normal: sleep please!

http://ourcrazynormal.blogspot.com/2010/06/sleep-please.html

Wednesday, June 16, 2010. Well, we're here in Beijing. We found our driver no problem, he's also our guide for our time in Beijing; he's very nice. I have to listen closely to understand his english, but he's very nice. Anyways, by the time we got upstairs, we were both in tears. Ben said 'i just wanna go home.' He's so tired. So am I. He was a trooper today. Anyways, I really am exhausted, so that's all I've got for now. I did not realize you were traveling with BEN! You are higher than any other .

Sunday, February 19, 2012. We have never celebrated half birthdays in our house. We've never needed to, and with 5 kids, if we added half birthdays in, we would be celebrating all the time! Well, Emily is our first summer birthday. So start of preschool this year and snack calendar predetermined for us that she would bring bday treats and have share day on her half birthday. EXCEPT, that her half birthday is the day after Christmas. Break for school. So now that it's past, I'm waiting for her to start as...

Our Crazy Normal: March 2011

http://ourcrazynormal.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html

Sunday, March 27, 2011. Too much not to post. This post has been evolving for a long time. I've mentioned more than once, here on the blog, how hard our adoption and subsequent transition has been since arriving home. Not to mention the whole long story that brought us to this place. And I know, that. Is a relative term. Difficult to bear or endure. Harsh, severe, or offensive in tendency or effect. Intense in force, manner, or degree. Demanding the exertion of energy. Calling for stamina and endurance.

Our Crazy Normal: January 2011

http://ourcrazynormal.blogspot.com/2011_01_01_archive.html

Wednesday, January 19, 2011. Friday, January 14, 2011. So, the other night Jason was off with Abby at activities so I fed the rest of the kiddos solo. The boys got done and ran off to play, leaving me at the table with the two littles. I put a few pieces of Jenna's dinner onto her highchair tray, and there was one piece that was actually 3 pieces stuck together. I know this seems like no big deal, but here, in our house at mealtime, that self-control with food is HUGE for Jenna! Monday, January 3, 2011.

Baking cookies, Christmas concerts, piano recitals.the stuff that life with 5 kids brings. Sunday, December 4, 2011. Uncle Brian and Julie got married! Jason was the best man, Abby the flower girl (the littles were 'honorary flower girls'), and the boys were ushers, and I did a reading from Colossians. Friday, December 2, 2011. Ben turned 12 today! I wish it would slow down.

It has been so amazing and fun to see him as a leader on the team.all his buddies as the 6th graders this year have really stepped up their games and it's been quite impressive!

Journey to Light and Life. Just another WordPress.com site. July 15, 2012. The other day I got to catch the end of one of the Ice Age movies, I think it was the second one.
