There is a quote: "LIFE IS NOT ABOUT WAITING FOR THE STORMS TO PASS.... IT'S ABOUT LEARNING TO DANCE IN THE RAIN."
With 12 children and 5 adopted from Russia, we have had challenges and trials along with our joys. We have decided that we must
learn how to "dance in the rain." We must notice and acknowledge the joys and miracles in our lives.
They exist daily -- we just need to make sure we do not miss them!! This blog is to remind us of these miracles and joys!

MAY 18, 2012 -- FRIDAY

MASON AND RACHEL

This week, I laid out Mason's clothes for him and asked him to get dressed and then left the room.  A little while later he came running into me and said, "I Did It!!!!"  We were so excited!  We have so many helpers around that he doesn't have to dress himself, so it is time we give him that opportunity!!!  Yeah Mason!
"I DID IT!"

Today, Rachel was out riding the "ripstick" and she took a crash at the bottom of the hill on the black top of the cul-de-sac.  It was a big wipe out!  When she was ready, we cleaned it with peroxide and and bandaged her up for the night.  She did some major "Whoopin' and Hollarin'" as we used the peroxide!!!  She loved the attention!!!

My "boo boos"

"Does it hurt?"  YES!

Rachel is a "whoopin and a hollarin"
