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!

FEBRUARY 26, 2013 -- WEAVING AWAY

WEAVING AWAY
FEBRUARY 26, 2013

We started a new project for some "hands on" activity.  We took an outing to Hobby Lobby and let everyone choose a skein of yarn and I started them all on weaving either a hat or a scarf.  There was excitement, frustration, a few tears over yarn that wouldn't stay where it was supposed to, etc.  But in the end, everyone figured out how to succeed and they are working away on their projects!  A couple are finished and others still in progress! 
One of the best parts of this all was hearing Rebecca say, 
"I am so proud of myself!"



Mason still loves green!


Daniel had some frustrations at first, but is now a pro!
