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 7, 2014 -- OLYMPICS BEGIN

THE OLYMPICS BEGIN
FEBRUARY 7, 2014

We love the Olympics!!! We love watching the events!
This year, we made charts to keep track of all the athletes.
 We had fun finding the countries on our huge wall maps 
during the opening ceremonies.
We had Borscht for dinner -- a Russian soup.
The next night, we had Olympic Rings plates with blueberries, olives, red peppers, pineapple and cucumbers.  We used these on our Olympic Salads!
