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 17, 2013 -- MATTHEW'S BIRTHDAY

MATTHEW'S BIRTHDAY
SEPTEMBER 25, 2013 + 4.5 MONTHS

February seemed a good month to celebrate a birthday since we weren't able to have Matthew's birthday with him back in September.  We had his preset that has sat waiting since then.
Matthew has had some challenges and has been in and out for many months.
We hopefully are finally getting some help and we are able to have a 6 hour visit with him on the weekend.
We pick him up and take him to church then back home for lunch and he is able to stay for about an hour and then back to the facility.
This was our first visit and we had a birthday party for him -- 
cake, ice cream and a skate board for his gift.
We love you Matthew.  We pray for you everyday!!!






 Mason always has to have a turn!!!  We have spoiled him!
He is excited for his birthday that is coming very soon!!!
