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!

JULY 9, 2013: MELISSA'S DEPARTURE

MELISSA'S DEPARTURE
JULY 9, 2013

It was "bitter sweet" to take Melissa to the airport and put her on a plane for her mission!  We will miss her so much, but know that this will be a priceless experience for her that will bless her life eternally!
We love you Sister Richardson!
We actually ran into a friend at the airport that was on Melissa's flight so she took a picture for us!
THERE SHE GOES!!!


 A little out of order, but here are pictures from Monday evening, 
July 8th, 2013, when Melissa was set apart as a full-time missionary!
