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!

DECEMBER 28, 2013: ROBERT'S "BIRTHDAY"

ROBERT'S "BIRTHDAY"
DECEMBER 28, 2013

Since we haven't ever been able to celebrate Robert's birthday with him, we thought it would be fun to have a "birthday day" for him during Christmas Break!  Today was the day!  
Alison and Bethany made a cool "Hobbit Hole" cake for him!!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY ROBERT!
Something that was quite fun and cute was that on our Christmas Schedule that I sent to our missionaries, I had put on the 28th that is was Robert's Birthday.  I didn't clarify and Melissa thought that was really Robert's birthday!  She was so sweet to send him a birthday post card!  During our Christmas phone call with Melissa, we clarified.  It is a fun memory!!!

MASON WANTED A PICTURE, TOO!
EVERYONE LOVES TO LIGHT THE CANDLES!
ROBERT, WE HOPE YOUR GREATEST DREAMS AND WISHES COME TRUE!!
