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!

 Processing the silk from the silk worm cocoon

 See those dead silk worms?  We ate those last night.




 It was amazing to watch this lady work the individual silk worm coccoons and in the end she had a bag like this.  Phenominal.







 Rachel LOVED watching this woman work

 The stitching with silk threads was breathtaking.
