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!

SEPTEMBER 22-28, 2014 -- A DOSE OF DAILY LIFE

A DOSE OF DAILY LIFE
September 22-28, 2014

I found a fun chocolate treat at the neighborhood market.  "Healshe's" I'm sure are the cure for all the "she's" in the world.   They are really good dipped in peanut butter!

David is ALL boy!
 He likes to run up trees.


While walking down the street one day, we found a little girl sitting in the middle of the walkway take care of business.  She was content.  Her parents in the shop were content and we just kept on walking -- after I took a picture.  Only in China.


 Buying tights for the girls' uniforms

They are putting in new drainage behind the wet market 


This is the cool way to weigh stuff at the market.  No digital scales, just weights.

Our alley for shopping 
 We decided to try noodles here in the alley.  They were quite good.


 

A Young Women's Activity at our house.  The girls all made their own personal "Title of Liberty."  It was fun to see what they came up with!


We had new neighbors move in behind us.  I guess setting off fireworks is a way to ward off evil spirits of a new home.  They sure set off a lot of fireworks before they moved in!
