Some Messes Are Worth It.

After trying for hours to make this little boy happy this morning, I finally resorted to handing him a spoon and a jar of pb and walking away.

Nice to see him smiling again.

Farewell

Today we said goodbye to 3 sweet girls who have been living with us for the past 3 months. The past 3 months have been full of happiness, sadness, stress, love, anxiety and compassion. Our family has learned a lot about service and unconditional love. We will miss these girls and hope they remember the love they felt while in our home.

Happy New Year

We had a great new years eve party. Aaron took care of all the details. He cooked some great food and the dance party was very entertaining. Since it was also my birthday, Aaron took me to lunch and then let me go shopping for the afternoon while he got ready for the party. It was a great day.
