sigh...

Having four kids it tough!  That's about all I have to say.  If two aren't fighting, the other two are fighting!  It's awesome.  And, we have an almost eight year old that thinks she knows best about everything!  Teenage-dum is giving me a little show.  An almost six year old that is very dramatic and a four and three year old that are just trying to figure out their roles!

On a positive note, we have Ethan's first basketball game of the season today and afterwards we are heading to the zoo with blue skies and 55 degree weather!  It'll be great.

We also have two birthdays coming up in the beginning of February that are both specific to each child's request.  A tea party and a Mario party.  Plus a baptism the beginning of March.  It's all an exciting time and everyone is eager to celebrate.

We had a fabulous time in the mountains.  Our foster boy had his first sledding experience and first trip to the mountains.  It was fun to see it through his exciting eyes!  Kedzie and I had a great time skiing together, the only problem? Not enough snow.  So sad.  Snow Gods, please let it snow!

Life is treating us well.  We are taking it a day at a time right now and sometimes an hour at a time, but I'm grateful for the days and hours.  The giggles and snuggles.  The experiences we are all receiving.  And the hand our Heavenly Father is playing in all of it.  we are blessed.
