M.I.A.

So I’ve been a little MIA as of late.  I haven’t really felt much like posting lately (more on that later.), and things have just been so quiet around here (with the exception of that Hallelujah Corus singing the soundtrack to my life.).

Our little family has been soaking up sharing some undivided attention.  We’ve been enjoying the carefree life that is only having one child – going to the store whenever we want without acquiring a mind splitting headache, going to dinner and just having fun, going to the park, hangin’ with friends – so many things that we haven’t been able to do with such abandon in months.  We’ve even gone on a couple of impromptu road trips – because we don’t have to get travel approval!  Ha!

Needless to say, we are enjoying a little down time.

We have gotten several phone calls the last couple of weeks, but none we felt that we could say yes to.  Most involved either very large sibling groups, physical aggression, or older boys with no background info.  So we’re just waiting, and enjoying life.  Waiting to see what God’s got for us next – because I just have this funny feeling he’s about to pull a fast one on us.

Sylvie’s first birthday is also coming up (how in the world did that happen?!?!) so I’ve been planning that along with two baby showers for friends.  Fun stuff.  Good stuff. 

 

Anyway – I’m back in business, no more slackin.  Maybe I’ll post some Sylvie videos soon for her Aunties and Uncles.

  2. Enjoy your respite and time with your Sylvie and Brian.

    You both work so hard with the children that you take in, it's hard on a care giver - take it from one who knows, Care givers need breaks.

    I'm sure God's got a great plan for you!
