a few thoughts

i'm still so in love with my mornings with these 2. i know i keep saying that. but it just keeps being true :-) i am so glad that i have 6 kids - i didn't appreciate this stage as much with my earlier ones - but having those earlier ones, made me appreciate this stage as i looked back...and then i had some still in that stage to enjoy! what a gift!!

{they made a fort in between the coffee table and the couch. their giggles brought tears to my eyes.}
man, i am in a season of learning and growing. i will share once i can put words to it, but i feel like i'm in a crash course and trying to soak up everything i can! God is so real, and His Word is ALWAYS revealing new things to my heart.
we are in the last month or so of school. LOTS of end of school activities, performances, teacher appreciation...if i make it through and don't forget something important, it will be a miracle! i have notices and lists of things to buy everywhere!
levi seems a bit...hmmm...manic? lately? he's either REALLY happy or REALLY sad. and always wanting to be RIGHT WITH me. i'm wondering if it's from leaving him the other weekend?? it's probably totally normal "almost 3 yr old" behavior. but there is always that, "what if it's an adoptive kid behavior" that is added to it and it makes things just more complicated.
joshua is talking more lately. even his teacher mentioned it! i just have to document it. i mean, he still can't even begin to compete with the girls ;-) but it's fun to have him climb up on a chair in the kitchen while i'm making dinner and have a REAL conversation with him! i am loving it!
the weather has been pretty nice. but the pollen?? can you see our porch? it had just been cleaned off a couple days before. and the little boys and i ate lunch out there...and then i noticed where we had walked! so crazy! pat and bailey have BAD allergies in the spring...pat is ok (he's on meds) but bailey is a MESS! (she's also on meds but they don't seem to do much for her...)
totally random, i know. sorry!
