Today was an interesting day in our home. Our day started at 2:15 AM, when we woke to hear Logan still awake. That means that Logan was awake from 7:30 AM YESTERDAY, yes, he was awake from 7:30 Wednesday morning to Thursday at 5:45 PM. I have no idea how he did that. It just [...]

Amazing!!!
This is so incredible. It may be in a different language, but that doesn’t matter. His skill really shines through. I couldn’t imagine having all of this going on at the same time!!!

Emma!!
This afternoon I was in Emma’s room sorting out her clothes to make room for some new ones given to us by a friend (Thanks Judy and Mark!!). Emma was playing in her crib with her cow and rattle, and talking to me, as per usual. I saw something out of the corner of my eye, and [...]

D-Day, Feb 22.
Today was THE day, the day we went for a visit at Abby’s potential new school. I figured it would be a walk in the park, and I would be able to make the decision fairly quickly afterwards. No such luck, I was very sorely mistaken. The problem we are having, there are such vast [...]

Interesting Conversations
Steve and I recently started reading “The Culturally Savvy Christian” by Dick Staub. It’s a very interesting read, although we’re only a few chapters in. We read one per week and then discuss on our weekly “date” (gives us something other than kids to connect on….kind of fun except when I read the wrong chapter!). So [...]

Sighs of Relief
Yesterday we had 3 great things happen, and I’m breathing big sighs of relief today.
Since Abby started swimming lessons, she’s really been having difficulty afterwards with throwing up. I think from taking in too much water. Pool water is a great beverage, at least according to Abby it is. But last night was the first [...]

New Adventures
This year Steve and I have decided to write a book together. We have found that there are very few Christian books geared towards families with special needs. So, we thought we’d write something. Both Steve and I enjoy writing, and it seemed like a really great avenue to pursue. Today I began my process. [...]
