Long time.........

Its been so long since I last wrote any things! There is so many reasons for that! A big part is Im just bad at keeping up on it and onother is there have been far to many emotions to put into words! But Im going to attempt to put something together.

We had a great Christmas for the most part! LOL During Christmas time we were still dealing with some behavior issues, as you can imagine first christmas in a new home with people who are going to be you forever family however you have not forgotten the last couple of families you spent christmas with can bring on some hard emotions! And after christmas we had even more problems! But God is good and brought us through it all we found out that artificial flavors and colors are a leading cause in well everything but to name a few add adhd and temper problems when we cut out everything that has the aweful poisen we saw a huge difference!

Not to say everything is or was or will ever be perfect though. My oldest son and I are just recently learning how to relate to eachother and how to get along. Dont get me wrong I LOVE my boy with everything in me BUT I also became very garden with him though some of the trials that we went through and he with me. He has been though so much and he wasnt about to let me hurt him like everyone else in his life.

But as I said before GOD IS GOOD and he is working in both of our hearts and things are good ..... not perfect ;). The boys teach us so much every day its unreal! I cant even began to express the joy, and laughter that our boys bring to us they have grown us up and taght us about unconditional love they have shown us what it is to not live for our selves! We are beyond blessed:)

Some emotions that Charlie and I are currently dealing with in the world of adoption is some thing that we didnt really count on dealing with. We are really starting to morn there baby hood. When we look at how they have grown and changed in just this short time it makes me some times long to have held them and watched and they learned to crawl and walk and talk. When people say oh my I bet they were the cutest babies ! I say yes of course cause Im sure they were but my hearts longs to have seen them. With all of that though they are ours and will forever and always be ours and that alone is a big enough gift.

Some of the bigger new since I last wrote is that we have bought our first home! We are thrilled!! We absolutly love it and the boys are thriving with all of the room that we have! Such a great blessing :)!


Charlie also has graduated school, and will be looking for a job soon! We are praying for a job that he will be happy at and one that works well with our families schedule.! We are confident that God will provide!

Both boys are also in Gymnastics and are doing so well!

And the last thing that has so impacted our lives in such a great way is that the boys have a baby girl cousin that they just adore! She came into our family last October and we love her more then words.

The only problem is that we are now being asked quite frequently when they get to get a sister.............
