Hmmmmm

No particular event has happened, no break throughs, no rough times, just life as usual. What's wrong with us?!?

We are so blessed to be having such an easy time of it, I'm afraid to say it out loud. Yes, we're dealing with boredom, some small boundry pushing, a few pouts, but overall normal everyday family experiences.

The kids have had their first day of school, their first week of school, met knew friends on the street, gone fishing twice, gone swimming 3 times in one week, and still think school is ok.

So I rejoice and bask in the love of my children, and in being their mom. I never thought I'd be able to say that after 19 years of marriage and dealing with infertility. Thank you to all who have supported us, encouraged us and followed our blog. But, most importantly, thank you Jesus!

Below are a few photos from week two:

a) First days of School
b) First poker night with the neighbors
c) First fishing trip

Hello!

We have just begun our Polish Adoption Home Study. I wanted to thank you for opening your blog. It helps to read what other people have gone through. It's also a great way to pass some time through the WAITING.

Congratulations!

Debbie,
You and your family are blessed beyond measure! I absolutely love the school pictures - especially the one of your husband holding your daughter's hand and headed to school.......And of course the PACKER shirt you slipped in! You KNOW I noticed! :) Enjoy your holiday!

Dziękuję bardzo (I think that's the polite way to say thank you)!!

Now those are milestones to have in your memory bank.

Loved the pictures, especially the fishing ones.

Debbie and Jeff,

I just finished your blog and loved every minute of it. You are right, you have been blessed with a wonderful, beautiful family. It sounds like you are doing a great job of taking each day as it comes and finding the beauty and joy in every moment. Thank you for sharing your experience. It seriously warms my heart.

Debbie, it's been over a month. You're overdue for a monthly update. Would love to hear how Bartek is doing in school and how his English is coming along. Does he still get upset about not having Polish friends around?

I hope your days are still filled with life as usual. Those are the kind of days that mean the most to me... :)

Hope all is well, and I look forward to your next update!
