Microcosm

Chris: All I want is to get a little bit of peace in this world.

Me: I think having five kids was the wrong way to go about that.

Becca,

As a Mom of five--I agree. Peace comes when they are all tucked quietly and soundly in bed-sleeping. And then we are to exhausted to enjoy that peace. Smile. But oh- all the joys of the different personalities God has blessed our lives with and the laughter that takes place in the waking hours is wonderful. Just don't visit between 4-6pm and all will be fine.

Hope you are doing well. Your family is soooo missed at the academy!!

Yes, God knew what He was doing when he designed little kids to need more sleep!

What is it about the hour or so around dinner? It's nuts around here, too. I can't figure out why.

I can't tell you how much I miss the academy! I saw some people at K4J this week, and it almost made me cry.

Deep breath. We'll get through this year.
