Run Evan!!!!

Evan did great at his cross country track meet for Christian schools across the state. He ran his 2 miles in 17 minutes. I ran long distance on the track team in high school. I am so proud of him. He has been participating more in church activities too. It helps that church and school are the same place :) ....

Road trip....

Bon fire and hay ride at church

Today was fun..

Making a new wick..

The wick was lost in this candle so we just made a new one with some jute...

Turned out pretty good..

Church...

Eliot really enjoyed her hand-me-downs and created her own outfit. It was a windy day...

Evan, Connor, and Annika walked to church this morning. If you look close Annika is holding Evan's hand...

Watching a movie

When you don't have cable or internet except on your phone the result is everyone piles into your bed to watch Beauty and the Beast...

Elaina couldn't stay awake...

19 years ago...

What was I thinking? I know this was a very depressing time. I was trying to be productive and started Nursing School for the first time. It was also right before I was divorced the first time. Being almost divorced for the second time now is like a slap in the face that I am just doomed to be alone. That really looks like what I am thinking...

Pregnancy and Infant Loss Month

For my 5 angel babies.... Eliot took the pictures. They are of my broken mother figurine. 3 of the kids are holding her. This month is Pregnancy and Infant loss and awareness month. I didn't post on the exact date as I have in the past. The baby that was not born this year was probably the hardest other than my first loss at 23 twenty-one years ago. All were cherished and one little girl was named. This topic is not talked about enough. Women need more support...

Elias finds his shadow

Eli was so mesmerized by his shadow as we were in the parking lot Thursday waiting to pick up the kids...
