Life keeps moving


Spring is here, the snow is finally gone in our yard, work is keeping us busy, the to-do list at home is long, new things are beginning, and some things are coming to an end, but what is staying consistent - is the wait. Little C is still not here to share all of our milestones. Life keeps moving. This wait it hard and frustrating, but life is still in full swing, for better or worse. 

Today Caleb had his last day at the daycare he has attended since we moved here. We very much enjoyed Ms. Julie and she was great for Caleb. She is sadly moving to South Dakota where her husband got a new job. Thanks for the great memories Julie!


Tonight we started a new soccer season. We will see how this year goes! Last fall Caleb had his doubts, but so far he seems a little more excited about this season. It will help that he is a little older, no longer one of the youngest on the team.

Night friends!
In Christ,
Mara

We got out of the city and saw a ton of the countryside, multiple areas outside of the city, and a beautiful "lake" that houses a volcano.  We've been starting our mornings with this view.

Then you, like myself and Jon, are wrong!!!! These are Pineapple Fields! Pineapples are grown from the ground! When this is ready to pick, the pineapple will be sitting straight up on top of the soil.  Road side stop to see the pineapple fields also allowed us to see t...

Siblings not by choice

Siblings.  Not by blood, not by choice, not by the perfect of circumstances. Siblings. Placed together by the hands of God. Placed together through love. May not get along through many circumstances, but love each other with a love most will never understand.

Four years.

Four years. Four years ago today, our second blessing jumped into our arms for the first time. Four years ago today, these two became brothers and best friends. Four years ago today, all our worlds changed. And yet, how can it have only been four years? Feels like he has been our son from day one. The Lord blessed us ten-fold the day we met you, my son, our Tope. My world is better with you in it.
