Trying To Find Our New Groove

hi
you miss me?
oohh, I know there’s like one of you out there reading this…..hi mom! ;-)

Hehehe, I miss blogging…. and linky parties…. and pinning  :-)

My family’s been through some big changes recently.  We’re still looking for our groove. I’m still trying to figure out how to handle all the new…..responsibilities..…now

Let me just say….WOOO WHOO Good Job! to all you mommy’s out there with big families and some how have figure out how to stay on top of blogging…and cooking and cleaning and schooling and getting a shower most days… etc etc etc…because I certainly have not figured out how to even keep two of those plates spinning at a time….. I will though…hopefully… before they all turn 18 and move on…but maybe not…and I’ll just have to figure out how to accept that.

In case you are thinking you missed something….the past 5-ish months hubby and I have been pursuing  becoming licensed foster parents, including several appointments, LOTS of paper work, home visits, and 10 weeks of classes. We have not been approved yet but through a series of (I believe God orchestrated) events we now have an eleven year old girl living with us....

 and.....

 I’ve also recently been in the middle of some heart breaking VERY frustrating drama with two other pre-teen children who have also been spending a lot of time at our house. So we went from two littles with just barley having a groove figured out to basically FIVE!!(…..sort of…. lots of things still to be determined) and absolutely no groove in sight…..

Life…might has well be trying and have some fun on this exciting journey… we’re riding the waves :-)

So I hope to be back…one day soon….maybe….
