The seas are getting stormy around here. Today, in no particular order, I was treated to the following:
- our three year old, CB, wailing and gnashing her teeth through a doctor's visit at which she required a breathing treatment and antibiotics for bronchitis.
- still no update on our travel arrangements---I've heard of "Ethiopia time" but is everyone in America who deals with Ethiopia required to be on it? Sheesh.
- our 6 month inspection for our foster care license, where I met our new case worker.
- my darling two year old, who speaks her own form of broken English, and her three year old sister cheering, "Hooray! Hooray! We've got lipstick!" This drew my attention for a number of obvious reasons. When I got to where they were, I discovered that the lipstick was actually a purple colored GLUE-stick!
It's no wonder we don't hear more about Mrs. Noah on the ark. If she was smart, she grabbed a cup of tea (or more) and headed to a quiet spot near the mice and deer and curled up with a good book for most of the trip!

I hope CB's bronchitis clears up soon. I think of a few things you could add to that tea to make your visit with the deer and mice more relaxing. Speaking of which, why curl up with the deer and mice??? I don't think of mice as relaxing. I would go looking for the cats and dogs (yes, I said I would curl up with a cat - I must be tired)!
Hey, glue on our children's lips... now that's a great idea! Perhaps CB and N can teach that trick to my kids! (I hope CB gets better soon.) Hang in there.
Hi all...Jane, I have noted a few grey hairs on my head of late...I would imagine you have too? I truly admire you for how you always handle adversity with a smile on your face however! (Can't say the same for me!) Hope CB feels better soon...we've been down that road many a time. It's horrible. We are all counting down the days with you until the ark gets it's newest inhabitants! How wonderful! Keep in touch.
Oh, excuse me....I'm busily searching for some glue sticks...I learned a great new tip from a friend of mine (as the kids are out of control in the background....)
Okay, I'll start a list. Glue sticks for Julie and Haline (any other takers?) and for Faith... a snuggly cat!!! ;-)
