I'm sitting in a new house, in a new life. It's a huge, enormous and complete change. And I still have a deep sence of calm about it. So often, in my old life I would have a heavy and uneasy feeling in my gut. Although, everything in this new life isn't always roses and puppy dog tails, I do have complete confidence and joy knowing that this is the place for me. This is the place I'd longed for in my spirit. I've arrived.

I have five daughters now. They bring me enormous joy and a s***load of work. Keeping track of each of their needs both physically and emotionally is draining but joyous. I love them each. They are distinctly different.

I am very busy moving in and adjusting to my new role as mother of 5 girls and just spending time loving Joel. Life is good.

Five is a lot, but it's been a good amount for me. I used to say that I wanted my tomb stone to read "the socks did it". So many pairs of socks to match!

Wow! I forget to keep up for a couple of months and ... to say that I've missed a couple of things is understating it. I am happy for you! We think of you often.
