Not a whole lot happening on the adoption front. We did a yard sale and were very blessed through it. We are getting closer to our next payment, just over half way. our home study is still in the works....slowly be surely it will be done. Then we can file our 800.
On another note a lot of people have asked how or why we do sports. well simple we love it. yes it can get crazy having 7 kids running 7 different directions. But for our family it works. This is simply our kids season....What else would we be doing? watching more TV? sitting on our couch more? No thanks, I would rather be on the sidelines of a game cheering on one of my kids. Helping them work through both the good and bad of each game or practices. Teaching them that hard work will pay off someday. Watching them learn to work as a team and learn to work under people you don't really agree with. Life lessons , its how we have been able to work applying those hard life lessons to everyday life. Its also how each one of our kids gets time alone with each parent. As we are driving to and from practices it gives some great one on one time to with each kid. Some of our best conversation have came in the car. This crazy run, run schedule doesn't work for ever family but for our family right now it does. Someday we may pull back and decided it is to much but for now it works great. I guess for me it is one of the reasons I am glad I had have had my family when I was younger , so I could keep up with them all. I know some great people have started later then me and have kept up just fine :)
Hopefully soon I can update on our adoption and say we are now waiting for our I 800 to be approved and sending our dosser off the Ch*na. For now I am off to pick up the next group of kiddos!
