It's official!

Our little blue house is officially For Sale! The sign is outside our house. The listing in online for the world see. Showings don't start until Sunday so today and tomorrow are the calm before the storm.  As I told some moms at school pick-up today, my life is all ready crazy. Add keeping it clean and then running out of the house on very short notice makes it insane. But I think I'm up for the challenge. Mostly because I know that God has a plan in all of this, and I'm ready for whatever He has next for our family. And, if it's not God's will, I pray He strikes the For Sale sign down with lightning before Sunday afternoon. :)

Daddy Date

This post is long overdue. I was waiting for Ben and I to have time to sit down so he could narrate the following pictures. But I can't wait anymore so I'm going to let most of them speak for themselves. :)  Ben and the Munchkin had a super special Daddy Date in February. As a birthday gift from Opa and Oma, they went to the American Girl Place for dinner and did some shopping there too. They had a wonderful time together.

This time they took the bus...

Two of my favorite people...

I never take for granted how special it is for the Munchkin (and really all of my kids) to have special time with each of their parents. It's still something I'm not used to and consider it a blessing. A gift, really. A gift that not all children are able to have. I'm so thankful that they do.
