A New Chapter

One extra.  This new "chapter" in the blog-o-sphere is one extra thing I will do, if there's one extra hour in the day.  It is no longer to chronicle the "new normal" we sought after our second-born was taken into the arms of Jesus at 32 weeks gestation, or the struggle to get pregnant again, craniosynostosis, or the scary news that our fourth might also have serious health issues.  This blog is to chronicle the ups and downs and sideways of our family now that God has so richly blessed us with 4 beautiful children, one of whom we'll meet at a later date, one who is starting first grade at home, one who is still wearing a helmet 2 years after surgery, and one who has one extra 21st chromosome, and a leg issue.  We have our own set of challenges but God has proven to be there with us e-v-e-r-y step of the way.

One extra.  This is also my hope that there is always room in our home for one extra.  Always room at our dinner table for one extra.  Always room in our hearts for just one extra, whatever that may be.  I hope that you - the reader - will be able to see God at work in my life and in the life of my family.  I am a work in progress and definitely not perfect but I hope you can see through my weaknesses a perfect and Holy God who continues to keep me going.
