We are Home


We are home-and home has never felt so good! Tony and I missed Cale and Mya terribly. We both lost it a couple times on the way home, and then I was so emotional coming off the plane that I think I scared the kids. Crying when you are happy is not something that they understand just yet.

Silas was such a good boy on the plane. We had a blow out diaper and a couple rough moments, but not bad for a little guy. We left our hotel at 10:30 a.m. MO time on Friday and didn't get home until 8:00 p.m. on Saturday, so mom and dad were tired and stinky!

I know we are still in the honeymoon phase :) but the other kids are doing so well with Silas, and he is responding well to them. He avoids the cats, but he is really scared of the dog.

Thank you for praying for our safety and our health while we were away. And a big thanks to Don and Laslee for holding down the fort at our home. Internet was also very difficult to access, so we are grateful for Carey's help in getting our messages posted on the blog.
