Growing

 This spot has not been on my priority list the last few years, and that was okay with me.  But we've had some difficulties with uploading and saving our pictures recently, and we lost almost a whole year of pictures when a phone died.  And I remembered what a great record this was of our family and our daily life, and I decided I wanted to try to do it again.

I'm not really going to go back and catch up on the last couple years because I don't have time for that, but I did want to at least show how our family has grown.  

Last summer, on July 21, 2019, we welcomed our second girl into the family: Moriah Jane

She has brought so much joy and laughter into our house and she has everyone wrapped around her little finger!

She is now 14 months old and just a sweet, happy girl who wants to do everything her big siblings are doing!

And speaking of her big siblings, they've been doing their own growing, and five are now being homeschooled; in 6th, 5th, 4th, and 2nd grades, plus a kindergartener (and a preschooler who often tags along!).

Then there's baby #8, who we are excitedly awaiting to arrive in the spring!  :)

Lots happening here, and I'm hopeful that I can occasionally share it!
