Good morning world! Just picked up my oldest son from the bus station in Springfield. He's been working on the set of a new Christian movie, helping build sets, and such. He told us this morning he was used as a voice over and an extra in a couple of scenes. How exciting is that? He is going to be called again when another movie comes up with this crew.
I'm very happy to have him home!
Next week our family is growing again by 3! A 15 yr old boy, 13 or 14 yr old boy, and an 11 or 12 yr old girl. I have heard both ages on the younger boy and girl, so I am not sure. That means our existing foster daughter is going to be very happy to have another girl in the house. I'm excited to have more kids! I know, I must be nuts... The blessings out weigh the burdens, I promise!
So how is this going to change our family? Well, I have 3 boys, 1 foster daughter, add 3 more, that is 7 kids. Our new minivan seats 7, however the back seat can hold 4 instead of 3 if needed. Depends on the size of these new kids. Going anywhere together, church etc, means 2 vehicles. I'm ok with that.
Our dining room table will have to be extended next week instead of Thanksgiving Day. Right now it seats 8. Need it to seat 9 or more. I am already use to cooking for a lot, that is not too difficult. We had 3 pigs butchered just over a month ago. Good thing I guess, huh?
Be blessed and be a blessing,
Some of my thoughts and actions,
Elizabeth
