The girls have been here a month now. A lot has happened in this month. We started back school, got into a new routine, church small groups started back, church outreach, CC started back, Naomi started gymnastics, visit with our social worker, signed kiddo's up for swimming and ballet, and we filled out the paperwork for the lawyer....

| The kiddo's had a lemonade stand. They were very excited about their first dollar. Here they're singing, "I got a dollar, I got a dollar, I got a dollar so hey hey hey." (Little Rascals) |

| Dress up is an everyday occasion. |
 |
| School work! |
 |
| Aaliyah is still doing great. I discovered the holes in both the girls education very quickly. I'm disappointed they weren't taught any English grammar. |
 |
| Just so you know we're "real." This is me catching up on laundry. |
 |
| They love playing with all the different size legos. |

| I made another attempt with Aaliyah's hair. This time it was a total success. I am in my groove again. Below is her "before" picture. |

This is after! I found some products I really like.
Life has been crazy. We are still adjusting. Overall, we are thankful and blessed. Exhausted, but filled with joy. I am learning more and more that it is ok if we don't complete our schedule and if we don't check every box. I am grateful to be given this opportunity to teach and train these children at home. My eyes are looking to Jesus, the author and perfector of my faith. I am hopeful that He will redeem my shortcomings. I'm trusting that He is going to use Martie and I to bring our children into a full understanding of Himself.
In the end, to God be the glory!
