1. Yesterday Chris’ parents surprised us and took all three kids for the day. The ENTIRE day! So, we went out for lunch. Alone. Without children. Alone, people! We were actually able to have an entire conversation without interruptions. It was glorious.
2. I have done approximately 12 loads of laundry in the attempts to get ready for our vacation next week. I have approximately 12 more to go (at least it feels like it)
3. My “get ready for our vacation list” is written and I’m a little afraid of it. It’s two pages long.


I love Jesus, my guy Chris + our four. We seek joy. Homeschool. Adventure together. Mess up and start again.
