A Special Normal Evening

Blessing and the whole second grade did wonderfully at the second grade patriotic program. Chloe, Theo, Grandma and I attended, while Kyle, Zach, Grandpa and Sophie attended Ben's choir concert. (Divide and conquer is the motto when you have 6 kids in 3 different schools - next year it will be 4 different school -yipes!)

Anyhow, the program was beautiful, inspiring and Blessing seemed to be surrounded by friends. It felt so normal and nice. Afterwards, we all headed to the new local ice cream parlor to celebrate Ben and Blessing's success. Blessing ran into a friend there as well.
On the whole, a pretty simple evening, but it sits well in my heart and mind because even though we had to split up for a while, it felt like we were pretty unified as a family. It made me happy.

  1. I can see where that does your heart good! We just want our kids to feel loved and accepted, don't we. You're doing a great job, Adrienne! I hope you can give yourself a bit of credit now and then! These types of smiles on the outside come from happy hearts within! Love ya!
