I really need to write more often...

I could easily say "I've got four kids" and leave it at that. Except that doesn't begin to describe what's been going on in my universe lately. There's just too much. So in a bullet-style update, here goes:

C - Starts kindergarten in a couple of weeks. We are so not ready. Not in the emotional sense, but in the "Gah we haven't ordered school uniforms yet!" sense.

P- Starts preschool in a couple of weeks. I hope it's able to draw her out of her shell a bit. Not change her personality, but it would be nice for her to have friends of her own, instead of just adopting her big sister's friends.

M-Still itchy. Been living in pajamas and mittens for about 6 weeks now. In a massive answer to prayer, we were able to get into a different allergist/immunologist, and we have the appointment next week. I know it's not a magic potion, that will instantly cure her, but it will be good to finally have some answers.

A- Smiling, cooing, growing so quickly. I have to admit that I'm so glad that God had other plans for our family. It's a lot of work, but I honestly cannot imagine our family without him in it.

Me - Constantly working on improving myself, involved in a couple of Bible studies, an accountability group, getting ready to step into my role as a mother to children in school/preschool, making lists, lists, and more lists, and generally just embracing it all.

L - Recently got a new job, in the same place. It's much more suited to his personality, I think.

L has taken the two bigger girls to Sydney for the week, so it's all quiet here. And lots of time for resting. :-) Which I will now do, by watching a movie that L would dislike very strongly. Last night was Jane Eyre. Tonight is "Another Year".

That's all my brain can handle tonight. I'll try to write more often!
Cheers,
Sarah
