Settling in...and the Boston Marathon...

So we have started to settle in the new house. Unpacking has begun as well as the every day tasks like cleaning and laundry. Amelia has been having a bit of trouble sleeping. Hopefully in a few weeks she will have no problem going to bed in her new room. I'm thinking maybe she needs a fan or white noise machine to help drowned out the sounds of the new house. We don't think much about it as adults because we know when the heater clanks during the night that it is the heat kicking on or any other noises that seem normal to us. They could seem scary to a little kid in a big new room. 

Both the kids are loving all the space they have to play now. The chaos and disorganization that goes along with moving is enough to make one's head spin. I think I spend more time looking for the things I need to do something than actually doing what ever it is. Crazy as all this moving stuff seems.... it's totally worth it to have my babies happy. 

Tomorrow the kids have headstart. I can't wait to show Connie around our new home. I think she will really enjoy it. 

Saturday is Amelia's birthday party. I can't believe she is 3 years old. I am so proud of what a wonderful little girl she has become. 


So on to a less enjoyable topic.... Today something horrible happened in Boston. It was the 2013 Boston marathon. The streets were lined with people waiting for the runners at the finish line. A bomb went off and then 15 seconds later another. At this time it has been reported that 3 were killed but over 100 people sustained serious injuries; even loss of limbs. This kind of tragedy always saddens us and makes us re-evaluate where we are in life and all the things we have that we should be grateful for. My heart and prayers go out to all touched by this horrible event. I pray that the people who did this are caught and punished. Today proves that God is watching. Two bombs went off in crowds and more people could have died. He was there in the crowd. I pray that the lives lost were on their way to heaven and now can live a peaceful life without pain and sorrow like we have here. 


Romans 12:12 Rejoice in hope, be patient in

 tribulation, be constant in prayer.
