Today

I am watching Dawit and Israel play in what snow we have left today and I am in awe of how far they and we have come.  There are days when I get a little fustrated with the pee situation.  Aim? Not so good, but getting better.  Night time?  Still wearing pull ups which, well let's just say I wash sheets almost everyday.  I mentioned it to a friend how fustrated I was.  I feel like all I do is clean up pee.  She so nicely said well at least it is not poop!!  How true.  A nice little reminder that if this all I have to complain about I have it pretty good.  It still can annoy me.  Just ask my family as I screech at wet sheets and wet toilet seats but I am reminded daily how blessed I am.

As Dawit and Israel scoop up snow and try to cover up the green grass with it I realize there will be a new season soon.  Green grass, graduations, busy summers and well maybe still lots of pee.  :) But at least it is not poop!!


Here is a sweet video of  Dawit and Israel's first bath in the Guest House we were staying at in Ethiopia.  We had just gotten custody of them and stuck them in the tub.  They only had ever taken a shower.  They were not sure what to do with it.  They have come so far!!
