Sara's trip to the U.S.

I will be heading to the U.S. solo on Friday. I have a meeting for the American Overseas Dietetic Association in Chicago May 22-24 but decided to go a bit early and take a side trip to Texas so I will be gone a total of 10 days. I am very excited to see family and friends and not have a small child on 30 hours of travel but also a little apprehensive to leave karis and John for that long! They will have a great time together, i am sure!! However, we would appreciate your prayers as John will have to balance work and full time parenting and we have a new nanny/housekeeper who will be home with karis in the afternoons. (she goes to nursery school in the mornings).

Cleaning out the Car

The other day I decided to clean out the car. Here were the contents:
  • water wings
  • 6 pairs of Karis's shoes -no 2 year old should even have 6 pairs!
  • 11 water bottles
  • 2 Bibles
  • 3 books
  • 4 pens
  • Alcohol gel
  • 2 egg cartons
  • 2 diapers
  • Karis's sunglasses
Out of control!! I am happy to report this is the most cluttered it has been but we clearly need to work on taking in junk on a daily basis!
