More Firsts

Thank you for your patience as we attempt to figure out our life together.  

Tomorrow makes 6 weeks that we've been home as a family.  There have been many firsts for all of us.  The girls have experienced their first appointment with an American doctor, including the first round of shots needed to catch up for school.  Later today, they will experience their first dentist appointment here in the states.  

In addition, they've played at the splash park, visited Brookfield Zoo, floated in a lazy river, ridden down water slides, celebrated the 4th of July, chosen dare-devil rides at a local carnival, and met my brother Andy and his wife Tiffany.

Many other adventures are on the horizon, especially with school around the corner.  We continue to need your thoughts and prayers every day.  Many days are good, but as expected, some days are immensely challenging.  We are trying our best to stay calm, roll with bumps, and wake up each day with a renewed perspective - sometimes easier said than done.

Thanks again for all of your support.
