A Visit from Someone Special

By -
A couple of weeks ago, Miguel and Mikayla got to meet their half sister Payton, who is now 8 months old. She is a real doll and as you can see my older kids fell for her instantly.

Love pats for Colton.

She really liked Tayler.

About once a year we get to visit with the kids Aunt Judy and Uncle Mel. Their cousin Amanda and Aunt Theresa came this time too. It really has been a great blessing in our lives to have stayed in touch with part of Miguel and Mikayla's family, it means so much to them.

Amanda and Mimi.

I dislike it when my house is untidy. But even more so, I abhor chaos ! In fact when I awake to piles of laundry in every bedroom, half eaten cereal bowls left in the family room for days and a whole host of ants partying on the dishes in the sink; I break out into what can only be described as sweaty hot flashes. Which only increase throughout the day as I try to bulldoze my way through each room of the house. I must confess that I have always envied those who keep a perfectly clean house. As I browse through the pages of a Pottery Barn magazine, I long for our rooms to look like those I see. However with seven very active family members all coming and going at different times and each practicing their own definition of "clean"; I try with all my might to think happy thoughts and not break out ...
