the girls
As I'm writing this I'm watching our girls spin each other in a chair, enjoying their laughs and kind of waiting for the tears when someone gets hurt! but seriously i'm so thankful for the relationships they have with each other. Some times i let the evil one make me feel guilty and tell me that I am doing something wrong by not letting my kids have a "normal" life, an american life. They don't have many friends their ages and the little ones are not around other kids everyday (ayden is at school, but then she can't hardly talk to them because of the lang. barrier). And sometimes i can find myself feeling bad for them, but them i'm reminded that we are where we are suppose to be and He is providing all my children's needs. How thankful I am that they are not just sisters, but they are best friends too. Annie lynne doesn't even call them her sisters, she always says where are my friends, or why are my friends doing that. I love that she calls her sisters her friends, and so thankful for the relationship they have with one another that they probably would not have if we were not here!

I'm slightly jealous about this post. We are in a stage right now where we are working hard to get the kids to understand that they are a gift to each other and to be kind. Your girl's friendship will last a life time. And there is no such thing as a 'normal' life. Tell the evil to take a hike, he has to place in the beautiful and pure friendship and love that those girls have, which I'm sure they are learning by watching the relationship of their mom and dad!
