Snow and Baths
7:28 PM
Yes, I know, those two things don't go together... but I have two short blog posts to meld into one!
We have snow. LOTS of snow!!! Many schools around us were closing early today, of course not ours! :) BUT, tomorrow is supposed to be in the NEGATIVE 30s with the wind chill!!! And considering our district has a high population of walkers/bus riders, it's very possible we could have a day off tomorrow. Usually I love snow days. This year, not as much. I have big plans for summer, and was hoping to start those as soon as possible once we were out. This is taking some of those days away. :( Oh well. I'm definately waiting to firm up plans / reservations until winter is leaving though! :)
And baths. The boys LOVE baths. :) Braeden is STARTING to be a "NO, not bath time" kid, but not really strong in that yet, which is good. Tonight I captured some great pictures during their bath time to share with you...

About Me
I am a single mom to four amazing kids; each of whom just happen to have been adopted. The first three were adopted through foster care, and we just completed an international adoption from Haiti. Our family has grown through adoption and I am all the more blessed to know each of my children. I worship a mighty God, teach Special Ed, love bargains, and am inspired by Pinterest... come along with us for the ride!
Olivia - 14

What you should know about HIV
-HIV can NOT be spread through casual/household contact. HIV is not spread through hugging, kissing, shaking hands, sharing toys, sneezing, coughing, sharing food, sharing drinks, bathing, swimming or any other casual way. It has been proven that HIV and AIDS can only be spread through sexual contact, birth, breastfeeding and blood to blood contact (such as sharing needles).
- HIV is now considered a chronic but manageable disease. With treatment, people who are HIV+ can live indefinitely without developing AIDS and can live long and full lives.
- People who are HIV+ deserve to be treated with love, respect, support and acceptance as all people do.
Additional information on transmission of HIV can be found on the Center for Disease Control website: http://www.cdc.gov/hiv/resources

Little Did I Know
Little did I know that the road would be so rocky
Little did I know that the trip would take so long
Little did I know that my heart could hurt so much
Little did I know that God is never wrong
Little did I know that love could be so powerful
Little did I know that a dream so far could go
Little did I know that God would place the right ones
Little did I know that my heart, so large, could grow
Little did I know that a dream has it’s own timing
Little did I know that this day would finally come
Little did I know that four souls would be sent to guide me
Little did I know that they would choose to call me mom
But God knew all along and He had a plan to follow
God knew all along that my dream would soon come true
God knew all along that we five should be together
God knew all along that I’d share it all with you
