Welcome

Hi! I’m Tiffany. I’m prone to using a lot of words to make things sound lovely. Because of that I have written and re-written this about a dozen times just trying to be concise. You just want to know what you are getting into, right?

Here’s what you’ll find in my little space: writings/musings/stories on my life. I have a big(ish) family; five kids and my wonderful husband. Topics include: homeschool, travel, adoption, child loss/grief, marriage and living a Christ-centered life.

We strive to live simply and love well. Thanks for joining me on this journey. I’m so glad you’re here.

Day of Thao

Day  2 hours of Thao
1. Sitting on the bathroom counter, drinking water from a wooden spoon

2. After taking that privilege(?) away, I found him sitting on the bathroom counter, leaning over drinking water from the running faucet. Both times he had a full cup of water sitting next to him.

3. I walked into the playroom and he's sitting nicely at his table coloring. Then I look over at my craft area and a whole shelf is tipped over, books, papers, everything is everywhere. When I ask him what happened he explained that he saw what he thought was a Spiderman sticker behind the shelf. Turns out he was wrong. Oops.

4.  After cleaning up that mess (and making him deflate the pool toys he had blown up) I go back to the kitchen to find him peeling a hard boiled egg. He then sits next to me, puts it through a garlic press and eats it with a spoon. Hey, at least he's eating an egg.
5. I went back to doing taxes. Heard the water running AGAIN. This time I find him in the bathroom, sitting on the counter, filling up water balloons. Why not? (He seriously wanted to know)

6. He brought to me an empty Scotch tape roll. Why? Because he needed masking tape. Scotch tape didn't work. For what? It's a surprise. Should I be scared? Yes. But it's a surprise for Daddy for his (pretend) birthday that Thao insists is real. (Are we going to have this conversation again?)

7. For exactly 30 minutes he begged me for a sandwich, but I was on the phone so he had to wait. Finally,  he ate a frozen muffin. Why? Because he was waiting on his hot cheese sandwich. (22 seconds in the microwave) "Here's your sandwich Thao." I don't want it.

8. "Mommy, can I watch a movie?" Yes! :)
