OUR PLANS MULTIPLIED: Jenny Logic

OUR PLANS MULTIPLIED

In the beginning, JD adamantly only wanted two children. I thought that four would be perfect. Once we caught God's vision of putting orphans into families, our plan was multiplied by God. We are currently blessed with 12 children; five biological, six adopted and one more waiting in Ethiopia. Our first adoption was from the U.S., the next three were from Liberia, West Africa, and our last two were from Ethiopia. We are supporting our 12th child in Ethiopia after her adoption could not pass court.

Jenny Logic

Today was the public school's open house. We got to meet Tori's teacher as well as Julia's (that Tori had last year) and Selah's (that Julia had in first grade). I decided to surprise the girls with a celebratory Chinese lunch. Since I took the girl's school supplies in today, the last thing to get them ready for school is to clean out their drawers and closet and bring out the school clothes. Here's where the Jenny logic sets in....

The last time Tori and Julia's room got a good clean out was several months ago when I got in there. I just can't bear to bring in the fall clothes in the mess, so it has to be thoroughly cleaned out. Just thinking of cleaning it out made me remember that I have new twin comforters for the girls to replace their worn ones. The issue that arose then is that the walls are scuffed and worn and don't match the new comforters. So the end result is that i had to buy paint today and start painting their room SO THAT they would be ready for school on Tuesday. (For some crazy reason, JD didn't understand how painting the walls got them ready for school....)

So, check back for some room shots and I'm off to move the bed and paint the other side of the room.
