VanDyck...Party of...how many???

Well...today I find myself asking all sorts of questions...you see in our home we have 3 wonderful children...we have a fantastic foreign exchange student, and an Iraqi currently in basic training...plus my husband and I...many have asked...why do you "want" more??? After the last few days...I do find myself wanting more...but I am not sure I want to go the infant way...I love having older kids...our exchange student had a friend over for a bit...so 2 teen boys who eat everything not tied down...2 growing boys who eat certain things not tied down and a girl who...well, on occation eats...I did figure out...I need a bigger vehicle...I am thinking a short bus...that way everyone will have a nice comfortable seat!

So in the process this week...I signed my girl up for figure skating, the 2 little boys in hockey, and my "big boy" is still in soccer at least for 2 weeks. I also am trying to do blankets for Project Linus, military care packs, and I found The Pink Slipper Project this morning...I am going to try to make 10 slippers this month...I think I can...I think I can...

You know I find when I am thinking...wow, this is bad...I can't handle anymore...life is just not good...I look around at others and then see my life in a very different way. Yes, times may be tough right now...but I have wonderful kids, a supporting husband, and a family close by that wants nothing more than to make sure we are happy and well...looking around...I have it all...

I hope you all have a wonderful day...
