Epic.

It's been a wild period in our lives.

an epic time.

a crazy six months.

Time for changes
  and time for sadness.

a lot of hugs and love.
a lot of support.

Reflection.
Realization.

Growing.

We have been finding the new normal.

Life on earth always changes
- that's something I'm confident about.
But it's not gradual or consistent changes.

Some times in life are more peaks and valleys.
 and unexpected cliffs.  and oceans.  and sandy beaches.

This is a E- less post.

So, um... That's some unattractive concrete that was under our floors. And some slightly more attractive feet of some super - awesome - helpful men!
We have had some flooding in our home.


Through it we have had a pretty wonderful experience. Our friends and family have been SO AMAZING. Jumped up to help, tear out damaged floor, move stuff. Offered homes to stay in, meals have been shared, childcare while we work. Nothing precious or irreplaceable was damaged and we are already on the way to repairs.



So blogging about kids has taken a backseat for the moment. (They are still cute.) Actully all other stuff should take a rest while we will hammer in some flooring, and replace a bit of the walls, repaint, and hopefully move back in before school starts.

Many times we have been awed by how God is at work in our lives, and how he orchestrates all things for our good. Even things like basement floods. There have been so very many things to be thankful for. We are learning, growing and being improved every day. ( And laughing with our friends as well. I'm not sure having a flood should include fun like this! )
