It's been a while....

September seems like yesterday, but so much as happened. We put the house up for sale. It is sort of a bummer and sort of a relief. Karl has been out of work for almost 11 months. It has been a tough year, but one that has really allowed us to get back to the basics, so to speak. We spend a lot of family time together. Lots of time for playing games and getting creative. Liam and Karl have really bonded, no that they weren't close before, but Karl being him every day allows for loads of quality time with our little guy. So, in all the upheaval, there have been great blessings. We are surrounded by lots of love and support that reveals itself in ways that I am often quite surprised by. The generosity of family and friends has been overwhelming at times. We are surrounded by abundance of all things good. While the storm is blowing outside, I have managed to stay rather centered, calm and faith filled. A few weeks ago, Liam told me to stand next to Karl and then he put his arms around our legs, hugged us and said, "We are a family". So, so blessed!
