That is the richness and depth of our journey! Happy birthday to Adele! What a special day for Keane! Mrs Sallie is cheering for him. Happy Anniversary and prayers for your family. <br /><br />Appreciate the days- the special, the Mundane even the hard ones.

I was sitting with a few asking if they had brothers or sisters. He said, "I have a sister and I have new baby coming. We are adopting!" He said with such pride. You are doing a great job! My youngest is now 20. I, too, remind young mothers that there are good times and harder times but they are all phases. And, even in the harder phases, you have to remind yourself about the good no matter how tired. It will pass but so do the mostly sweet phases. Try to relentlessly focus on the present. I am always at my worst when I go to control mode. The truth is it's mostly out of fear. A wise Christian counselor told me that although it's natural to parent from a fear place, it is never where God would have you parent from. The good news is that every day, really every minute allows a new opportunity to refocus!!

It's so tempting to add multiple things back in at once, but I made it this far for the purpose of seeing how things really affect me, so I can't go back now! It has definitely sparked a lot of conversations about what we'll eat and keep in the house going forward!Katehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14083547016514008063noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-889530069555123621.post-84907594607104656862016-02-23T17:31:56.384-05:002016-02-23T17:31:56.384-05:00Yes ma'am.

So I am gluten free. Each time I have eliminated sugar something new sticks. And things will taste much sweeter, sometimes to the point of making me feel nauseated. Good for you for making this journey.
