Yesterday our family grew, we added Isabel, a 5 year old girl and Hilde's best friend here in England. Izzie's mom will be in training for the Air Force for the next 6 weeks in the States, and rather than pull her out of school and send her back to the States to live with other family members, we offered to take her here. It keeps Isabel in school, and with all of her routine and friends here. Hilde and Enoch are thrilled to have another person to play with and we are happy to help out.
It will be interesting to see how everyone gets along. Dave has been doing a lot of thinking on family units on his blog. I think this experience will help our whole family learn to be more loving, caring, and thoughtful of others. In between all of the fights of course. Anyway, look for pics later and updates in the next few weeks.
