**Just in Case You Were Wondering**
- 5KidMom
- I am the wife to a wonderful man named Will, and Mom to 5 amazing kids. Both Will and I were widowed before we met. We had 3 children between us when we married. We welcomed a new addition 1 1/2 years later. The pregnancy and birth were wild, so we decided to be "done". God had a different plan. We were introduced to international adoption, and started that process 11/04. We brought our 5th child home from Ethiopia 4/06. You could say our kids are Your's, Mine, Our's and Someone Else's. 8^) We are just grateful that they are all OUR'S! Someday, we will adopt from Ethiopia again. We know there is an "older child" that is meant to be part of our family. We trust that God will let us know when the time is right. Parenting is the hardest and most rewarding thing I have ever taken on. I am not an expert, but I'm happy to share any insights I gain along the way. I also appreciate any tips I can glean from my readers. After all, it takes a village, right?!

Did only one of your kids dress up? His costume is great-- I'd eat him up!
Yeah, it might seem silly, but only one kid did dress up. Kayla was sick, and the bigger boys were far more concerned with going to the church carnival (costumes optional) to get their haul of candy. Kayla and Grace stayed home with me to help hand out candy and bake pumpkin seeds. Grace was in bed, fast asleep, before the boys got home. 8^)
