Being Honest

**I started this blog about 3 or 4 days ago. When I went to post it, blogger messed up and deleted the post. So I started over tonight.**

I guess you may have noticed that I changed the blog title. I just couldn't look at the old title anymore. Every time I saw the words "Life More Beautiful", I thought "That's not true. Life isn't more beautiful right now."  We took 3 kids from Peru and turned their world and our world upside down. There is nothing normal for any of us.

I can't tell how much I know that prayer has carried us since the middle of May. Those prayers have been our life-support. Literally. During the past weeks, there have been many, many times where I couldn't even muster up a one-word prayer. I'm pretty sure those days are not over. 

So if you see us around town, at the church, in a store and we seem a little off, it's because there are 5 lives trying to adjust to living life upside down.

Thank you for your honesty, Marianne. It's a real service to those of us who are a few steps behind you in the adoption process. Please let us know if there are any specific areas we can pray over for you and Brent. We love you.
