(and we'll be village-style neighbors for a year! eeeeeek!) everyday about a dozen things remind me of you guys. i walked by a display of croutons in the grocery store and of course couldn't help but think of silo. give him a hug from aunt lizzy! kitty, i learned so much from watching you. you are an amazing parent. and you’ve already transitioned into a mother of two so gracefully. i’m glad you have the additional help right now and know that you are being strengthened for the next season of your journey.

However, I don't doubt your ability to parent successfully (and with sanity!) two children. It just takes your parenting brain a bit to adjust to splitting in two directions simultanously. Mine has split once and is trying desperately to do it again :) Enjoy the village! Love, Sara The village is wonderful and necessary, especially now.

Don't really know what that is like. I told you, I'm all about everyone living close by. Not only to help each other, but to share in daily life and celebrations like birthdays. You know me, I'm always going to try to get you to move back to your family- it's just me. It's my heart. Sorry, you are stuck with us. P.S. Can you believe that I actually remembered to get on your blog and then even write you a note. This cyber blog thing is totally new to me. It kind of cracks me up. :) That’s why you need to move to Ohio- Not Africa. :) I’ve always longed for a “village”. Don’t really know what that is like.

You sound confident. Silas will be a wonderful big brother. And he'll be one because you're a good momma, and Dave is a good daddy. Thank you for all the wonderful comments on my journal, too.
