5 kids, 9 states, 9 days in the van and now

Home.

What a challenge to be stuck:

With all those complaining attitudes
and fighting
to be powerless and let Chad be powerful--submitting constantly to his leadership
with air conditioning blowing loud and in my face on blast constantly
with 100 degree temperatures most of the way.

To receive the gift of:

836-knowing my country particularly the southwest more intimately
837-time with Chad
838-teaching my children through experiences with the grand Canyon and scorpians and desert sunsets..
839- and having faith for gas in death valley!
840-days with my sibs--hugging and kissing their kids, catching up, breathing life into one another
841-seeing the beauty of LA--relaxing in richness.
842-the kids taking huge risks in the pool...and improving
