We may or may not ever be able to make an announcement that "we're pregnant"...but we have come to understand that the blessing is the fact that however parenthood happens, it is a miracle! ....... Now we have been home with our precious blessing from Russia since August 2007. Join us on our fun and crazy ride that we call "life with this child of mine."

Getting Out of Work...Again
The other night, I was helping Iliya clean his room. Oh, how his room is packed. There are days that I'd like to downsize...and then I think that maybe our house will sell sometime in the near future and we will be able to buy another house that has a playroom so that he can spread out a little bit, and that a big bed will one day fit into his room. We'll see.

But really, the point of the story is that we were cleaning up a huge mess.

The final thing to be done was to put the monkeys from his Barrel 0' Monkeys back into the barrel. He put several monkeys in the barrel and then straightened up, looked up at me, and said, "No, mama, I not clean up monkeys." "Why not?" I asked...to which he replied, "No, I not clean up monkeys...cause I busy."

Busy? Doing what? Cleaning up the monkeys? His rationale is great!

Sounds like he could write a book of cleaning excuses!

We all have to prioritize and sometimes the little monkeys just have to wait! ;)
