"God doesn't give children with special needs to strong people; He gives children with special needs to ordinary, weak people and then gives them strength. Raising a child with special needs doesn't take a special family, it makes a special family."--Author Unknown

Sweet Tooth...or Gums?

Thanks to many helpful suggestions we have finally found a combination of food that Sarah will eat. We had our first success tonight. We mixed rice cereal with apple juice and it was quite a hit. From looking at her I don't know if she even got any in her tummy, but she attempted quite a bit. Just to let you know starting out her bib was pink. I guess she has a sweet tooth (or gums as the case may be). She is also getting really good at sitting up. My little girl is getting so big!

We were at the church distribution center the other day and found a DVD with scripture stories on it. We got it for Sunday viewing and Josh and Daniel seem to like it. They are even learning things from it. For example today Matthew was doing something he wasn't supposed to and Josh said, "Stop being wicked, Matthew!" That wasn't quite what I wanted them to learn, but hey it's a start right?
