To Sara and Andra

So my one friends Sara is in Peru, she and her family of 4 became a family of 6 the other day. They are adopting a boy and girl. Sara and I met when we were 5!!! Our girls were in class together from preschool on until we moved to Alaska, she is such an awesome person....I miss her lots... she is the kind of person who would moon you if you were having a bad day just to make you feel better, and she taught Leia the fine art of making fart noises by inserting a straw in armpit and blowing...so you see why I love her!!
Andra, my other friend this blog is to is in China she and her family of 6 are missionaries in Hunchun (I have no idea if that is spelled right) I have known Andra since Leia was 5. Andra is an awesome woman too, her husband Jim always felt the calling to go into missions Andra got the calling in Wal-mart, when one of the kids were throwing a fit over some candy!! I miss her lots to.
I was just talking to Sara this morning in Peru, they will be there another 3 weeks, and I hope to talk to Andra at some point today.
I guess I am just having one of those "God, what do you want of me days?" I totally know it was His will for us to move here. We prayed about this, I am just looking at my friends lives and feeling like I should be doing more and I know that isn't right.
So Sara and Andra, I love you girls so very much and miss ya both like CRAZY!!! If we were together Sara, we could quote movies and drive Andra nuts, cuz she wouldn't know them!!

Dance

Leia has her first school dance this friday and I offered to champeron (or however it's spelled) she very quickly responded with a flat out "NO!". Now I know I am not like a "cool mom" I don't want to be her friend, but geez... I thought I'd be okay to go to the dance?? SO I asked why? Her response "I know how you are around music, mom. You'll dance, I'd die." She'd die?? The thought of me dancing would kill her?? Oh, well, I wouldn't want to kill her. So, I think I will call the school tomorrow and volunteer!!!
