What an excellent post. My husband and I just started the paperchase to 2 children under 3 with AWAA. Reading what you have written here has been very insightful and encouraging. I wish you the very best! Take care!<BR/>-Bethany Taylor

Posting does become less prominent once you get back doesn't it? We struggle to update all the time. Your children are so beautiful, Praise the Lord for those little miracles. I really pray that a lot of our families can meet at an AWAA picnic in the future (when the kids get older). <BR/><BR/>In Christ<BR/>Dave & Amanda Duda
