Since the last 2 are foster-to-adopt you can replace your therapies with all the parent visits, CPS visits, yada, yada, yada. This is why I love your blog. I get good tips on how to stay sane, or just to commiserate. I'm impressed by you every post.

It makes me laugh at how similar some of our kids are... how many times have one of us told a story about Marcus or Jacob and the other one has said, "uh huh! that could be my kid!"<BR/><BR/>Your stories about Lu crack me up because that could be my Maggie. This is the girl that told me she wanted to go to Vietnam (she was born there). I asked her why, expecting to have an emotional, heart to heart about it. She put her hands on her hips and said, "Mom! I am the princess from Vietnam. They are my people. They want to see me." Indeed!!!<BR/><BR/>hang in there... I am praying both girls will start to gain weight and thrive... I know from our early Marcus days how stressful that is. I wish you were closer and I could give you some rest.

That sounds like an eventful week or has it ...Wow. That sounds like an eventful week or has it been an eventful month? Year? I like to see how other people out in the world are doing but it sounds like I need to prayer that your little ones want to eat and gain weight soon! I know how hard it is to have milk and not need it. I had twins and my milk was overflowing to say the least. I breastfeed them for 9 months and then switched to formula. Not to discourage you, because I think this is RARE, but it took me a couple of YEARS before my milk fully went aware. How terrible is that? A friend of mine said I should have taken supplements (from the Health food store) or gone to my doctor (apparently they have pills to decrease milk supply) or wrapped myself in a tight bandage. I didn't know any of that and apparently suffered unnecessarily. I am worried about your blood draw. Leukemia is not something you need to deal with right now. The Lord has given you enough. I will pray about that tonight. We can only handle so much before we need to say, I think you've trusted me enough. I hope your kiddos continue to progress and all of them begin to thrive. You are a sweet family who is trying to provide the best home possible for your little critters. I will pray that you may you sleep well and have peace in your home tonight.Holladay Familyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13500744003445154197noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12830417.post-68853669902752246182008-04-04T18:35:00.000-07:002008-04-04T18:35:00.000-07:00Wow.

A couple of things: 1) I wish I was one of your girls and had to gain weight (which I REALLY don't), so you could make me delicious, rich, calorie-filled treats in the name of health, 2) As for the nursing thing, I'm not sure there's anything you can do about the drying up. . .other than wait. I'd be interested to know your bad advice, as I didn't receive any advice when I chose not to breast-feed Noel. It just takes a long time, is painful, and is not fun. And, my heavens. . .you enjoy those bottle feedings. Choosing to bottle/breast-feed is entirely your decision and you have enough things to worry about besides the annoying opinions of others. 3) The Biggest Loser. Let's discuss. Could I really lose 80 lbs. in 3 months? That's INSANE. And if those boys cry ONE MORE TIME, I'm going to kill them. Wusses. All of them.
