On a more uplifting note, we are staying super busy with our awesome friends here in Italy.  It is amazing how you can enter a foreign country knowing not a single soul other than your spouse and child, and walk away with some of the greatest friendships.  We have been welcomed into friends homes, and are rarely home between our gatherings and other everyday commitments.  

Kennedy is doing so well in school, dance, & gymnastics.  We are learning everyday how to adjust to this new "attitude" she has acquired; it seems to be contagious with the girls her age.  She is still 90% sweet, and consistently amazes me with her knowledge and understanding of God and Love.  She is also very big on letter sounds right now, so we talk funny (ex:"thththe dddddog is bbbbbig"). We are about to embark on her 4th year of life...4 years, where is my baby?!  Oh, she has changed so much.  We will have more Kennedy updates as we celebrate her birthday in a few weeks.

This weekend is filled with K's friend's birthday party, dinner at Bierengel with friends, teaching children's church, and shopping for my Bible study group.  I'm hoping that I can fit some house cleaning and hairbow making in the schedule somewhere.  Off to bed I go....
