Learned this week: Though not new news, I had a great reminder at church this week of the ministry of motherhood (the sermon was on missions and living on mission, and was just exactly what I needed to hear at this stage of mothering).

So thankful for: Silas started giving real hugs this week- and I REALLY needed that!

Looking forward to:  Our house inspection is this Friday on the house we're under contract to buy- can't wait to see it and walk around it again!!

Other Highlights:  I edited week 22 because I realized that I forgot to include our great news from the meeting with the specialist!  Definitely a highlight of that week!!
