We made several trips into Washington, D.C. and didn’t quite get to all the Smithsonian museums (there are so many!), but we did a lot, walked the entire National Mall, and made so many memories together.
One of the sweetest parts of this lifestyle has been watching all the kids, different ages, 14 and under come together and live this life together. Some of the older boys teaching the younger ones how to fish: which bait to use, what fish to go for, even which pond had the bigger catches. Hearing my kids talk about things I’ve never even said or taught them is just the cutest, and honestly the coolest. Watching them play and display patience, generosity, kindness, and love has been a real treat for me. I’m just so proud of them and so thankful for this time.
Along the way, we’ve met some amazing families, and our kids made so many sweet new friends. I honestly love all these precious little ones we’ve had the joy of interacting with they are all so wonderful and my heart is so full.
Almost 4 months into this , and we are absolutely loving it. Here’s to the memories we’ve made, the friends we’ve met, and the adventures still ahead.
