The Mentos Experiment

A friend of mine was sharing the other day that she never really knew what was going to set her son off on any given day. She used the illustration of dropping Mentos into a 2-liter of diet soda and watching the whole thing blow sky-high. After one summer hosting, one winter hosting, and a month together in our adoption process, we can relate.

Now that we've been to the movies and the pool, what else cam we do before dinner?

 

We have so many beautiful moments together.

 

Then there are the floodgates of tears or anger when someone feels neglected or offended, or left out. We battle weird displays of entitlement, and delight in moments of gratitude. We are learning to love. Learning that our family believes in forever love, forever commitment, and it's taking forever to let those truths sink in!

We trust in our Forever God who leads us, day by day.
