We're Back!

After ten days of battle-of-the-lice, I believe we have won!  After the daily, tedious search the results are in... ZERO... nothing was found!  So, we will continue to pick and look and do diligence but for this we give thanks!

We had blessings from this adventure.  Laughter even amidst the daily drain of laundry, vacuuming and picking.  Don't get me wrong, there were hard moments and Wednesday was a particularly hard day of exhaustion and discouragement.  Yet, God gave us sweet bonding, rolls of laughter at the dinner table, songs that we'll remember and sing for joy...

The girls came up with this rendition.  On the night we were treating everyone for the second time, the girls came to me donning shower caps, bouncing to this tune...

Every blessing You pour out
I'll turn back to praise
When the darkness closes in, Lord
Still I will say

Blessed be the name of the Lord
Blessed be Your name
Blessed be the name of the Lord
Blessed be Your glorious name

You give and take away

LICE! (whispered)
You give and take away

LICE! (whispered)
My heart will choose to say
Lord, blessed be Your name'


Mimi thinks she is so funny!

Soaking up the solution!

Shower cap beauties... lovely!
