Well, I must admit that being a mother of four is more tiring, frantic and overwhelming than I ever could have imagined. I also have to say that I love my kids more than ever, I just can't spend any time with them individually.
OnaMarie left today to head back to her normal life. These last two weeks have been incredibly helpful to Shane and I, but not exactly your restful, relaxing type of vacation for her. She spent many hours up in the middle of the night feeding and burping babies, and she spent her days in the bathroom with Savannah trying to conquer potty training. I just about had an anxiety attack when she left today. Luckily my mom will be able to step in and help out. I couldn't do it, not even a fraction of it, without help.
I pray daily that I'll do with this experience the best that I can. I've been very humbled. I'm so grateful that I have great family and friends who tell me that it will all work out, even when I'm fairly sure that it's not going to.
I'm still extremely anxious about our impending move. Everything I've ever known is here in Utah. My family, friends, mountains...wow, what a great adventure we're about to embark on. Hopefully I'm up to this task, and hopefully I handle it better than I'm handling the mother of four thing...yikes!!
No other news to report right now, just keep praying that we all keep it together here at the Snow household in Pleasant Grove, Utah. We need all the help that we can get! :)

Brookie! Hang in there! Alot of changes even without Savannah's potty training. Wow. You can do it though. It's always hard to adjust to the new "normal" because we know that it never returns to that old normal, does it? Breathe deeply and take it a minute at a time. Love you!!!
