Our Mission Trip to the Dominican Republic

We had an awesome time on our mission trip recently. I really want to take the time to reflect and write out my thoughts, but time is not on my side lately. Here is a video that will give you an idea of the amazing experience!!

Things I never knew until I had a 3 1/2 year old dropped in my lap!

*New - Leaving a 4 year old with a small cup filled with peanut butter is never going to be a pretty sight!
I never knew how many times I day I would be asked, "Momma, are we going this way?" & "Momma, what is that noise?"
I never knew that I would be so tickled when Wyman said "Momma, I love you" for the 1st time.
I never knew how liberating it is to call a child by their first name followed by their middle name.
I never knew that wiping your hiney was optional after you do boom-boom (what Wyman calls going #2)
I never knew that I could come up with such creative ideas to get a child to do what I would like him to.
I never knew that it wasn't a good idea to give a 3 1/2 year old pancake sticks with syrup to dunk when you have just dressed him for the day.
I never knew that grabbing your crotch didn't mean you had to pee...you could just be grabbing your crotch....just to grab it.
I never knew that the sleeve of your shirt doubles as a napkin...or kleenex.
I never knew that boy boogers were so different than one year old girl boogers.
