We originally started this blog (years ago) to keep track of the every day things in our lives that we didn't want to forget but knew that we would in time. As life got in the way, we posted less and less until March 2010 when Matthew's arrival rocked our world. Now we use this blog to let everyone know how Matthew is progressing and the big events going on at the Hoy House. We are so appreciative of everyone who has read our story and has thought and prayed for Matthew and for us.
Looking around at the kids doing their thing-- reading, working on homework, playing school-- I can finally say that this is what I imagined life with kids to be like.
Until this year, I often thought to myself "this is not at all what I expected". Maybe it is because I don't remember when I was really little, and therefore my own memories (or lack thereof) clouded my expectations. I do remember playing school, and doing homework, and reading. Now feels familiar. This is what I expected when I imagined my life with kids. It only took 10, almost 11, years to see it.
