December

It's so hard to believe that December is over!!  Seriously... where did it go??? 

Update on Brazil: Well...  We sent off paperwork to be legalized in Atlanta... and they sent it back... We spent another $335 and sent it all off again...  Now we are waiting to see what happens!   We haven't had any real bites on the house...  BUT... I'm not stressing!  We know we should see a pick up in house traffic in January.  And... well... the Visa process is... a process... very similar to the Adoption paperwork process.  It's a lot of hurry up and wait!  Unfortunately, we also know the Brazilian government's way of doing things.  BUT... we also know the ONE who is greater than ALL!  He can orchestrate our Papers to land on the RIGHT person's desk... and for the RIGHT family to show up on our doorstep!  So we wait...  holding tight to the Savior and the One who has promised GOOD in ALL things! 

Update on the Fryar Five:  We've all passed around our share of sicknesses this November and December.  All in All, we have really been very healthy; and for that, we are SO Thankful!!  Chris continues to work very hard with NICS. He is the Remote Business Manager and takes care of the books and business planning for 3 NICS schools, including our school. He also still works in the Finance department for NICS processing support.  I am still enjoying being at home!  I love finding craft projects to do with the boys and trying to teach them anything I can.  I really really love my Monday morning nap with Sarah-Bethany.  It's the only day that we don't have anywhere to go!!  Caleb and Negash are still loving each other one minute and fighting the next... you know... brothers!  It's always comical to see them search for each other and miss each other if they've been apart more than 2 hours!  Sarah-Bethany is now 7 months old! She has 2 sweet bottom teeth, and just said "Dada" yesterday!  She's starting to have some separation anxiety when we aren't here.  I just love our little family of 5!  We had the best Christmas to date!  So much fun as we keep trying to keep the Santa thing going.  Negash also got to play in snow for the first time!  So fun!!  

Here are some pictures!! :)
