What a wild life we lead...

Here at the Wu Household we tend to lead a wild life while being common in the same moment. We have a lot going on all of the time. It is busy and crazy but truth be told I would not change a thing. I have a great husband, that I will call Big Daddy. He has always been and always will be all about the family. He works hard all of the time and thinks three steps ahead like a chess game. I have always since day one felt safe with him and that is everything for me. We have four great kiddos. Girl kid 1 is 20 and has recently flown the coop to spread her wings on her own. I think she is learning that life out in the world isn't always easy...but you get out of it what you put into it. Boy kid 1 is 15 and is quite a musician. He plays the alto and soprano saxophones primarily but tinkers with other instruments as well. He is currently a Life Rank in Boy Scouts and working toward his black belt in Tae Kwon Do. He is a hard worker and in his down time loves to just hang out with his friends and play video games. Girl kid 2 is just shy of 11. She is full of love and energy. She is an active Girl Scout in a newly bridged to Cadette level troop that I lead. She also plays softball and is such a team player. Things aren't easy for Girl kid 2--but she works hard every day. She has a moderate to severe hearing loss and is bilaterally aided. The hearing aides help but they don't solve all of the hearing difficulties. Boy kid 2 is 2 and on fire. He is learning so much everyday by climbing things, jumping off of things, trying different foods, and he constantly mimics us while he is learning new vocabulary. On top of the kiddos and all of their shenanigans, we now have 6 chickens living in a coop in the backyard. Aunt Peg, Ethel, Lucy, Mary, Penny, and Minerva joined us in April and they are a constant source of enjoyment. As of late, facebook sends me flashback posts of what I posted on that same date in past years. It has been a lot of fun to recall all of these little moments. It is time to document the good, the bad, and the utterly beautiful of our lives and thus comes the start of this blog. I will work to blog about our everyday stuff, extra-curricular goodies, coop life, and maybe even the fun products that I get to try here and there. This is going to be an every evolving work in process. Welcome to our world.
