It's been a while since I've written a blog post. Five years, but who's counting. I'd completely forgotten this blog even existed until about 30 minutes ago, but I had been recently toying with the idea of starting a blog, so here we are.
Honestly, my life has changed so dramatically since the last time I wrote anything in here that I'm not even sure where to start. The last time I was here I'd recently given birth to a beautiful baby girl. That baby girl turned 5 a couple of months ago. It's so hard to wrap my head around it. Especially because she's so smart. She handles conversations with adults like a pro. And don't even think about taking her to a museum and have this idea that you're going to teach her tons of awesome new things...she already knows. Yep...I made that mistake. I could probably thank PBS and the fact that she catches on to things quickly, for that.
The title I gave this blog was "Liszak, party of 3." Since originally creating this blog we are now a party of 7. And not only are we are party of 7, but 5 of those 7 are under the age of 6. Colossal craziness would be an accurate phrase for my household. But my favorite way to describe it is beautiful chaos. If you're thinking that I spent my last 5 years pregnant, you'd be pretty close, but off just a little bit. Two of those amazing children are foster children.
Since having my oldest, I've birthed two more beautiful baby girls and we became licensed foster parents. In 2018 we added 2 babies to our household and one 4 year old. Yep, 3 kids in one year. Don't worry, we're not crazy, we just have a whole lot of love to give out and yes, to answer your question, our hands ARE very full, but so are our hearts. Below is a picture of my crew. Due to security purposes I can't post face shots of any foster children so enjoy this picture of the tops of their heads! I know I do :)

And yes, I have a stroller that fits ALL of them and it is the most amazing stroller I have ever used. This is coming from the woman who's used at least 10 different strollers since having children.
