Hello Family! and Friends!
Just thought I'd let you all know how things are going at the Stephens' home. First, I wanted to let everyone know that the mass break-in and thievery that occurred last week only disrupted one day and everyone is pretty much back to rolling forward. Several teachers created grant requests on donorschoose.org and have receieved funds to replace their stolen equipment. I am also pretty sure we are getting some funds from insurance etc. Mostly I think people were just angry that someone would do that.
Charisse and I organized our lives. Or at least created concrete diner times and bedtime routines. They are working very well so far. we are happier, getting more done, and have improved our family and personal scripture study and prayers significantly! We are feeling pretty good about it. Also of note is that we are motivating ourselves by consumerism. I want a replacement pair of Bose Headphones and Charisse wants a sewing machine. I figure if we continue with the successes we've seen, Charisse is going to be pluging away making cool suff on a shiny sewing machine, but I won't have any idea that she is doing it because Bose Quietcomfort 15 noise canceling headphones are freakin amazing.

So before you all stop reading because you are bored, here is a video of Henry.
He is so cute! He will be walking on his own before you know it! I hope you both get what you want, and sooner than later!
