It’s Not About Me…

I haven’t written in so long…  I’ve just been way too busy living life!  :)  Just kidding, but only slightly.   Robby was here for almost a whole week!!  Wow!  I have had a great week and thoroughly enjoyed having all 4 of my kiddos home - even if for only a short time.  (See the picture below of all 4 of them!)  Ahh….  so sweet to spend time with family! 

 Well, around here there is nothing new under the sun!  We have been in our house here in SC for over 3 years now, which is a record!!!  3 years to the day is the longest we have been in any single house since we were married 24 years ago!  It’s really cool to have such a stable life that I can say there is nothing new under the sun.  How cool!  My 1 year anniversary of becoming paralyzed, 8/29, came and went - honestly without me even thinking much about it!  Another how cool!  I can walk and walk well now.   I feel like I am more stable, on the inside and outside, then I have been in such a long time!  Years!!!   I like it!

This homeschool year is busy and I am enjoying it immensely.  We are doing a co-op on Fridays, I am doing a Bible study on Tuesday nights, and I am helping out with the middle school youth group on Wednesday nights (am doing that instead of helping with AWANA this year), J.Jay loves co-op, especially being on the worship team, and his second favorite class is his physics class which is also on Tuesday afternoons.  He is also thrilled to be starting piano lessons back next week!  Elijah loves co-op also, and he loves SPARKS (AWANA) which just started back last night.  And he loves, loves, loves school!  Yea!  Homeschooling rocks!

Brittney is a senior this year and so far she is doing great!  She likes her school and loves her work and is just a happy person in general.   You can’t say THAT about many 17 year old girls! 

Greg is always doing one of two things - working like a madman, or playing basketball!  He’s working harder these days than he has worked during our entire marriage, and rarely complains.   He has a potential long-term deal that we are praying goes through.  If so, we will be able to get back on track financially once and for all.  Pray that goes through!

So, I don’t have much to say - but I’ve decided that that is a good thing.   We are in the same house, I am walking, our homeschool is going great, Brittney loves school and work, Greg is on the brink of having a long-term project, we just got to spend time with Robby.  Hey, I know I say this alot but what more can I say?  It’s all good

Here are the kiddos - l-r: Brittney, Robby, J.Jay, and Elijah down in front.  :)  Gotta love ‘em!
