Still Here

Sorry for not posting over the last month. I didn't mean to wait that long but I've been having trouble with me computer at home and can't post anything. Hopefully I've got that all worked out "time will tell".

We are all doing great. Shayla finished up her first year of preschool and is out of school this week. She really misses going to school and asked each day if she can go back. Summer school starts next week so she'll be excited to see all of her friends again.

Nathan still has school for two more weeks. He is very excited about moving on to first grade. He is doing a great job at school and we've had almost two weeks of good reports. He will miss school and seeing his friends.

Tomorrow we are off to Florida. My brother (Uncle John) got all of us tickets to see the space shuttle blast off. Nathan can not wait. It will be so good to see him. He has not seen Shayla since we got back from China last year.

Over this past month my heart has just been aching for China and all the earth quake victims and then the Chapman family. We have been praying for them daily. I can not imagine the pain of losing a child. I watch my kids play and smile each day. When they get on my last nerve I remember and rejoice that they are here. So many children and families have been torn apart over this past month. Please remember to lift up everyone to the Lord.

12:12 Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer.
