A Little While

OK, So I think it has been long enough since I last wrote an update. The end of the school year became quite busy for us. Dustin was plowing through another semester- he passed and we are on to the last semester in August. Noah had so many end of the year programs, parties, and a try at T-Ball. Noah liked TBall when it was his turn to hit, or when he was the catcher. He did not like playing the outfield. He did not like TBall when the temperature reached 100 degrees either. It was good fir him. Daniel and Jodi enjoyed playing in the dirt each game. Bath, dinner, books, bed was our moto for the month of April and May.


I spent the last weekend of May at Flute camp. I went to it all excited and left quite deflated. I have not practiced my flute once in a month. I lost the drive for some reason. I have gotten back into my summer reading and have read many books with more on my to-read-list.

I honestly have no idea where the month of June went. It was here and now it is gone. I feel like I don't have much to show for it. The kids have taken awhile to learn how to play with each other all day long again. The days seem longer to me. I understand how parents are very much ready for their children to be in school again. I wish that at times as they are pestering, fighting, or yelling at each other. Where did the love go?

We have had to take Jodi into an immunologist. She gets every little infection and it always ends in her chest and on antibiotics and breathing treatments. Her blood work turned out normal, but they are keeping her on the breathing treatments twice a day for the next 6 months. It is really hard to keep up with it, but hopefully the infections will stay away because of it.

We are going to Kingman for the 4th of July to spend a few days with Grandma Joan- Dustin's mom. It will be good to see her again. It has been too long since our last visit and the kids miss their Grandma. I love going to smaller towns to watch the fireworks as well. Craig, CO or Kingman, AZ sure is a lot cooler than here and less crowded as well!

So, Happy 4th of July to everyone. I love this country and the liberty and freedom we enjoy. I love the spirit of those founding fathers and hope we can all find that spirit again. Happy Birthday USA!
