okay here is the update.
Basketball season is over. Adrian white team finished third. Mike recieved a very cool medal and is already looking forward to next years season. I will try to get him in a basketball camp this summer.
They will do the first part of his tests to get into the gifted program any day now. The school counselor does the first test and the gifted program coordinator does the second part. I asked her when they would do it and she said sometime between now and the end of the school year. I will be so relieved when it is done.
Mike has also decided to become a drag racer and is obsessed with cars these days. All I can say to him is "go talk to your dad about that" If it goes very far beyond turning the key and pushing the gas or the brake I am lost. Last night at church he started drawing pictures of the car he wants to drive someday and trying to sell them to everyone there for $1. We had a talk on the way home about how I would really like it if he didn't do that at church anymore and if he wanted to sell his pictures to maybe put them on the front of greeting cards. He thought that was a great idea and will be hitting you all up shortly to buy his cards.
Hope is the reason they invented cabinet locks and electrical outlet covers. I swear she is trying to give me a stroke some days. We have given up potty training again. I know she is ready but with the virus she had it was too hard to stay in big girl panties. I just haven't gotten the gumption up to try again. I am shooting for next Monday. I will let you know how it goes.Dora be ready for a phone call!
Her new favorite phrase is "whatever" and she rolls her eyes when she says it.
I took the kids to the Easter egg hunt that the church put on. They had this person in a bunny suit and it scared her to death! she got tons of candy and had alot of fun but when we got home
the only thing she could talk about was that BIG bunny. I was afraid we would be up all night but so far no nightmares!
Kenny is on vacation this week from his paying job. He has a list longer than my leg of things to do here so I don't plan on seeing him too much. He loves driving Hilda Honda to work everyday. He also loves his new garden tiller. He put almost as much work into it as he did into the car and it is a beautiful thing! Our garden is ready to plant any day now.
I have been very busy with stuff for the church. The kids choir is awesome. We has our first performance with seven beautiful and talented girls. I am so thankful for these girls who know what they are doing so I do not have to teach them to much. They are actually teaching me a few things. Last week we got one new girl and Mike. Hopefully next practice we will have Justin too. I dreamed last night that i got to practice and there were 100 kids there.
I have also been doing alot of reading about Emergent or Emerging worship. It has become a bit of an obsession of mine. I am going to a worship conference on it in April and cannot wait!
I have alot more to add but no more time right now!
