Long Time, No Blog

Things are busy here-busier than usual since we're getting ready for our big move. We'll be leaving here in mid-December and spending the holidays in Minnesota with our beloved families. Then it's off to Everett, Washington and the surrounding area. We still have no place to live there and that's making me rather nervous, but something will turn up, I'm sure.

The kids are doing great. Micah made honor roll and got a Good Citizenship award last quarter. Marissah is in Project Gold and Pep Club and really enjoying herself. Aaron is....well, he's Aaron. He loves Kindergarten, but the past week he's been getting into a little trouble. Nothing major, just the usual little boy stuff: playing in the bathroom, talking at rest time, spitting (SPITTING?!). He's a little ball of fire, that's for sure.

Please keep our Gracie Girl in your prayers. She's been diagnosed with pulmonary edema (excess fluid in her lungs) and cardiomyopathy (enlarged heart due to the excess fluid). She can't see very well and she can't hear at all. My gut is telling me that the time is getting near, but the vet says she's fine. :/ She's on medication now, but I'm not seeing any improvement in her breathing.

The weather has really turned here. It's only 50 degrees this morning and our high today will only be 55. I suppose this will help me acclimate to the sub-zero tundra of Minnesota. Ha.

Here is a picture of my little fire ball. Don't ask how this came about, as I didn't take it (Daddy did). In any case, it's funnier than hell and it's totally Aaron!

{{{{{}}}} Gracie Girl and you are in my prayers. I didn't realize you were moving so soon! So, how far is your family from here?? Any chance of being able to meet half way? I'd love to see you again! Your little ball of fire sounds like he makes life interesting (and fun!). I have one (or is it 3?? LOL) of those. ;-)
