Much life has happened since then. Like most of us, my husband and I are trying to decide whether to try and hold on to our home of 10 years, or put it on the market. The last 5 years has been kicking our behind (to put it politely) and we have been breathlessly treading water ever since. We are tired!! We are wondering when we be able to catch our breath and feel some financial security. It is just not getting any better even though there are the occasional reports that things are "slowly recovering". Anyone else feel the "slow recovery" yet??
Anywho......my oldest child is back at college after a wonderful month long visit. We miss him so terribly and savored every moment with him while he was back home. He loves university life and is also enjoying a recent private dorm room since his roommate moved out. First born is loving this!!!
My second child auditioned for his high school musical and won a part. To his dismay, a musical meant long rehearsal hours of singing and learning tap dance. Not exactly what he had envisioned, however he has stepped up to the plate and embraced his vocal cords and dancing feet wholeheartedly. In between the rigors of rehearsals and homework, he has also set his sights on a pretty high school cheerleader in a grade above him. I am now praying for this cheerleader to hold my son's heart kindly and righteously.
My third, and praise God, the last child of my heart is now sitting with her after school tutor!! The angels are singing as I write that!! You see, I no longer have the daily job of dissecting academic information from my sweet, pre-pubescent teenage daughter! (and all God's people shouted "Amen"!)
What does your Wednesday afternoon look like??
Today I am thankful for the uninterrupted routine. For the place I now call home. For the love of my husband who wakes up everyday and keeps trying to provide for his family.
