Time is such an issue
|
Life is flying past. We are very busy. That is such an understatement. So far this year we have added a delightful new granddaughter (grand child #5), lost a precious dog, bought 2 new buildings to move our family business into, some of us have been to Michigan and back while a couple of others did a coast to coast motorcycle trip, We celebrated 27 years of marriage. One son graduated college and began his grad work. Our youngest turned 5. We now have 2 married, 1 in grad school, 1 in high school, 1 in jr high, 1 in elementary and 1 still preschool. I feel stretched. Our 17 year old nephew is staying with us for the summer. Our "extra" son who lived with us last year before his marriage had a very serious motorcycle accident - he is healing but it will be slow. The girls have done leadership camp, tennis camp, and crosspoint. It is now the end of July and I'm not sure where the summer has gone. We do get to play some - not as much as we have in past summers since we are moving the business. The pool is still getting a work out most days however. The birthday party we had for Kelsey & Beth was big fun. The drought seems to be ending - it will take time to catch up - most of my plants look like it is early June not late July. Will & Jenn's garden is producing great however since they were able to water some. My herbs look good also and we have been picking and using as well as drying. Kate's health is pretty good - God has been gracious to show us a diet that works well for her and keeps her off most meds. Leah will go to school this year and Drew is doing a pre-school so she will get a little break with only one to home during those hours. Other fun of the summer was curriculum fair. We really enjoy getting to see people we don't usually see any other time of the year. The Hendry's were with us again and we so enjoy their company. This is the rambling up date that I should have done ages ago. Time to go - we are moving the paint booth to the new building today and Beth has soccer practice, Gerrit is invited to a little birthday party, John and Beth have practice at church for a band/skit and Redeemed thing.... Life continues to fly |
