New School Year

Things have really changed for us. Jessica is now back at school. As a mom it was very scary to have her drive that far by herself. She did make it without any problems. On the way back to school she stopped and ate with my sister and her son (who was headed here for college). James started school Monday and a part time job Tuesday. Courtney returned to school last Monday. So the first leg of the final year has begun. Yes, I am thrilled about that.
It also seems as if things might, may I stress might, be finally calming down a little for us.
God is faithful even when at times it feels like I have been forgotten. So to borrow some phrasing from a young nephew, "God thanks for not letting go of the string".

Summer Heat

Where in the world have I moved to that the temps are consistently over 100 degrees? May I add that those are the actualy temps before humidity is factored in. Kansas doesn't have high humidity? Ha! They do this year. There is just something so wrong with feeling like it is cooling off when the temps are still in the 90s.
Things are going well. God continues to provide. It is definately teaching us that we can let go of that control we think we have on our life and let him have it all. James is finishing his time at the hospital this week and then gearing up for his final year of school. Then what? That is the million dollar question. It does make for some interesting conversations in our house though. We don't have an idea where we will end up at this time. It is rather exciting to think of the possibilities. Just pray that God will give us clear direction where to go next.
