Update on Mom

On Monday, Mom contacted our family doctor. He sent her to a surgeon.
The surgeon said that she needed surgery right away. Dad took her to the
hospital and by 6:00 she was in the operating room. The surgery went
very well. Even thought she was in a lot of pain, she was able to get up and
go to the bathroom.
Mom came home from the hospital on Wednesday. The doctor told her that
she could not lift anything over 5lbs and she can not drive for two weeks.
She is still is a lot of pain because she has a 5 inch vertical incision on her
right abdomen. We are all glad Mom is home. Please keep on praying that she
will have a very speedy recovery :)

Please Pray!!!!

Hey everyone!!



Please pray.for my Mom. On Friday, she started having cramps
in her abdomen and my Dad took her to Urgent Care. After that,
they sent her the hospital. The doctors thought that she had
gall stones. So the Doctor sent her home and made an ultra sound appointment for Tuesday.
She was in a lot of pain that day. On Saturday, her pain got worst.
Thankfully, she made it through the night.
Today, about 11:00 she went back to the hospital. She just got home
around 9:30. While she was there, all they did was give her more medicine
(for pain, nausea and swelling) and she had a CT scan and ultra sound.
They found out that it was not Gall Stones it was a rare hernia.
She still has her ultra sound appointment on Tuesday.
The doctor said he would not do anything until then.
Hopefully she will not need surgery. :(

Please Please Pray she will get better.

If you are praying please feel free to let us know by
leaving a comment .

Thanks everyone !!

Andrew Goes to Kindergarten

On August 13th, Andrew started kindergarten. Mom's plan was to homeschool him.
However, 2 days before school started , we learned that Andrew would have to attend public school until we could get our homeschooling documents from our accountability group.
Then we would have to get permission from our home state to homeschool Andrew.
Dad and Mom plan on leaving Andrew in school for now but they are in the process of getting approved to homeschool him. Mom is not liking Andrew being in school.
She misses him and is upset because she is not getting to teach Andrew.
My Mom doesn't like to miss anything we do. Andrew, on the other hand, is loving school.
Mom told him that she missed him and Andrew said, "I didn't miss you." Mom's feelings were hurt and Dad gave Andrew a talk about women and how easily their feelings get hurt.
Now, Andrew just tells Mom that he is glad he is home and that he had fun in school.
Andrew got his 6 week progress report today and he got everything satisfactory.
So,I think things are going well.

We Move One More Time

Yes, on July 28th, we all move to a new house. In June, my Dad and
Mom decided that they would by a house. After many long hours of
looking, we found a house that would fit us all. On July 26th, they closed
on the house. We were so thankful to God that it had all work out. Now,
we are living here and the whole house is painted. (My Dad is so glad the
painting is done for now) The house is new. It is a 3 bedroom and 2 1/2 bath.
You are probably wondering how we deal with just 3 bedrooms. Well,
right now, I am sharing a bedroom with my little sister, Hannah. But, by
the beginning of next year, I will most likely have a bedroom in our
basement. In the basement, there is going to be my room,
a guest room/playroom (so guest welcome) and a bath I am so
excited about having my own bathroom (no more sharing with little ones!!)
and my dad is going to build it all. We also have a really nice yard with a
field in the back. We also have a small creek in the back. On the other
side of the creek, we have seen 2 doe, 3 fawns and 2 juvenile deer.
My Dad said that there is probably a buck somewhere.
It would be so cool to see him.

I hope we do not move for a long time to come.

Breaking News about Hannah!!!!

On July 4th, Hannah took her first steps. She took 2 steps from our stool to our end table. When my Dad came home, he got her to walk even more. Now she is walking all over the place and getting into everything!! Mom hoped she would not walk until we found a house but, of course, Hannah never does what you want her to.
