Exciting News

This morning two of our favorite people stopped by to announce their engagement. They will be getting married in exactly one month. We are so happy for Matt and Jeanne. We haven't had too many opportunities to be around her, but what we know from our short encounters is that she is very spiritual and outgoing. Matt, too is very humble and spiritual, but not quite as outgoing. We think they are a wonderful combination. We wish them, "good courage."

There isn't too much new to talk about in our family. Logan's surgery went well. I need to take him in for a follow up to be sure his gums are healing well.

Joy was tested for the gifted program, but at this time doesn't not meet the minimum requirements for placement. Aurora will be tested soon. She is starting to recognize a lot more words and is reading more. We now fall within the guidelines for income for Head Start. Before we were over, but they raised the amount you can make and still participate. I plan on going to get his birth certificate next week so I can get him on the waiting list. It is a long list for this school year. It will probably be fall before he would go, but it would be exciting for him to have that opportunity. I know both Joy and Patience really benefited from it.

I guess that is about all. Bruce and Patience are out on their date. The other children are behaving well together.

Take care EVERYONE!

A Quick Update

Hello Everyone,

Just a little update.

Tomorrow is Logan's oral surgery. Please keep him in your prayers. Tomorrow, Patience has her "Quiz Bowl." It is an "are you smarter than a third grader" kind of game. I will be competing against her. It should be fun. Joy and Aurora have had colds and coughs, but haven't missed school over it.

Our friend Matt Towns stopped by for a brief visit today. It is always nice to see him and hear about the special things happening in his life.

We are planning a family trip to Eureka Springs over spring break. A two night stay. Logan is really looking forward to the scenic train ride we plan on going on.

I hope this finds everyone well and happy.
