Greetings at the Beginning of a New Week!

Wow! It is so hard to believe that we only have 9 more school days. It is such a busy time of the year. My students are working so hard trying to finish up their work and practice a few songs for banquet. We have really shortened their awards banquet program this year since we changed curriculums. Hopefully next year we will be on schedule again for a regular program.



Zach is into everything lately. I am so ready for summer so that I can work with him on this digging thing. Sometimes I wonder if there is any hope.



My brother Karl had a heart attack last week. I was busy visiting with him and being with him in the hospital here. The doctor was really straight with him and warned him to change his lifestyle. He told him that his only answer was prayer.



Juniors is off to a great start. Last night we did an object lesson with bubbles. The kids had so much fun. Hopefully they will remember how our life is like a bubble.



Hope all is well with everyone out in blogging land.

Working Outside!!!





Zach and I have been working outside for the last few days. We finished up a little flowerbed I started last week. I posted a picture of it taken from inside my living room.
I tried to pose the working boy on one of rocking chairs on the back patio. However, he got off as quick as I put him on it. Later, he posed himself by the flowerbed. I thought it was a cute shot of a hard working little boy.
Well, I have plenty of errands to run. I also have a cranky little working boy to put to sleep. I'll post again later.

At the Doctor!

Yesterday found us at the DOCTOR! Yuck! Zach hadn't been feeling too well and had been running a fever. I took him to the doctor. He had another bad sore throat. The blood work showed that it was viral this time. So, basically there's not much we can do but wait it out.

Yesterday, while Zach was taking a nice long nap, I was able to work on a flower bed in my back yard. I had a little more to do when he awakened. He sat and watched me finish.

Well, I guess I should go. I have plenty that needs to be done. It would sure make it a little nicer if the sun would come out.

I hope you all have a great day.

Look at our school boy!



Wow! It's hard to believe Zach is already old enough to go to school.
Well, not really! But he is growing up. Aunt Robbie had to be a little late coming in to school on Friday. Zachy was such a big school boy. He sat and colored for a while.
He is constantly doing new things. One of his favorite things to say is "I don't mo."
Well, I hope all is going well for all of you. We are doing great. I'll post again soon.

It's time for Juniors.



We finally finished our juniors room. We began a new theme last Sunday night. It went really well. We had about 23 kids, and they responded positively.

Joel and Misty help me out with the puppets. They do a good job.

Please pray that God will help us to be a blessing to these children.

Another Exciting Evening!

Hello! Ohhhhh! (as Zach would say),

It sure is fun to eat corn. However, it is much more fun to see how I can make it disappear ---- even if it means sticking it up my nose. My Mom had to see it and retrieve my treasures---3 golden kernels.


Here are a few other pictures.

Here's a picture of Zach having fun at church pushing Samuel Durr around in his wheelchair.







Joel's MeMe is here for the week. We are sure glad she's here. She is a wonderful Christian grandmother.

Well, I guess I better go. I have plenty to do.
I hope all is well with you all.
