HI all,
I’m back from camping and I have a new computer charger. Camping was a blast. The kids had so much fun. I didn’t have to cook or clean, could read, visit with people, and play games, as well as lay in the sun and swim. It was very relaxing. Upon returning however I had to unload, unpack, do laundry, have a birthday party at our house (Belle turned 11) and then clean up for an open house on Sunday. Phew. I’m pooped again, enough to have fallen asleep yesterday evening. I know I am tired when I fall asleep during the day because I never nap.
My almost 7 year old finally learned to ride a bike without training wheels at camp. The funny thing is that she was in shorts, no helmet, and barefoot. (she was riding on dead grass and I was with her, so I wasn’t too worried about the no helmet–but we do take that safety precaution). Her sisters when they learned were in jeans, helmet, socks, tennis shoes, long sleeves and probably knee pads.
The speaker at camp was David Eckman, an author of several books and involved in the ministry called What God Intended. I will talk more about him later as I think his teaching is great.
August is a busy month, and we have no date yet to move, nor have we sold our home yet. I have no idea what life is going to look like the next couple of months and what that means for school for us. I will plan as usual and make the best of it, but it would be nice to be settled in the new house. I am trying to take it one day at a time and trust in God for the outcome.
Well, just wanted to say I’m back with a fully charged computer and a new charger. Thanks hubby!
