Post Scripts.

Andrew

I got to spend last night and today with this little guy and I'm so excited!!!! He gets to go home with me tonight and stay over until tomorrow:-D. We're having a big family picnic tomorrow after church for my brother and sister-in-law before they head out to Indiana, so my sister and brother-in-law will pick up Andrew before they head out on vacation in northern PA. So it's gonna be a fun evening tonight!

The doctors called my sister to let her know the problem with Andrew is he has a digestive problem and major acid reflex. He eats his food so fast that it just sits in his stomach and he doesn't get any of the nutrients to the rest of his body. So it's back to the hospital on Thursday to find out what they can do to try to solve the problem.

Stupid Things, Part 2

After I wrote the last post, I went out to my sister-in-law's house to help her pack and watch my nephew (who gets into everything!!!) As I carried my nephew up the basement stairs, I forgot about the pots and pans she has hanging on the walls so clunk! My head hit a pot and it dropped right on my head. Oww!!!

Bible Institute

I am officially taking my last two courses!!!! This is a very exciting week for me as I attempt to finish the 33 remaining lectures. My goal is to finish them before the end of August, and then finish my *senior project* by the end of September. It is so exciting to see this chapter in my life close. I have learned so much about the Bible, history, and personal application through these last five years. Most people usually ask me what I'm going to *get* at the end of Bible Institute... I choose to think I *got* one of the best educations around: being taught in my local church by teachers who love the Lord and know so much about the Bible. These past five years have been long, and at times challenging, but it's been so rewarding.

Moving Forward

I'm not quite sure what's "around the bend", but I do have some goals for this fall: teaching at my church's Christian school, coaching volleyball, learning how to sew (I gave my sewing machine to my sister-in-law to use four years ago - I just got it back:D), scrapbooking my siblings' weddings and my nephews births, and being available for whatever and whoever needs me! But until then, I'm going to enjoy these fading summer nights and look forward to the crunch, crunch, crunch of the fall leaves.... Happy Saturday to y'all!:-)
