Over the last week I have been getting everything ready to start homeschooling Eli. He starts co-op on September 9th, and although I'm excited about him making friends and learning new things, it has been hard for me to come to terms with the fact that he is growing up. It has also been hard to realize that I must find a time to do schooling with him at home in all the crazy of our lives. So lots of praying and asking God to help me with this transition has been going on and I'm just gonna take it one day at a time. I'm learning that all I can do is pray and trust God to work out all things. So I'm excited and scared all at the same time.
On another note, mom will have her knee replacement on the 5th of September. This is one thing I am definitely not excited about. I never realized how much I depend on my mother. She is always there for me, which has been such a blessing. Now I'm faced with knowing that she will depend on me in many ways, and I am totally ready to repay her and gratefully so...but as a woman I worry and I let my anxiety get the best of me. So if you read this, (I don't know how many actually do) please pray for me and my family.
On a happier note, we have had some wonderful time together as a family of 4! We went to downtown Greenville and walked around at Falls Park. We went to our family reunion on my dad's side of the family, and we took the boys to Otter Creek Waterpark. We also had Micah's one year old pictures made since he will be turning one September 18th! Man time sure does fly. I can't believe he is going to turn one soon, but I am excited about his party! I'm doing a little man mustache party, and he is gonna be to adorable for words! Well at least he will be to me but lets face it I'm biased:)
So here are some pics of all the fun we've been having I hope you enjoy them!
