Quick Update

Bad, bad blogger, I know.

Our house is a bit crazy right now. Here are a few things going on around here:
-We have our first Lo family broken bone(s)! Sam broke his hand on Sunday and a visit to the hand surgeon is happening today. (We are blessed that one of our neighbors is a hand surgeon and hooked us up!) I wish it were a great story, but, alas, it is not and I will let Sam tell in his own words.

-Today is my birthday! Guess how I get to celebrate? Why, by taking Sam to the hand surgeon, of course!

-I got a new tattoo to commemorate being halfway to 70. I'll share a pic and the story later. (I'm sorry, Teri. I had some time and just decided to get er done.)

-For the first time since we lived in Canada and our kids attended the best schools ever, I feel very at peace with the schools and teachers our kids are going to/ getting. Thank you, Lord!

-We have the best kids ever. I can not express enough how proud of them I am, in spite of how much we screw up as parents!

-I have the best husband ever. Seriously,I do.

-I am now a college student. Since all of the kids will now be in school full days for the first time in 11 years, I made the decision to finish school. Hopefully, in a few years I will be Erin, BSN, RN. We'll see how it goes.

-Our dear friend, Curtis, from Calgary, came to see us this past weekend. It was a blessed time. How we love that man and his wife, Bernice, who we missed dearly.

-We are coming up on our five year 'Gotcha Day' with Selah. Really?!?!? Has it been that long? Has it been that short?!?!? That girl is so much a part of our lives we can not imagine/ remember life before her.


There is much more that I know I am forgetting, but I mostly wanted you to know we are alive and well, in spite of a few broken bones.
