Well, whew! Today .. this week .. has been a whirlwind. I am sure this post will be full of ... !!! and lol's, so be prepared :)! If you have read my last post you know about our Duke trip Monday and I will not get into all of that again. Today I took my hubby to get 2 wisdom teeth pulled. He is now in the living room, mouth packed with gauze ... yet he is STILL sitting in front of the computer, sheet music pulled up, guitar in hand, singing! Yup! SINGING!!! So imagine singing "I need a savior" through a mouth full of gauze or tea bags! lol! Good grief! i wish he would rest and chill out but he will not listen. I am supposed to be the stubborn one here, so what gives?? ;)
The kids are running around screaming, laughing and playing. I think that is one of the most amazing sounds ever. I love to see their eyes light up completely when they smile! God has blessed me so much and I am so thankful. His goodness and grace and love fill up each day in so many different ways, ways even I do not expect him to. I could never do enough to show him how much I love him.
Hannah's teacher called today. I am not sure if any of you know about online schools like Connections Academy or not, but that is what we are trying out this year. It really is the same thing as homeschooling .. just a little different :). Hannah will have a teacher that calls and checks in from time to time. Her school will be online where she will have live classes and a schedule. There are lots of things I will not get into, but we are both excited about it. Tommy Ray is interested in his books, so I think he will settle into the schedule fairly easy. I hope:). After speaking to Hannah's teacher I feel more comfortable about it all. The only thing I am unsure of is how to use the website; but know when I get into it and 'try' I will figure it out. Last year was so hard with Han being sick I think I have put it all off because I remember how our bad days were and was dreading the new school year. I know that this year will be different and better than last. 
Both kids now have their guitars, singing very loudly and fighting. I honestly have no idea what I have been typing! lol!!! Now my husband came in with sheet music to sing and play for me too:). I am off and hope to be back on this week with a card. If not, I will be back Saturday with my last Hanna Stamps project. I have made myself not look at challenges this week just because I know i have not had time :). So PLEASE don't tell me what i have been missing :o).I think I am going to set Hannah up her own blog for school and to showcase her art in the near future if you want to ckeck it out:)
Have a wonderful and blessed week. Love ya!
Awe, I love the picture you have painted for us of your family! Some of my fave moments are when Noah and Daddy get together with the guitar or the djembe. Noah LOVES it and you can see it in his eyes and the whole house is filled with this peace, even if its just for a few moments. Good for your DH for making the best of a painful situation??
