Life As We Know It

Things here have been busy! The three older kids have been starting back to school: Ben is in 2nd! Rebekah is in 1st and Josh is in MWF preschool.
Our house is still under construction! The cement for our new garage was poured this week! How do we live in the snow belt of the snow belt and NOT have a garage?!?! I am just not sure that it will be ready before the now flies here, which, by the way it looks outside now, could be any day! (Our weather, literally, went from 90 degrees to 50 degrees overnight!)
And little Miss Rachel: she is recovering so well from her surgery. It's been about a week and a half since Rach got her "NEW FEET"!!! She came out of sedation very well and was able to go home the following day. I tell everyone that Rachel is SUCH a trooper! She is the EASIEST baby I have had...so far! I do think that once her feet heal and she gets some stability under her, she is going to give me a run for my money! Which is great with me! I want that kid to be on the move! She tells me that she is going to "Walk, walk, walk! March, march, march! and Dance, dance, dance!" (By the way, John has always prayed over each kid: Ben- a kind heart. Rebekah - to have joy. Josh- to have courage. and Rachel - that she would dance before the Lord in worship...and her day is coming!!!)

So, everyone here is doing well! Thanks for checking in! (By the way, I am still having trouble uploading pictures, thus no current ones!)
