Wow Time flies

March 23, 2012

Time has flown since last winter.  James has been home four months and doing pretty well.   He has dated some and found a job, as well as hoping to start school this fall.  He is a great kid and I can't express how nice it is to have all my kids on the same continent. And his spirit is strong and sense of humor WONDERFUL!!! Of course Dana enjoys having more testosterone in the home. :)

We met our daughter-in-law Amy at Thanksgiving.  She is  a doll and a great match for Matthew.  They just recently discovered they will be parents! Which make me a grandma!! I have no words....I just smile when I think of it.  We are thrilled.

The girls are well. Melissa had a boyfriend briefly, but broke it off as she stood her ground on a very touchy topic.  We are proud of that. 

Whitney has worked very hard this winter.  She did let one of her jobs go and hopes to take a few courses at USU in the fall.  She has learned much since graduating High School and is a very strong young woman.  We love her very much!

Dana is good agter his strokes.  His back is pretty good, but his neck is fused.  The Dr. wanted him to go to PT, but whoa is that expensive.  And I am doing ok.  Although my hip is acting up, the socket is lose and I may have to have surgery. yea... But amazing what the medical community has learned and what they can do.

I am still at the university and attending school. I will be done July of 2013.  so a little over a year now.  I am ready to be done. 

We are grateful for our family, friends, and especially our Heavenly Father who watches over us and continues to bless us even if we think we don't deserve it.
