UPDATES COMING......

I CANNOT GET MY PICTURES TO UPLOAD HERE AT THE LAKE AND I HAVE A LOT TO CATCH UP ON.

WE HAVE BEEN BUSY GETTING READY FOR OPERATION CHRISTMAS CHILD. THE BOYS HAVE ALL BEEN HELPING ME ORGANIZE EVERYTHING SO THEY CAN START PACKING BOXES TOMORROW AT CHURCH. JAX EVEN GOT IN ON THE FUN THIS YEAR AND HELPED ME PUT THE SOAP AND WASH CLOTHS IN BAGGIES.

WE HAD MUFFINS WITH MOM DAY AT SCHOOL LAST WEEK AND THE BOYS GOT TO SHOW ME SOME OF THEIR JOBS AND I WAS SO PROUD OF THEM BOTH. AUSTIN SURPRISED ME WHEN I SAT DOWN WITH HIM TO DO ONE OF HIS JOBS. HE HAD TO GO GET HIS MATH BOOK AND THEN HE STARTED DOING ALL THESE ADDING PROBLEMS AND MS. SHELLIE CAME UP TO ME AND SAID IT WAS LIKE A LIGHT BULB WENT OFF ON HIM LAST WEEK AND HE JUST STARTED DOING MATH AND HIS LANGUAGE JOBS LIKE A BIG BOY! I THOUGHT ABOUT IT LATER THAT DAY AND IT DAWNED ON ME THAT I HAD A HEART TO HEART WITH HIM ONE DAY ABOUT GETTING READY FOR KINDERGARDEN AND HE GOT SO EXCITED ABOUT LEARNING:)! LITTLE TERD, HE IS SMART WHEN HE WANTS TO BE!

AIDEN DID SOME OF HIS MATH JOBS FOR ME TOO AND HE IS IN HIS EARLY STAGES OF LEARNING TO READ. HE HAS ALWAYS LOVED TO LEARN BUT MRS. MARCIA DID TELL ME HE WAS IN TO SOCIALIZING MORE THIS YEAR:)! HE HAS THREE GIRLFRIENDS AND TOLD ME HE WAS GOING TO MARRY LAUREN THE OTHER DAY. I TOLD HIM HE BETTER NOT BE KISSING ALL THOSE GIRLS:)!

JAX IS DOING GREAT A GETTING TO BE A BIG BOY HIMSELF. THE BOYS ARE ALREADY EXCITED ABOUT CHIRSTMAS THIS YEAR AND EVERYTIME THEY SEE SOMETHING THEY WANT THE TELL ME. WELL, JAX HAS CAUGHT ON. THE OTHER DAY A COMMERCIAL CAME ON WITH THIS TOY AND HE SAYS, "I WANT THAT." I ABOUT DIED. HE NOW TELLS ME HAS TO PEE PEE AND SOMETIMES HE WILL GO IN THE POTTY AND OTHERS HE WILL JUST PLAY, SO I THINK HE WILL BE READY SOON. HE LIKES TODO WHATEVER THEY DO, SO MAYBE THAT WILL HELP!

WE HAVE HAD A RELAXING DAY AT THE LAKE AND WILL BE BUSY TOMORROW WITH CHURCH AND FEEDING THE HOMELESS,BUT I HOPE TO BE CAUGHT BACK UP SOON!!
