.... and the girl:

who, by the way, is wearing what has to be her favorite shirt STILL - she is frequently showing her support for him.

We built a log cabin on Presidents Day (is that supposed to have an apostrophe or not?)

And because we are fresh out of Abraham Lincoln action figures, it has become a Lego prop .... hours have been spent in this log cabin people:

Bubby's Basketball season came to and end. We had a great time at the end of the season party where Bubby got to hang out with WHK.

And where he also got to meet these guys and get their autographs:

FYI: He was much more excited to meet them than these pictures suggest!

And last but not least, here is how Jenni spends her afternoons. Apparently she doesn't find reading as exciting as we do!

The Start of an Important Week

I am tired.

There has been much discussion, prayer and downright gnashing of teeth around here over the last few months. This is the week we have some appointments that hopefully will help us come to some conclusions about school for next year.

I am mourning and celebrating at the thought of possible changes.

Please pray.

I am comforted by this:

Have you not known? Have you not heard?
The LORD is the everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the earth.
He does not faint or grow weary; his understanding is unsearchable.
He gives power to the faint, and to him who has no might he increases strength.
Even youths shall faint and be weary,and young men shall fall exhausted;
but they who wait for the LORD shall renew their strength;
they shall mount up with wings like eagles;
they shall run and not be weary; they shall walk and not faint.
Isaiah 40:28-31
