This is a picture of my boys and Tucker last Christmas.
OK..I've not blogged in awhile. There have been several reasons. I have been very busy... I know, everyone has. This past week, though, I've had sick kids (one with a sinus infection; one with a sinus and double ear infections and double and walking pneumonia; the other generally OK but with a slight cough and attitude problems -- and last I checked, there is no medication for that!), a student recital for 11 of my piano/voice/flute students, a school Christmas program for which I was the drama director, Christmas shopping and tyring to get some meaningful academics in the heads of my 6th graders before they break for the holidays.
The other main reason is because I've been very up and down emotionally. Understandable. I suppose the blogging would be theraputic when I feel that way, but I just haven't been up to it. I miss Caleb terribly. I so have not been in the mood for the holidays this year. We don't even have our tree up yet, but Josh is going to put it up today. Micah and Jacob are looking forward to that. There have been some other highly stressful things as well that I will leave unmentioned
I am so thankful in the midst of everything for all of the friends and family that we have lifting us up in prayer. I know it makes such a huge difference. Even with all of the teachers I work with -- I've known all of them (except Jess) less than a year and they've all been so sweet.
We're headed to Ohio Christmas day. I am looking forward to hangin' with my homies.
Have a merry Christmas all...
