Life has been so very interesting the past 3 months. My David came home from college.. and he seems so grown up, and he has been working so very hard on his weight and health. He looks AMAZING. I am so proud of him. :-)
He had his 23rd birthday in July, and Jacob had his 31st. Wow. My girls are getting so big, they are communicating more and are just wonderful and my joy.
My health is still going downhill, and we still don't know what's wrong. My annoyingly fragile back continues to plague me, and it prevents me from doing so much. Steve has said he doesn't want me to go to Echo Ranch this year. This upsets me so very much. I have been going ever since we moved here. At this point we're praying about it.
My David moved to Seattle last Thursday; this hurt me far more than I expected. I kept putting it out of my mind all through the summer, then the night before he left I just cried and cried. I thought I had it all together and would not fall apart at the airport. Wrong. When he hugged me good bye, I broke. Speaking was so difficult and I spent the entire day crying off and on. I know he's going to be happy, and that he is doing what The Lord wants him to do. But boy.. I miss him. Even when I didn't spend much time with him, it's just the knowing that he was here, and I could see and talk to him anytime I wanted. David, you had better call and text me often!
Summer has been wet. Very wet. Record breaking wet. :-) We've had a few sunny days, and I'm hopeful that fall won't be horrible. Wishful thinking?
I've been knitting off and on, my yarn stash is entirely too big. Steve is going to build me a wall of diagonal shelves in David's room.. we're going to paint it turquoise and it's going to be awesome.
Now if we could get Tim and Katie to move here.. that would be fabulous. Then Pop and Shelly and John, and Bill and Donna.. I could go on and on.

Even if you only post once every three months, I still love to see it. AND it's still a good journal. AND, I'm praying you get to go to fam camp also. It wouldn't be the same without you.
