Can't Even Begin. . .
. . .to apologize for the length of time between posts. Too long, I know.
But, please consider this: Church Music Director meets Palm Sunday meets Easter Sunday planning.
To say nothing of the:
Special Needs Parent meets Kindergarten Screening meets somewhat uncooperative/shy prospective kindergarten student.
Then, of course, there's the:
Music Director meets Special Needs Parent meets Rising High School Freshman Football Player parent meets Buddy Walk Coordinator
Yeah. Insanely busy doesn't begin to describe it.
But things are good:
*Caroline did AWESOME on her kindergarten screening (named all 26 letters, counted to 15, identified all colors except gray, and knew body parts except for: ankle, waist, hips, jaw, and wrists). Who teaches their four year old about those parts? Whatever.
*Edison is surviving Standardized Testing this week and High School football practice. He leaves the house at 7:30 am, and returns at 6:30 pm. It's true. I saw him for five whole minutes today. (We talked on the phone for 20 tonight, as I drove home from a meeting)
*Church stuff is going well -- we're in the thick of Palm Sunday & Easter plans. This year, we have an all-time high number of Easter Lilies to decorate the worship center: SIXTY-FIVE. That's right, I'll be HIGH on benadryl on Easter Sunday.
*Buddy Walk meeting tonight -- loud restaurant, and the caesar salad was sucky. But, the meeting was good. I love the awesome women I get to work with on the Buddy Walk.
Really, life is good. It's just busy. And, God is working out things ahead of time that I never even knew about.
Wanna hear one? It's really cool.
Okay . . . you know how stressed I've been about Caroline's transition into Kindergarten / Primary School, right? It's true. I've been a basket case. Well. . . last night, I learned that the Vice Principal of her new school is a former special education teacher that I personally KNOW!! I *finally* feel like there's going to be someone "in my corner" even though they may not be able to "officially" act like it. And, she's a Christian to boot.
It really doesn't get much better.

Yeah on the vice principal. I'm so proud of Caroline, and her success on the kindergarten screening. I agree who teaches those body parts to a 4 year old...I guess we better start teaching Egan.
Hope things slow down after Easter for you.
How awesome is that Angie? You are one busy lady...I hope things start slowing down for you soon.
I'm glad you're back if only for a short time...I've missed you. I just don't seem to get on Facebook that much.
God puts special people in your life for a reason... enjoy that blessing!
all sounding very good! and enormously proud of the girl!
Congrats! And there's a Buddy Walk this year? Wasn't there just one last year??
