September brings ???

As September begins I find myself missing New England. I will not get to enjoy the beauty of the leaves changing, apple picking with my family, holiday meals with my friends, or even shoveling snow...oh wait I didn't shovel snow when I was there. But even though these things leave an emptiness in my heart I believe I am where God wants me and that He has plans to bless and prosper me and my family. So I will accept where I am, what ever He calls me to do, and continue to make the most of what is in front of me.
With that said, I will give you the latest updates.
David had his second surgery on August 27th. It went very well. As soon as he woke up they let us bring him home. He was back to his rowdy little self by the next day.
Jeremy started his new job on Tuesday. He doesn't hate it. LOL
We are saving to get our own place. We should be able to move out the first week, or so, of October. I am eternally grateful to my mom & dad for letting us stay with them while we get on our feet. I am also grateful to my sister Tracy for letting my sister Anna move in with her so there would be room for us at my mom's. While everyone is trying their best to make this as comfortable as possible for everyone involved, it is definitely starting to wear on us all. We would all like our lives to return to normal (well as normal as anything ever is with family...lol) Hang in there family we're in the home stretch. :-)
We are church shopping again. The church we have been attending is not fitting our needs and we do not feel the Lord telling us that it is our home church. So we will continue looking. Being in the right place is so important. I was so involved at Mt. Hope and I am really missing those connections.
Austin is homeschooling again right now. When we looked into registering him here there were several obstacles. First, we were very careless when the movers packed our stuff and we let them pack all of our records. Our birth certificates, our medical records, Austin's home school records, etc. Second, we were not crazy about the things we were hearing about the middle school's reputation with gangs, bullying, etc. And last, but not least, we didn't like the idea of Austin starting school at one campus and then having to switch schools again in a month. Not to mention this campus required uniforms and the ones in the areas we are looking to move to do not. So for now we are homeschooling and we will leave it up to Austin whether or not he will go to public school after we move or if he will finish 8th grade at home.
I will post again as things start happening for us.
All our love and best wishes...until next time.
