School days

Well, its about that time of the summer where the parents go crazy. Making sure that all the right forms and filled out and turned into the school office and all the doctor visits are all done and the registration fees are all paid up. Then we have to go out and get all the pens, pencils, notebooks and folders for the school year. Now I am not sure if I am ready for this year to even start. My sweet lil baby boy will be entering kindergarden this year. My baby?!?! I know its time and he is so ready for this chapter in his life to start but me on the other hand, I'm just not so sure.

Jim and I took the kids for a road trip. We went to Oklahoma City, Oklahoma to visit family on Jim's side that he never knew he had. I just wish that we had more time to maybe go a bit further south and visit some family in Texas, maybe next time. We enjoyed it so much that Jim wants to take us next to Branson Missouri. Sounds great. Well got to go and clean out and finish unpacking.

Mr. Scharbert

Hello my friends, this weekend will be very emotional and bittersweet. This past Tuesday morning I got an email stating that my High School Sunday School teacher, Warren Scharbert ended his long hard battle with cancer. He is painless and healthy in heaven with his Mommy. If I had to say one thing I would remember him for, I would have to say his salvation magic shows he would put on for the differant Awana programs through church. I also liked his laugh. It was one of those true laughs. Meaning that if he laughed he really thought that whatever it was, was really funny and not a laugh cause it was the polite thing to do. I know Jim is broken hearted too. He loved working along side with the differant duties that they had together on the church board for the past 3 years. They bonded so much in such a short amount of time. They swapped all sorts of stories and during his illness they told each other there colon stories.

Well, thats enough of that before I break down again. I will miss you Warren. And for those of you who read this that are related I will continue to pray for you and you move on here on earth. Love you all!!

Hello my friends, to day I write this with a heavy heart of sadness. I am learning that my Sunday School teacher for my high school days is getting closer to saying good by and hello to his maker. I am sad to learn that he is this far along but I know it is for the better. I will be saying lots and lots of prayer, more than before for this family. Watching someone battle cancer like this is a really really hard pill to swallow and I know the pains that come with it.

For those of you that read that this that are part of his circle of folks, know this that I love you and I am praying for you. I so deperatly wish there was/is more that I can do for you all. I know prayer is so very important but there are times, like this, that I wish I can do more.

Well, I got to go . . .

God bless you all!
