All the kids are back in school now and for two days a week for two hours i have to do whatever, and that list is forever long while trying to do things or better yet get caught up on things that need to be done. :) it's a never ending job. :)

We have been truly blessed this winter (nock on wood) the only thing we have had to deal with is colds, and i can handle that :) we have truly been blessed with health and strength getting through this winter. Monica is loving drivers Ed, CJ is doing great in school when he wants to :) Zach is having fun in 3rd grade, we truly have a fantastic teacher for him this yr! And Adam is well involved with preschool, we won't talk to his teacher i have no idea why? he gets involved and takes part in whatever they do and he will do what his teacher asks him to do, but he just won't talk to her? i keep hopeing that one day he will just surprise us all?

Things are going well for our family, just the usuall stuff. We had my Bro. move in with us last Aug. from Iowa, He returned from Iraq safe and sound, but he is really struggling with alot of stuff emotionally, and cant hold down a job as a result of it. Being over there just really messed him up. He can't live on his own right now, so until he can he is living here with us. Shane and I figured that since his fam. opened there house to our fam. for a month till we got our house, we needed to do the same for my Bro. so we did. it's not a big deal for us we are just doing something that needed to be done. He is fam. and we are just trying to help out fam.

Hopefully in the future he will be able to get his own place and a job that works for hm only cause that is what he want's so badly, he tells me every day how he feels like such a burden, and i tell him all the time that he isn't .

I hope you all have a wonderful and fun Valentines Day with your fam. or your specail someone :)

until later <3 U
