We began school this week....in 5 more years I won't be able to say that anymore! But for now, I've been trying to be diligent and have plunged into yet another year with relative discipline and enthusiasm. The girls have great attitudes, so that is making it easy. Heidie is taking 2 classes at the public high school, which I think is pretty amazing considering she's never been to school before. She's taking Advanced Theatre and Accelerated Biology, both of which meet every day. That certainly gives us a new schedule this year. Jenny decided to forgo the middle school experience, and instead signed up for Drama and Theatre Dance at a local performing arts center. Her classes won't start for another 2 weeks. We're still eagerly waiting to see what's going to happen with our house. Right now it's scheduled to foreclose in 6 days. We're hoping for a last minute save. It'll either be that or a crazy scramble over the next month. I guess we're doing well with it,
just waiting and hoping. Oh, and praying. But, we aren't fretting too badly."Let us not live uncertain of what we are, and of where we are going."
~ The Valley of VisionWell, we know Whose we are...."I know perceive, have knowledge of, and am acquainted with Him Whom I have believed, adhered to and trusted in and relied on, and I am positively persuaded that He is able to guard and keep that which has been entrusted to me and which I have committed to Him until that day." 2 Tim 1:12And we know where we are going, generally-speaking...."He brought me forth also into a broad place; He rescued me, because He delighted in me." Ps 18:19We don't know the specifics, or how God is going to provide, but He will, for we are His.
And, it'll be good, no matter what.****************Here's a bit of Day 3 of our Western Trek. We departed from Council Bluffs, IA,
rolled through Nebraska, and landed in Greeley, CO: 504 miles, 9 & 1/2 hours.An early morning start, looking half asleep, I'd say: 
A little ol' church in Nebraska: 
I got this info from a friend back in PA: " This was a church building that was moved onto this site by the family who owned that corner of the exit.
No one ever met there."
Interesting!Windmills + cattle = Nebraska. 
They really know how to bale hay there: 
A small portion of a quaint ranch: 
And, the ever-present need for H2O: 
I am so grateful for all the country we were able to see on this trip.
More to follow!Promise!

Sounds like the girls will have a great year! I really lean on that scripture in 2 Tim 1:12. It is great from the Amplified, yeah? I am waiting and praying along with you to see what God will do about the house situation. He is working all things together for your good. Sometimes it is a stretch to believe that, but it is the word!
We live in a beautiful country! Love the old country church. I think I'd like to go in and just sit and think for awhile.
God bless and keep you through another school year!
Your children are in the art thing, Trish . They hold drom you both . They are kind and sensitive .
I hope the house affair ends well for you all .
