May

We finished the school year and survived it and all the kids got on the honor roll for that quarter.  I'm not too bad of a teacher if I do say so myself. 
Zerrick spent an evening with cousins who take pictures for his senior pictures.



We spent a Sunday at Plum Creek with Genes.

Church finally moved to outdoor car church.  Where in we sit in the car and look warily out to our neighboring cars and pretend we're scared everyone has covid.  I didn't like car church if  you wondered. 

Jeanie was sitting there: " waiting, waiting. till I'm a mom"



Sunday bike ride.


" Hey siri, tell me a joke." 

Zerrick gave me a graduation speech at the end of school as we didn't have an idea when graduation would take place.  

We bought this and have learned to like it but it's too small. 

The boys built a mountain biking trail of sorts on our six acres/  So far they're all still intact and no broken bones.

Chickens and kittens! 


I worked on mucking out this barn and making it into a workable nice place to have chickens and kittens.  
Dog whisperer is betraying the dog here.  



Fawn found on the Disc golfing trail at Plum Creek.  And I've actually read whole books this last several months.

Happy Birthday Keagan

Keagan turned three while we were in Idaho. So we made a cake and celebrated with the Skrivseth cousins this year. He was enthralled watching me make the cake.

Silly guy! I rather like my little three year.

Forgiveness

 Forgiveness  Forgiveness has bones It has a brain It uses logic  And common sense  Forgiveness goes about Finding a common ground. It shows up in common places. It happens unsuspected. Forgiveness allows one to Name the thing that happened. Forgiveness gives one a way To see it for what it was. Forgiveness provides for the  Empty spaces in conversation  And allows one to listen  And grieve outside of one’s own experience. Forgiveness walks into a situation  And remembers. But walks with peace And knows calmness. Forgiveness has an earpiece  On the heart  And a microphone  At his mouth Saying the words that Forgiveness has given him. Forgiveness doesn’t walk with fear. Forgiveness looks alone. But He’s always always  Hand in hand with gentleness and kindness. Forgiveness can stand alone though. It doesn’t melt away or dissipate  With time. Forgiveness is that little happy wren  On your shoulder  Forgiveness sings...

Let me tell you how God answers prayer

      Did I ever write on here that I am teaching school at our little church school?  I absolutely love it and find that it's been a neat way to feel useful and invest in our bubble.  But I am requiring my kids to tell stories and write them and read them.  And right now they are in a four week story writing assignment and I began to wonder what I thought I was doing requiring something of them that I am not really proficient at nor am I very knowledgable about.       So for my story to write  let me tell you a little bit about how God answers prayer.  Sometime I feel like I should write Jeanie's whole story.  But not this time.             Jeanie's been having focal seizures.  We don't know when they started.  All we know is that we were advised to go get her growing pain/ leg cramps looked into and it started the beginning of many tests of which we still aren't done with....
