Gloria gets to play T-ball

Since the triplets on the team and one other child were out for the game, coach asked if Gloria might want to play. After James reassuring her that he would be right there to help her, she agreed and she had a blast. It took a couple of time at bat for us to realize that she should be batting lefty, then she really did well.

(Sorry about the song playing. I couldn't figure out how to get if off.)

Crazy kid

So, today there's a foot of snow outside, but both of my kids are wearing shorts. Gloria doesn't pose for picture, so I had to surprise her. She is so funny.

He got a job!!!

Thank you for all your prayers and offers of help. James got a job and will start Monday. I haven't quite figured out all the details as he is driving back from Buffalo right now, but at least we will be back to work.

Prayers Please

Last week, James lost his job. It was quite a blow to us. But after reflecting on it, we realize that it may be a blessing in disguise. We have many options before us. We could stay in Rochester. We could move back to Ohio. We could move to Missouri. We could move to Boise. We could even move to Utah. We have had many family members offer their homes to us. We are very grateful for all the love and support we have been shown.

James did have an interview last week and also may have a lead to get back into the FAA. However, we don't have any family to keep us in Rochester. So without a job, we aren't sure we should stay.

Today, we are fasting and praying for guidance and direction. We want to do what the Lord wants us to do. His will is what is most important to us right now.

If you would like to add your prayers to ours, we would be entirely grateful.

Today I went to Pre-K to help. Gloria has been sick so she wasn't there. One little boy, Dylan, looked at me and said, "I know almost everything." I thought that was very cute.

Nothing to blog about

I know I haven't blogged lately, but quite frankly, I have had nothing to blog about. It is freezing so we have been hunkered down at home.

Oh yeah, one exciting thing has happened. I joined Facebook and have been reunited with 2 long lost friends from my youth. I have tried to find them before, but couldn't until now, so I am very happy to have them back in my life.

Marley and Me.....my real life.

Today I got paid for babysitting. I set the money on the counter. I got distracted doing something else. I hear, "Marci, Marley has money in his mouth." I run out to find a $50 bill in his mouth. Thankfully, it is wet, but not ripped. I proceed to go through the house picking up mangled money. The only fatality is a $5 dollar bill which is ripped in half. I taped it back together and hopefully the bank will exchange it for me. It could have been worse as she usually gives me all large bills.

It's Cold Here!!!

Addicted to snow

This kid is addicted to snow.




Gloria is too. While sledding yesterday, she kept licking her gloves.
