New School Year
Where has this summer gone? We had a roller coaster of a ride with ups and downs.
We did manage to accomplish some of the things on the “list” though so that was a nice reward.
This summer we:
Lost our sweet bocker puppy
Finally got all of the baby and small-clothes out of the basement
Went to the zoo as a family
Had a garage sale
Welcomed a new puppy; a morkie to the family
Got out of the city and camped for a week
Made some serious decisions about our financial state
Got closer to having the Baby Monkey fully potty trained
Almost made it a full summer with getting along with The Ex
Ran our first 5k as a FAMILY
Got the Youngest Monkey and Baby Monkey to eat better food
Working through a Bible Study with friends; and it is life changing!
Only missed church two times
Watched the Oldest Monkey move to another state
Found out our niece is expecting
Did some reveal photographs for my niece and her fiance
Let our flower gardens (three) turn into weed gardens
Made a homemade carrot cake (it was so moist and yummy)
Learned more about Young Living Oils and how they can help our family
Discovered a new coffee flavor (that I love)
Went on walks together
Played soccer together
Accepted that I am a sinner, I will never be perfect and God loves me anyway
Figured out what my tattoo is going to be (have had an idea for 3 years but never firm on words)
Never took pain meds or allergy meds (thank you Young Living Oils)
Got amazing deals at Goodwill for school clothing (Thank you Lord)
Made some decisions about our health
We had a really busy summer and that list is only part of what we did. We have been blessed this year. Well the truth is we are always blessed because we believe in the Trinity, it is just that sometimes we forget and don’t always see it.
We have had a busy summer. Jack in the Box had been working at the same place for a year now (even though it began it was through a temp service).
We are starting the school year and we have:
Baby Monkey who is going two half days a week for speech
Youngest Monkey who is going into first grade
Middle Monkey who is going to be a sophomore
Oldest Monkey who is working in another state
I can’t believe that all my Monkey’s are growing up and in school or working. Where has time gone? Cherish your moments and times because they fly by faster than you could ever imagine (I remember when I was a child time took forever to pass by and now I can’t get it to go slow enough).
