Kids and Open House


Here are my babies...who are not babies anymore!!!!! I've heard parents say that in the past and I've heard my Mother say that about me but...I don't like that they are getting so big! Good thing is, they are like I was with Momma and Daddy...I LOVED to be loved on (and still do). I didn't care if Momma kissed and hugged me in front of my friends. Tim on the otherhand...Not So Much! He told Momma one time with his teeth clinched together, "I'm not a baby"! Me, nope, bring on the lovin'! I hugged everybody and still do. Our house is a huggin' place. Oh, back to the kids...all 4 of them are still huggin' and lovin'! Yes, even Sean! Of course when his sisters come at him, he is not crazy about that and tries to avoid it whenever possible!

Laura and Catherine are back from youth camp in Colorado. Laura was baptized and Catherine rededicated her life. It’s great to know with Catherine leaving for college in 18 days that she has recommitted her life to Christ. They had a great time and from what they have expressed, it was very eye opening.

Open House…Very disappointing! On Saturday, we had a lady stop by and she loved the house but I think it is not in her price range. That was it, 1 person. Sunday, nobody came. We were pretty bummed! We know that God will send the right family at the right time. However, God knows we are human and our human side wants it to happen in our right time. I’m just concerned that the percentage of people that might be looking in our price bracket is a low number of families. Actually, we’ve heard that several times already and we just put it up for sale 9 days ago. In many many ways, the sooner the better for us! There are a lot of things that I cannot begin to explain but getting the house sold will start the ball rolling on all the things we have to do to get from point A, to B to C…to Settled!

Another reason for the house to sell…We plan to take leave and visit GA and maybe Momma in FL before we settle back in KS. Maybe 10 days (14 if we can push it). That is IF the house sells in the right amount of time. So okay friends and family…that gives you more reason to pray for us! (That is if you want to see us. Otherwise, never mind! Haha!)

I guess this is one of my shorter blogs. Just updating this before I get in trouble!

Well we had a 2nd showing on Saturday... got all excited and thought FINALLY after FOUR MONTHS this is going to be it... nope, the couple did not even show up! No call from the realtor, nothing! No explanation!! No nothing!! Talk about a bummer. I feel your pain, believe me! We just have to hope & pray that everything will fall into place for both of us!!
