I love it here

Victoria and Jake were at the doctor today.  Jake had a follow up from the rash.  He is still having problems that I will not discuss on here and I am hoping that what the doctor suggested will help. Victoria had her well child check.  She is of average weight but way taller then average.  Our doctor asked if she was going to play basketball and she said she is going to be a ballerina.  He told her that would be good too. 
Mine in-laws were in town.  It is always nice to have them drop by on the way home from their adventures.  Maybe one of these days they will allow us to tag along. 
More and more I am so grateful for my friends.  Those amazing people who have been around since forever and some a little later in life then that. 
Lee feels better about things since yesterday.  He told me we were going to be just fine. Not sure what that means but I am trusting in my husband's insight and faith.  Several rejection letters/emails today. We are now extending our job search outside of the wonderful Northwest.  I was asked today if I really loved where we lived.  The answer was Yes.  I don't want to leave here but I will if I have to.  I love where we live.  I love being close to family, camping,hiking,boating and boarding.  I love being so close to Target and Win-Co.  I love knowing the good mechanics in town.  I love the four seasons.  I love having an airport near by. I love that I am established in my job and I work well with my co-workers. 
The other thing I love is having a doctor that knows us.

 I would not have done well crossing the plains. Pretty sure I would have had a hard time not knowing the plan.  I am sure I would have kept asking,"Okay what after we get to the SL Valley? Then what are we going to do?" I would have tried to plan the future the whole way there and would have failed horribly.

Here is what we have been up to for the past couple of weekends,  Jake had his first soccer game.  Shawn came to visit.  Lee got a new RC truck that he loves and so do the kids.  They spend the weekend chasing the truck which totally wore them out.  We did some gardening.  Victoria and I went to Weiser to a baptism of one of my previous foster kids.  It was so great to see the family again.  I really miss seeing them on a monthly basis.  We played newspaper tag with Shawn and Demitri. Grandma Gina and Grandpa Don stopped by for a little while on their way home.  Oh yea and the primary had a bug day where the kids dressed up like bugs.  Victoria was a butterfly and Jake was a bee.  I  have four more days left of the semester.  Lee is in Kamiah this week to spend some time with Shawn before basic as well as some other things. 

Time to dust this off

L:ong story short I came across something that made we want to add back to this. Not sure why but hwere we go. Life is constantly chaning and I feel so mnuch surround bu death lately. Not diredctly although I fee like that is coming but more just heartbreak for so many around me. Yesterday Victoria quailfied for state. It was an answer to a prayer. I prayed she would qualify and felt strongly she would. As we left her away at the meet she was certain as were we that she hadn't qualified and then the clouds parted and she will be able to run. She told me she prayed that she would have a good last high school race. and her last race was not grea. There were tears. And rears when she called me to tell me she qualified. So rad trip to ther side of teh state next weekend Wednesday Jake is going through the temple. So many mixed feelings for so many reasons. I shouldn't expect people to show up but sometimes it is just so hard when my mom is the only "church...
When you know somebody is having a hard time in their marriage.  Pull them closer.  Ask to take the kids for a weekend.  Bring them dinner.  Reach out to them.  Ask them how they are doing.   Don't insist on visiting or having them visit you.  Know that their world feels like it is falling apart and it is taking every bit of energy to put on a good face for the kids and to work and run a household.  And it is has to be done while they continue to reside with somebody who they are struggling to have the most basic of conversation with.
