This week....

On the day Andrew was born my parents found out my dad had cancer.  A fact they hid for a few days.  The cancer has spread through his whole body although the doctors think the can get in remission in the next 3-6 months. Treatment started yesterday so we are keep our fingers crossed and lots of prayers that he will kick cancer's butt.  If not then we will deal with that then. 

This last week has been crazy.  Tuesday my phone was lost/stolen and Lee has been so patient about it.  I think we are going to have to get a new one. Speaking of Lee he started working.  Good and bad.  Good because he really likes working bad because I am home everyday with Andrew.  There are days that Andrew just wants to eat and be held.  Then there are days where he sleeps all day. Overall he is a good baby and we are so blessed to have him in our lives. 

The blessing is still up in the air.  Everybody seems to want to know when it is.  I have no idea.  Further more it probably won't be at church and will be at our home. I know that some people have issues with that but since it is my child then we get to make the decision that will work best for our family.

We spend the long weekend in Kamiah.  The kids had a good time playing in forts and riding four wheelers.  We even went down to the river.  Ana was sad to see us go and I hope that we can make it back up before I go back to work but I am not sure that will happen.

LOCK DOWN

The governor came out on Wednesday and ordered a lock down.  It seems like a good idea and will not changed our lives all that much.  We did decided that we would only go to the grocery store once a week we went last Friday.  We will go tomorrow which means it will be nine days.  Kids haven't been in a store in weeks.  Lots of time in the garden and working on yard projects.  It has been good and bad.  More family time and less running around.  But lack of structure over the past two weeks has been tough.  Tomorrow would be the day the kids start back to school.  It is likely they won't be going back at all this year.  Victoria will be the most effected.  No eighth grade graduation likely   The school could decide to bring back just eighth and 12th graders.  Either way they are all out until 4/20.  "distance learning" will start for the kids on 4/13.  Which is another reason I think they will end the schoo...
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.

Feeling all the Feels

Right now I am feeling all the feels. We had such a great week with my nephew and Jake. The house is louder and has more enegy when all four kids are home. And our nephew is seriously one of favoriate people. He lets the boys hand on him and they just look up to him so muchd. So I am writting because I am not sure what else to do at this pount. I have been applying for a job(s) that I have been inspired to do for a long time. I have been really trying to to step upside of my comfort zone and apply for things that I know I can do although I have never done them before. I have been considering doing some writing and writing a book. I have no desire to be published I just want to be able to start being more creative . I have so many fears about so many things. Missy Kay turned 19 today and Andrew had his first tennis meet of the seaon. I am thankful for my people who show up to support and love us. There was this moment at the meet where one of the parents gave me haug aft...
