Tomorrow my step father is going to have brain surgery to remove a tumor resting on his major motor control panel. 9 years ago he began experiencing symptoms of loss of feeling in his leg. A back injury was his diagnosis 7 years ago and he had surgery to repair a disk. Thankfully his tumor is very slow growing, it has only effected his one leg and there is a very high chance it is not cancer.
Tomorrow morning he will have surgery . He has a wonderful surgeon, but he will have to endure surgery awake. The surgical team will stop the surgery if they begin to see any signs of loss of speech or gross motor function. As you can imagine, he is fighting off a lot of fear.
Thank you for your prayers!

The Bug
We have the stomach bug making the rounds in our house. As each 24 hours pass, someone else begins to get sick, but it is very predictable because it ALWAYS begins around 1AM and continues until about 4:30AM. Why?
Now to my agenda,
I have the "get organized" bug because soon we will have seven ! I want to clean out every closet, pull down all the Christmas decorations, finish all sewing projects. All today!
Instead I will hang out in the laundry room and serve gatorade and crackers. All kidding aside, I would not trade this job for all the jobs in the world. I love serving this precious group of children. I am so grateful for my generous husband who can survive on 2 hours of sleep.
Clorox is my best friend this week!

Happy Fall Y'all
We have really been enjoying the fall. It is beautiful here this time of year and the temperature is amazing. It is nice to spend more time outside and the colors of the leaves are spectacular.
These are some fun pictures from a festival we went to this past weekend. We joined some good friends for a day of fun and a night of roasting hot dogs and marsh mellows. All the fun of camping and no sleeping in a tent! (LOL) It doesn't get any better!
