9 Days Until Ruthie's Surgery

It is Sunday morning and Ruthie and I are hanging out while Skip is at church with Quinn, Amelia and Grant. Ruthie and I stayed home to avoid any germs. She is has struggled with ear infections since she came home in February and she has to be infection free on the 10th for surgery. The lazy days of summer have arrived !!!! We are down to only four children and tomorrow we will only have three. Olivia is in Colorado, Annabel and Grace are in Tenessee and Amelia will be headed to Granddaddy and Grandmama's tomorrow. I really miss my girls and will have a hardtime saying goodbye to sweet Amelia. (STOP READING MY SWEET GIRLS) We are planning on spoiling these boys! Their love tanks will be full by the time they reunite with their sisters. I am working on my packing lists for the hospital stay Decided to start training for the Soilder 1/2 Marathon on November 10th. Working on Beth Moore's The Partariachs (perfect for this season) Continuing to read Give Them Grace and journal real live parenting examples of success And "need grace and much improvement" examples.
