Now to update on the rest. The end of August brought a very emotional time for me...The "FIRST" day of school. The past two years weren't so bad but this year brought a new and exciting thing for Jeff and I...we sent out baby to school. Regan began Kindergarten...Can you believe it? She was so excited and ready to go with her new back pack! Hannah and Matthew were a bit nervous since they had to start yet again another new school. However they are doing GREAT! Hannah is struggling a little bit...her teacher is very strict and so that's new to her. Matthew's teacher is an amazing Christian man who isn't afraid to share his faith. Matthew was was baptised the end of August and his teacher came to the baptism which made Matthew feel very important and special.
September was busy for us...but we did just fine. In September our house finally closed and is no longer our burden. Thank you Lord! Also in September we found out that Madylyne has to have open heart surgery for a valve replacement and to get a new pace maker. So that was kind of stressful. She's doing well and really doesn't understand what's going on. Just that she needs another surgery.
October has been a blessing and I am so greatful for the Lord in our lives. We didn't have to make a mortgage payment this month since the house sold, so we were able to deal with some much needed bills. Plus that gave us the money we needed to travel back and forth between Lemoore and Stanford for Mady. Her surgery was originally scheduled for the 6th of October but will be happening hopefully and God willing on the 20th.
Matthew turns 7 on the 23rd...how depressing?! He's birthday party will be on the 18th so that we are sure to celebrate in case we aren't home from Stanford yet. Jeff and I celebrate 11 years of marriage on the 25 and have decided that spending time with our kids is more important than doing something alone so we are going to a birthday party for our friends son with our kids...and get this for those of you who know Jeff...he's even going to wear a Halloween costume for the party!
Well that's all for now. I will hopefully get better at this and post more in the following weeks with party pictures and all of that.
