Long Over Due Update

Really over due update! Ok, so I have been really bad at this blog thing lately!!! So much has happened since my last post that I don't even know where to begin.

1. My mom went back into the hospital late November which resulted in a surgery to amputate her right leg after a long(year) battle to save it. She was in the hospital until January 14 working hard at getting strong so she would qualify for an artificial leg...which she may have by the end of the week!!!

2. Brittany's school found out on the Friday before Christmas break that the doors were being closed down. Needless to say our Christmas break was a little stressful trying to figure out a school option for her. Praise the Lord a family stepped up and decided to start a school up and they have diligently been working to keep things going and helping to navigate what we need to do to keep Brittany in her current school.

3. Brittany has had some difficult ups and downs with her health and behaviors due to medication and we are still working through those.

4. The boys are busy with school, church, friends, sports and being really good and trying to deal with all the life issues thrown at them this last year.

All in all, it has been a crazy few months. I will try my best to keep this blog going more frequently......yes I know you have heard it before; but a wise person told me that maybe blogging would be a good outlet for me. So we will see.
