stressed

I haven't posted in a while... and there is a reason.

My daughter, Alexis, is getting married tomorrow. All I can say is that I'm beginning to understand why certain cultures avoid having female children. I love her to death and I am incredibly proud of her but I really wouldn't want to do this again financially, emotionally, or any other way.

I have got soooo much new material to blog about and once things quiet down I'll try... except two weeks after the wedding we're scheduled to close on our condo and then move.

And Alexis and Christian are planning to move to Phoenix although neither has a job there yet.

On top of all that, we're doing a small construction project at the church that has had one interruption after another and it needs to be finished by August 25 so we can open our nursery school in the fall.

If we had tried to plan a summer with more stress than this one, I don't know what we could have changed short of a serious illness or a death in the family. Pray that neither of those happens for us and we will have made it through all of the craziness.
