It’s been a little while, so the title had to include a mix of what has happened over the last week. 🙂
We have had intercession break for 3 of the 4 kids, so they have been going to the BGC during the day, and overall, staying out of trouble. AMAZING!
Allie had her mandatory meeting last night, regarding her upcoming trip to Greece & Italy. It’s about a month away now.. I’m a nervous, but excited mom over here. There’s a few things to make sure we have in order, prior to her leaving, and once those are done, I think I’ll feel better. It’s not a large group going, and one of her chaperones, was her homeroom teacher in 6th grade. We’ve had 2 years to prep for this adventure, and it’s hard to believe we’re so close. This is a huge opportunity for her, as she transitions from middle school to high school. I’m thinking that she will grow a lot this summer, with all she has going on. She will see so many things, and I do expect her to take photos, and give me a detailed recap of her experience.. We’ll see.. 🙂
Autumn was a little unruly last week, so she served some “time” at Grandma Christy’s house, which turned out to be a good thing for her. She learned her lessons, and gained respect for adults and staff at BGC since.. She really can be a loving, sweet, kind, thoughtful, caring, empathetic individual. It’s deep in there.. We just need to get it out more often. I know she’s going through major emotional times, but we just need to focus on the positive, and expect good behavior, and it will come. All in love…
Austin & Adam had good days and I’m so thankful. It’s been quite challenging the last few weeks, with behavior issues. I welcome the break.
This last weekend, we all went to Silver Dollar City, and the weather was absolutely perfect, there were no lines for the roller coasters, and the kids were constantly wanting snacks, candy, and drinks… it’s what you do when you’re at an amusement park though, right?
We’ve had a great time together lately, and it’s really been refreshing.
I’ll take it!!!
All in a Day
