Okay! I am back. It has been so busy lately! The first week of June I was able to audit a J-Term (5 days of lectures for a full class, Monday-Friday 9-5). Introduction to Biblical Counseling with Dr Stuart Scott. It was a dream!! I tried to hold my plans of attending with an open hand because my schedule is governed by 7 other people. If one of the kids got sick or broke a bone or Robert needed me (he was taking a separate J-term the same week) then I would've had to pull out. BUT God was so gracious and everything fell into place. I took The Boy and Wild Man to two different women from church each day on the way to class and picked them afterwards, one woman on Monday and Tuesday and the other Wednesday through Friday. They were so kind to take care of them for me. And Tender held down the fort, just her, Hurricane, and the two toddlers full time for a whole week! I won't go into how much planning and energy this took to be gone full time for just a week with six children. It was worth it! I am hoping to audit another biblical counseling class in the fall but Robert will be free during the class so that will be easy. Eventually the long term goal is certification as an ACBC counselor. Then the last two weeks Tender has been back in her Star-talk Chinese program, five days a week from 9-2. It's almost an hour round trip so that cut almost two hours out of our schedule of just driving Tender to and home from Chinese. Again, worth it! But exhausting and left very little time for doing just the basics. We also threw in a garage sale in there! This coming week is VBS at our church and we are taking a neighbor boy with us. Tender is serving and the three middle kids are attending and the two toddlers are still to young to go. July should slow down a bit, hopefully. We are having a family over for dinner tonight so I gotta keep this short! Love and miss you all! I read your comments, even if I don't respond! I promise.
