Back to School

The routines of fall...with late summer weather..I'm enjoying good reports from Colby and Noah about the first days of second grade at Sully Christian and first grade at Pella Christian. I'm a little amazed as I sit in the rocking chair with Georgia that the school bus goes by on it's way back to school at 7:45! Somehow, now, that seems VERY early, how soon I have forgotten that my mornings used to begin at 4:30 AM!
Valerie will begin full time nurses training this week, with classes tomorrow at Indian Hills in Ottumwa. Her weekly routine will include clinicals at Knoxville Hospital on Monday's and Tuesdays, and classes inOttumwa on Wednesdays and Thursdays. Please pray for her to have the energy to handle this schedule! She is looking forward to getting back to the classroom, even though leaving Georgia at home with me is hard to do. She's growing so fast..rolling over, even though the end result of that procedure leaves her in great distress! Her nutritional requirements now include strained green beans, peas and butter nut squash (I should be on this diet....) and nothing seems to be outside her ever widening reach.
Just a quick note today, I'm expected at De Vries Cabinets today to help with a counter top installation. Soon i hope to post some pics of a new cabinet door we designed that is BEAUTIFUL if I must say so myself and a new option in counter tops, Formica that truly looks like marble! An affordable alternative that gives an elegant result! I think you'll love it!
