Please pray for some friends of ours. First, the Klein’s, for they have lost their 14th child. The mother is doing well, physically, but the whole family has some healing to do.
Second, a family that is very close to us, have 2 of their children in Haiti right now. If you haven’t heard, Haiti had a massive earth quake this evening, centered in the capital city. Their whereabouts is not yet know. Their names are Jonathan and Amy. Adam and I view this family as our own. Please keep them in your prayers for their safety. As well as the other 3 million people who live in the capital of Haiti.
School is going okay. I’m trying not to be uptight when things don’t go as planned/scheduled. With homeschooling, you can be far more flexible (and forgiving) with time than with the main stream school. I need to keep reminding myself that it’s not the time frame that matters. It’s the learning and comprehension that is most important.
We were successful with our trip to Chicago last week. We bought a small walk-in-cooler, an 8 foot hood, an exhaust fan, and a make-up air fan (which is something needed to meet the code requirements) for $550 less than we were expecting to spend. Of course, we were planning to be home Thursday night (we left early Thursday morning), but we didn’t get home until Friday afternoon. A combo of bad weather, waiting for people, discussing details about the equipment, & all the others odds and ends, caused us to have to get a hotel room just north of the WI border. But we are home and getting things together for the next “stage”.
