Jun. 17, 2008 - Biggun's Birthday, CubScout Camp, and Church
Last Tuesday was my son's 9th birthday. Happy Birthday Biggun!!! We made the whole week special for him in that he did not have school all week. (we school year round) He only had to go do his yearly testing on his birthday. I know mean mom ,right?
The tester/evaluator was wonderful as this was the first time Biggun had been tested. She told him he passed w/ flying colors. He was so proud of himself when we left. Now here is the truth. He did great w/ his math, as I expected. but we are not as far along in reading as I thought he would be. So we are bukling down. A dear friend of mine Ms. K. is a teacher and she is off for the summer, I asked her if she would tutor him in reading. As I don't have money to pay her it would be a favor. I could offer to feed her dinner here and there. Being such a good friend said no problem and started tutoring him on Monday. They will tutor 3x a week for 30 minutes. I will give an update on that in a few weeks.
Next week Biggun goes to Cub Scout Camp for a week. This is a prayerful thing for me. As I was a Den Leader the first year he went to camp and I know how HOT it gets in Florida weather. I know that the water at the camp does not taste good and if he does not have a good Leader then he could get dehidrated. I wish I could be a Leader again but of course w/ Baby Bear and the new little one on the way and all I can't. I know God will protect him.
At our church we have been w/o a paster for about 3 years. We have had a wonderful interem pastor but it is time to get a regular pastor so we can grow. This weekend the pastor search team is bringing a new man forward. On Thursday my hubby gets to meet him when all the Deacons meet him, then on Friday evening I get to meet him and again on Saturday and he will preach on Sunday. A plus with this pastor and family is they are homeschooling family, granted they are new to homeschooling but they are a homeschooling family. This is important to me as in the past we have had issues w/ a leader in our church telling my hubby and I that we need to put our son in school, private or public. That is a whole other post.
We will be taking a prayerful vote on Sunday after am service. Please pray w/ us that if this is the Man that God wants to lead our church family that we as humans do not stand in God's way.
Ok I have a Dr.'s apt this afternoon for a check up on this little life growing in me. I will give an update on that later and hopefully upload some really cute pictures of Baby Bear helping Daddy in the kitchen cook from Father's Day.
