Today Katie turns 14! It is so hard for me to grasp. I look back at her baby pictures and it just seems like yesterday. She is growing into quite a young lady. I am going to try and work on uploading some pictures to add to this post. I just never seem to have enough time to sit here at the computer and work on this. Katie has really started taking over some duties of the house. Mostly the cooking. She really enjoys cooking. Maybe she is the next Rachel Ray. You never know. She is also starting to be interested in boys. I know it is all a part of growing up....but I am trying to teach her that God has someone all planned for her. It is up to her to follow his direction and the path will lead to him. I just worry that she will go the wrong path like I did. I know I have to leave it up to God.
For each of the children's birthdays we let them pick out the supper. Katie has chosen to go to Applebees for supper. Thank goodness my parents are going and will be helping us with the cost. Fourteen year olds do not understand for the most part that money is very tight. Especially with gas prices approaching $4.00 a gallon. Unbelieveable! Boy someone is making a lot of profits. My husband and I talked about buying a horse and buggy....it would be cheaper to keep a horse than a car now a days. May 8 we will have another birthday to celebrate our other daughter will be 11. The end of April and May we have a lot of birthdays. Lets see.....we have 3 birthdays in 10 days, it will soon be 4. My sister in law is due any day now with the 4th birthday. It is a busy time of the year. Saturday is the combined birthday party for Katie and Hannah. We also, on Friday, have our homeschool co op informational meeting. We have 6 who are interested in joining our group. We are excited about our group. Now we are just waiting on God to provide a building for us to use. |
