We have been trying to conceive since Dec./Jan. time frame and we got our positive.  Our expected Due Date is Jan. 22, 2009 but since I typically deliver around 37weeks we are thinking around the 1st week or so of Jan or maybe even the last week in Dec.  We would love to have a boy but are just as happy with another girl.

John is moving home this summer and I will continue to home school Shelby and now also John.  He comes home June 17th we cant wait!!

Karis is officially 2!  I cant believe it has been so long.

The end of our school year is winding down with just a few more days of Ca history and Math left to work on we will be closing shop soon:)

"Death of a Child"

Sorry I didn't get to stay.
To laugh and run and play.
To be there by your side.
I'm sorry that I had to die.

God sent me down to be with you,
to make your loving heart anew.
To help you look up and see
Both God and little me.

Mommy, I wish I could stay.
Just like I heard you pray.
But, all the angels did cry
when they told little me goodbye.

God didn't take me cause He's mad.
He didn't send me to make you sad.
But to give us both a chance to be
a love so precious .. don't you see?

Up here no trouble do I see
and the pretty angels sing to me.
The streets of gold is where I play
you'll come here too, mommy, someday.

Until the day you join me here,
I'll love you mommy, dear.
Each breeze you feel and see,
brings love and a kiss from me.

I have mixed feelings about this.  Kevin says he is ready and doesnt mind me finishing my pack of pills i am on and then not taking anymore, or taking another month if i want to... that is just it i am not sure.  At first i was ready, but now I dont know if i want to wait till after the 1st week of Jan.  If i stop after this pack of pills i am on we will be over those pills next Sunday... Although it could take us a couple months (i have not had a cycle since conception of Karis in Sept. 05) or i could get pregnant right away so i have to know that i am ok becoming pregnant right away if it were to happen... I dont know i guess i will decide by the end of next week:)

So today although we shouldnt have skipped church we baked and it was wonderful!  I made home made Buiscuts for the very 1st time ever... and they were so worth all the time i put into them.  I had to let the Yeast sit, i had to mix all the stuff, knead the bread wait for it to rise, and still after all that my house smells so wonderful and the food was great!  While the bread was rising Shelby Baked Cookies with minimal help from me.  I was next to her in the kitchen the whole time and helped her get the ingredients and all but she did all the work and figured out which measuring cup/spoon she would need, she beat the ingredients together and put them on the pan to bake... She is as proud of her cookies as I am of my Buiscuts... i will post pics soon!
