Happy moments.

Happy moments. 

Let me not allow another day to go by without saying some happy things...

Jeremiah is now married to the most beautiful soul who just had a baby. He is in the process of adopting this precious little boy.

Her name is Helen. She is adorable beyond adorable. Hannah and I FaceTimed her yesterday. We fell more in love with her than we already were. 

This baby will melt your heart! I am now a mimi.







His name is Uziel. (Oosiel)
We are so happy for them! They are not together yet. Lots of rigamarole. But soon. Soon. And now this little guy has a dad. Jer is becoming an amazing man.

Matt sat in on a computer class at our library today. Uhhmmm. He was the smartest one there; not to brag. And he may have just earned himself a scholarship to UTD based upon his intelligence. Yay him!!!

Hannah is about to start classes again at Richland community college. She earned her way to honors classes. What? Making a name for herself when she transfers to TWU. Her feet are dug in and she is determined to continue on in nursing. We could not be more proud. 

Jono...that little sugar dumpling, has been making dinner time a lovely event. I kid you not, he teaches ME; especially in kitchen safety. And he just has a way to impart correction without correcting. I am smarter because of him.

Did I not mention how amazing Jeremiah is besides swooping up a girl he loves and becoming an instant stepdad? He, also, has continued taking college courses online and maintaining a 4.0 in the midst of his responsibilities and taking on an instant family. 

Ummmm Matt has aced the SAT and his highest practice score is 1330. 

Honestly, I have only pushed them to love to learn. They are all beyond me and my only credit is instilling in them a love to learn.

I am still acknowledging beautiful positives. Things are going forward. Most things. Despite our situation, our children go forward. 

What more can I hope for? I can think of a lot, but I will most certainly embrace a thankful heart for the good that is here in spite of the hardships that try to bring us down.
