Changes

Well, a lot has happened in recent weeks. Ray's mother and aunt are now at a nursing facility in Jasper, Georgia. They are almost 30 minutes from our house. We had plans to move them here and had both of them on waiting lists. However, nothing was coming open. We finally decided to go ahead and choose a nursing facility in Woodstock, which is about 10 minutes from our house. It wasn't the perfect choice, just the best we could do on short notice. As usual, God provides. The day we were supposed to move her, we got a phone call from one of the facilities where both Ray's mother and aunt were on the waiting list. They had one opening. We took it. The day Ray's mother arrived, they came to us and told us they had an opening for his aunt. It all worked out perfectly. Now, we are working feverishly to get the basement done. We have everything out and have a man coming to move some walls, then we'll call in the electrician and heating and air men. If all goes well, my wonderfully talented brother will come and finish the basement! Ray's daddy will move in with us shortly. He's going back and forth right now.

WoW, sounds like you guys are heavy into the phase of your life of 'caretaker'.. I can identify, only the younger end of that spectrum! We will keep you all in our prayers, as that has to be a lot to shoulder, with teaching all day, three teenagers and family! If anyone can do, I'm sure you can.

Christian comes home day after day and raves about school, so you must be doing something VERY right! :)Thanks for loving my son so much, you have no idea the peace it gives me to know that he is in able hands!
