And time goes by...

so fast!!  I can't believe it's been 4 months since I have typed what's going on here in Pattywak Land!  The kids are healthy right now!  Bekah will be four on Sunday.  I still can't believe it.  She starts real Pre-K in the fall.  At this time, I don't think I am going to handle it very well!  Levi had a few bumps in the road with school but seems to be back on track.  If yall remember their sister Brittany (now Ciara) she turned 16 last week.  Isn't that crazy!!  We haven't seen her since November but she is super tall  (5'9") and still as pretty as can be.  She seems to be doing well.  Calls every now and then.

The bow business is doing well!  We are actually getting more business than expected.  Some days I miss not having to do a thing, other than home stuff!  We are getting ready for the next Sacred Selections Fundraiser.  It's scheduled for October with a pancake breakfast squeezed in there somewhere.  We are hoping to have our own Sacred Selections baby one day soon!  We are in the running for a baby in Arizona who will be born this week, or by c-section next week.  He could possibly be a fetal alcohol baby, so we are just waiting to hear what's going on before we make a decision.

It would be great if you could remember the less fortunate mothers out there in your prayers.  As Darleen said, "they can only dream of our worst days".   I really believe that's true.  Whatever we are going through in our lives is nothing compared to having to deal with an addiction, being homeless, being abused, and not being loved.  I'm sure there's even more than that!  I'm so thankful for my parents.  Although I have tortured them through the years, I so appreciate them.  I'm glad they were strict and were always there for me.  I hope you all were so lucky!
