Happy Heart

ImageSummer break has arrived! Friday was the last day for the kiddos – tomorrow is the last day for the teachers as long as I can get my room torn down.  We kicked off summer vacation with a rainy weekend – but between the rain showers we managed to visit the neighborhood block party and WeeMan squeezed in some corn hole.

The day was made even better when we were able to see friends from long ago and far away – they’ve been serving in South Africa as missionaries with Nieu Communities and are transitioning back to the states to do mission work in Boston.  Can’t believe how much their kids have grown.  Made my heart happy to catch up for a few minutes.

There was even a garage band

On a completely different note, I just read today that Xanga may be closing down.  That’s where I got my start blogging and that’s where some of my most heart wrenching and joyful blog entries are.  I was blogging there when we decided to pursue infertility treatments for our WeeMan.  Now I’m in the process of trying to figure out how to download and save my Xanga blog.  I can’t bear the thought of such an important piece of my life being lost forever.
