V.I.P. Week

I think I already mentioned how PJ had his V.I.P. week at school last week–remember the tool cake?  There are two other big things that make V.I.P. week special. The first is the About Me poster.  During each student’s V.I.P. week, he gets to complete a poster about him to present to the class.  PJ […]

Cake Adventures

Last year we sort of started this tradition where the kids picked what kind of cake they wanted for their birthday and it would be our project to create it. Mom had gotten me a book about making kids birthday cakes that was pretty comprehensive and made me think I could delve into the world […]

Just Kidding

Apparently the letter was a mistake and we should have our approval by the end of the week. I’m trying not to get my hopes up. God’s timing is beautiful though. If our timing from here on out is anything like everyone else’s (hasn’t been so far, but here’s hoping), we could coincide our trip […]

Today we received a letter from CIS stating they needed more documentation from us.  We’re a little frustrated that it wasn’t sent/requested originally but excited that we are finally in communication with them and that they do, in fact, have our petition. I think we’re mostly frustrated that it’s a Saturday and we cannot do […]

Empathy

For everyone we’ve talked to about waiting who has been so outraged at the system, we thank you. Your support and empathy has meant a lot. However, I feel an incredible peace about our wait though. Not to say that I don’t emerging moments of anger, panic, and frustration. I just feel that God has […]
