Yesterday, Jeff and I told the girls about the new baby. Maisen did not really get it. Layne, however, did not take the news well at all. She teared up and lost control. It was hard to watch her react in that manner, but I also understood that she is still dealing with the loss of Nicholas. During church, she leaned over and asked her dad "if when the new baby comes, will it have a heartbeat and live?". So, if you could pray for peace in Layne's heart and that we would have wisdom in addressing the questions that Layne raises.
In other news, Jeff worked a total of 57 hours this last week and add the 3 hour commute to and from work, he was gone a grand total of 71 hours. Pour guy, he is such a trooper and never complains one bit about it. I think he enjoys his car ride as he has downloaded Mack Driscoll sermons and get to listen to them everyday. It makes Seattle traffic bearable.
Count down is on at our house for school to start. Everyone is ready to get back to routine and day to day schedules. So we have many plans this week to enjoy our freedom to play when ever we want, cause starting next week that will not be the case... yeah!!!!
if you felt like my blog was missing something...Amy Grant had to go

Thank God for ditching Amy. I had to remember to turn the sound off every time I checked your blog. Haha! Poor Layne, it must be difficult to understand everything at her age. We will be praying for her (and your hubby's crazy schedule). Have a fun last week off. I need to plan something fun too as the girls and I haven't done anything all summer and Syd starts preschool next week.
Jess, Do you have a children's museum... that is our favorite thing to do. Totally kid friendly, we let the natives run wild!
If you don't maybe you should take a trip up north and come visit our with us sometime! I am always in the mood for fun!
