Hey y'all.
I am off for six or seven weeks, not sure how long exactly, but suffice it to say I'm trying to get stuff done here.
Tom has been subbing at the middle school for an intervention class. So pray for him. It's been difficult for him, but the paychecks will help us fund our trip this coming summer. More on that later.
We praise God that the new pastor for Tallmadge Alliance has been hired. He will begin formally in January. This is one of those woo-hoo moments!!!
Jenna has been coming up with the doozies lately. See our facebook page (Lisa Cross Vogt search) and you will get the goods on our 6 year old. She is a phenomenal reader.
Josh is wrestling - 5th grade - and learning how to lose gracefully. It's his MOTHER who is having a hard time with the whole thing. "Don't touch my kid!" type stuff. He is a polite, nice boy.
Debbie is an artist, a reader, an athlete, a friend, and a memorizer of verses and songs. She has essentially taught herself and her sister how to play the piano. I don't get it!! (oh yeah - I did that myself about 40 yrs ago).
Tom and I are struggling on many levels so give us a break and pray for us. The other day we decided we are "this close" to being admitted to a nursing home (pick or choose which one of us, it applies to both). Aches, pains, back pain, headaches, fatigue, hamstring pulls, lower back, upper back, whatever, you name it we've got it. Just a coupl'a cripples. Don't even think about taking away our Tylenol.
We get a lot of joy out of our kids and we both realize we would be lost without them. Last night Jenna reported, "I heard a rumor on the radio....that Santa isn't real." We quickly put the kabosh on that notion. Santa had better be real!! Right?
More later, love Tom and Lisa
