Praying Expectantly!

I can't believe how long it's been since I last posted! We have had such a busy summer, between trips to Bham & then an impromptu trip to FL last week, this last 6 weeks have flown by! Now I am getting things ready for Sam to start 2nd grade next week & then the following week Drew will start preschool 3 mornings a week. I have to say I am so excited to have both of them starting school & having a slight break 3 mornings a week! But on the other hand, this means my baby boy is starting school! How is this possible? I swear I just brought him home from the hospital yesterday! And don't even get me started on Sam starting 2nd grade! I can't even begin to believe it. They are both so excited to be starting back to school though & I know they will do great getting back into a structure & routine! Most of my summer has consisted of breaking up fights like the one I overheard this morning...

Drew to Sam: "You want a piece of me? Bring it on baby!"
Sam to Drew: "Oh yeah bring it on!"
About 2 minutes later I heard from Sam "Ouch Mommy tell Drew to get off me!"
Drew to Sam: "Oh yeah baby I got you now!"
After walking into the living room I found Sam pinned underneath Drew, little brother beating up big brother! I think I have many interesting years ahead of me to say the least!

On a much sadder note we heard today that Beverly's health is steadily declining. For those who read my blog regularly I wrote about her here & here. She is a sweet lady from our previous church who has had a reoccurance of breast cancer that has spread throughout her entire body. While none of us are God & we all know that God could put his hand on her & miraculously heal her body we also know that may not be God's plan. And after multiple 2nd, 3rd & even 4th opinions there is nothing else doctors can do. Beverly has been encouraging everyone to pray expectantly for her healing. Now in her darkest hours when it seems like her ultimate healing is soon, I would ask for all of us to pray expectantly. My heart is broken for this sweet family & for the 8 children who are having to carry this weight.
