A Song for Saturday

I am not one that cries very easily. Some movies can make me cry. Quite a few songs can make me cry. Songs move me like nothing can. Songs about our salvation, God, and our Lord Jesus make me cry.

This is one of those Songs.

Lazy week

This week has been kind of lazy. Not much going on.

We were told that we had a earthquake this morning but I did not feel it myself. Or I slept through it. We had bikes knocked over and some of our wood fell off the pile but that was about it!

Monday night we had to go up to the middle school for Orientation to start getting Nik ready. I cannot believe my oldest is going into 6th grade. It just does not seem real to me.

He was not sure if he wanted to be in band or Choir but he has chosen choir. I would never tell him which way to go but he loves to sing so that is what he has chosen! I for one am very excited! He has such a great voice. I wish you could all hear him really sing. He does it more when he is a lone and his voice is just beautiful. I am praying this will give him more confidence.

Heather and Katie have two weeks of swimming lesson up at Hudsonville High school. They are loving it and having a blast. This is a part of their school day and totally free to us! Praise God for that. They will take it again when they are in 4th grade.

Caleb and Hannah are doing well. Caleb's reading is coming along nicely and he loves to spell out words every were he goes.
Hannah is doing pretty good in school. We are excited as she will have ESL (english as a second language) classes next year. That should help her a ton!

That is about all!!

What kind of dog are you?

Here is my answer!


You are a Golden Retriever!
Laid-back, sociable and well-groomed, you've got your own hip little pack of groupies who just love to be around you. You have a brain inside that adorable little head of yours, though you use it mostly to organize your hectic social calendar. You never poop out at parties, and since you're popular with ladies and men, as well as children and adults, you dish out your wit, charm and luck to whomever is close enough to bask in it. The top dog likes you and wants to be your best friend, despite the fact that he doesn't really know what the heck you do. No one does, in fact, but everyone loves you all the same. A true foodie, you’ve got your keen ears fine-tuned to make sure you don't miss out on the opening of a trendy new place to nosh. But your youthful days of being able to wolf down food 24-7 are wagging behind you, meaning you've got to watch what you eat so you don’t pull a Brando and outgrow your coats.
