So, I figured this was another easy way to keep in touch with everyone and keep everyone up to date on my family. Jason had surgery on August 28th. He is doing wonderfully. I have bee hired at Wal-Mart as a midnight stocker. I will start on the 11th. Trying to get prepared for that. Colton is doing exceptionally well in school this year. He is growing up so fast. He is at the stage that he is trying to figure out who he is and what to wear to be cool. It is no longer cool for him to give mom goodbye kisses everyday that I drop him off at school, but he still does it to please me. He also can't get away without opening the back door of the van and giving bubba kisses and hugs too. He has the typical attitude that I have learned that every boy his age gets. (I just thought it was mine) He misses his family more than I ever realized. Nanny and Papa and Aunt B and Kenneth and Jovi are so much a part of who he is. (It amazes me) He is wanting to be a good faithfull Christian, but is figuring out that in our world it is kinda hard to do. He wear his faith bracelet he got this summer at church camp with Aunt B faithfully. He said when he has a bad day, he will look at it and hope that it gives him the answers he needs. He wants so bad to have something to hold onto. I am more proud of him everyday. One day he will hopefully realize I am not a horrble person set out to make his life hard. Just a mom who loves him more than life itself and that I want him to be a better person than I could of ever been. Jayden is so much a mixture of Jason and I. The good and the bad. He is a challenge everyday. He thinks his sole purpose is to get up everyday to play video games. So, we are trying to fix that problem which just turns into him throwing fits. I told him the other day no more playstaion. He had to go to his room and play. I walk in later and he had grabbed his game boy and was playing it. He looked up when he heard me and he sai, " Mom, you said no playstaion, not no game boy". So, he is way to smart for his own age. LOL!!! I am doing good. Just missing my family terribly. Hate change and learnign it is inevitable. Go figure. I will attempt to write a little something everyday. Please keep us in your prayers and hope that one day we find the faith to keep us strong. Love to all.

Thanks, Dawna. You made me cry all the way through it. I miss you guys so much. We need to figure out video conferencing or webcam or something...you know me and my computer intelligence, I probably said that all wrong. I hate not being able to see the boys...AND YOU! I enjoyed so much this summer and the time we got together. I also greatly enjoyed Colton being at Youth Camp with me and Jovi. God WILL carry him through the hard times; he will do the same for YOU. Hang in there sister, I love you!
