*My friend Charessa is doing so well! :) She is a walking, talking miracle of God. Thank you all so much for your prayers and please continue to remember Charessa and her family because she still has a long road ahead of her.

Perri (12 yrs. old/8th grade) and Tucker (8 yrs. old/3rd grade)

Perri (12 yrs. old/8th grade) and Tucker (8 yrs. old/3rd grade)As you can tell, they have trouble posing for a serious shot. ;) But hey, I'd rather have happy-go-lucky kids than buttoned-down geeks like I was. ; )

A handmade potholder, several handwritten recipe cards, adorable bookmarks, and a sachet. Isn't that sweet? :)
*Fall sports season has begun, so I am once again running Mom's Taxi to and from practices. Tucker is playing fall baseball
and Perri decided to give volleyball a try.
After a week of tryouts, she found out on Friday that she had made the team. :) I can only hope I find it much more interesting than track. ;)

{ Just PLEASE don't make that face! You'll hurt my feelings. ;) }
No more staying away for so long. You can count on it...tomorrow,
I'LL BE BACK!
