Happy Birthday Seth!

Monday, November 9, Seth turned 9 years old. Doesn't even seem possible that my first born is now 9. When did that sweet baby grow up? Right in front of me, I'm afraid. He is such a precious gift from God. I am so thankful that I have the privilege of being his mother.  "Sons are a heritage from the Lord, children a reward from him." Psalm 127:3

After the Tiny Mite game on Saturday, we had cheeseburgers and brownies with ice cream to help celebrate his birthday. Aunt Carol, Uncle Craig, and Keely were going to come, but Luke's flu put a stop to that. So, it was a small family get together, which was fine. He opened his gifts from Nana and Papa and Grandma and Grandpa and was delighted in what they chose. He opened ours on Monday. We wanted to make sure he had something to open on his actual birthday.

It lights up and the ball glows in the dark. Cool!

Thank you for 9 years and I look forward to the next 9. I'm sure they will go by just as fast. By then Seth will be a senior in high school and we will be working on college applications instead of the Nintendo DS games. So I will enjoy this day today. And not worry about tomorrow.

Until next time!

Tiny Mites Take the Trophy!

Northern Champions!

Ringing the Victory Bell!

27-0 was the score as the Rabun County Tiny Mites came out on top of the Union County Panthers. It was a great game and fun to watch. Seth and his teammates have continued to be undefeated in their quest for another Super Bowl Trophy. They will represent the North division next Saturday at the Super Bowl in Blairesville. It was fun being able to win the North Championship at our home stadium. We had a good crowd and lots of enthusiasm as we cheered our Wildcats onto victory.

The Tiny Mites are Unstoppable!

Praying for a safe game with the opposing team. Steve has become our team chaplain!

Northern Division Tiny Mite Champs

Undefeated!

Until next time, Go Wildcats!

Little Luke has the flu

Poor Luke has the flu. When he came home from pre-school Wednesday afternoon, he wanted to rest. Well, that's unusual for Luke. He rarely wants to rest. As I was getting ready for church, I noticed he looked flush while "resting" on the couch. Brought out the thermometer and he had a low grade fever. So, he stayed home and took Motrin and Tylenol. Well, it just got worse from there. He was up in the middle of the night vomiting and needing more medicine for the fever. By Thursday morning, a call was placed to the pediatrician who said that it was the flu and there was nothing to do except treat the symptoms. So, that's what we've been doing. Lots of people have been praying for him to feel better and this morning, he felt so much better. Thank you Lord! The fever may come back (and probably will), but today he has been better. He is still taking Motrin and Tylenol every 3 hours per doctor's orders, but he acts like himself. Praying that he will continue to improve and that the fever will not return. (And that no one else in the house will get it.)

Until next time!
