Wow, life changes



Well first let me say I'm sooo proud of my baby boy. While he is now labeled with "LD" in school, it's such a great thing for him. He's improving and getting the extra attention he needs to get where he should be in school. That's what I want, him getting help. He's excited about it too. I tell him often it means he's extra special, so he needs extra special attention!

Also he's now riding a bike without training wheels.


Isnt' he doing great? Yes I know he's not wearing a helmet, it's because he was allowed that once. Now he can't until his helmet comes in. We ordered it from the Bike shop in Atlantic Beach, he got to pick the color and was thrilled with it.LOL


We also got us, me and DH new bikes. I never imagined paying that much for a bike. But I have to say I'm thrilled to own an Electra Townie, in red.




You can't see it well in this shot but she's pretty. I'll be getting a few accessories as money allows. DH got an Electra as well but his is different than mine.LOL Both however look retro to us. Mine puts me in mind of the 1950s style of bikes. We are looking forward to riding around Atlantic Beach and just enjoying time together and away at the same time. We plan to read at home as well and will be getting the kids bikes for the beach as well, so they can ride on the road where the beach house is.
We had a field trip on May 1st and we had a blast. Me and moma and Baby Girl went with baby boy. We went to the Sylvan Heights Waterfowl park in Scotland Neck. There are some great pictures I'll have to post at a later date. Life has been busy and full. I still wish my mom would move closer to us, but I can keep suggesting and sooner or later I'll get them closer.
Work is going great. DH is really doing outstanding. It's truly a blessing and joy. He likes what he does, I like the freedom owning our own business has given us. It's hard(er) work than working a 9-5 job or working for someone else but at the same time it's OUR business, so all the hard work we, meaning namely him, puts into it is for US. Not for someone else. All the profits are ours. Which is great. I certainly know I couldn't own my own business without him. He's the one who gets up and goes to work and I just happen to help when I can and how I can. I should do more and I plan to.
Life has been good. God has blessed us and for it we are thankful. We still haven't found a Church mostly because we don't believe there is one that would work for us and with us going to the beach about every weekend it's hard. I'm thinking of looking for one at the beach, actually. I would love to find a small town old fashioned church. So we'll see.
I hope life has been good for you all and that you will remember that every small step to God gets you just as close to him as each big leap of faith. Sometimes it's the small steps that have the lasting effects.
hugs to you all,
