Happy Birthday
















What a wonderful birthday! The guys treated me like a queen. David took his first hour/ only planning period and took me Chick-Fil-A for some yummy little chicken thingys (I can't remember what they are called). Then I got to choose Outback for dinner. I really do like Outback but, I'll admit some of my choosing had alot to do with two little voices saying, "Mommy, choose Outback pleeease!"

I saved the gifts I received in the mail until after dinner so we could all enjoy them together. David's parents sent me the Taste of Home 2007 annual edition. I am so excited to use it. My mom sent a big box of several things that I will enjoy using in my kitchen. There was also some boxes of gummies in there that were eaten quickly (and not by me). The boys got me some Bath and Body products and David wrote me the most beautiful poem. I think I'll share it in another post.

I am incredibly blessed to have a family who loves me!

Hi Amy, looks like you had the perfect birthday except for the getting older part. Although, from the pictures, it seems you've figured out a way stop that process. You look good for 75, girl!

Your blog is filled with the Spirit and love of Christ. I enjoyed my visit and will definitely be back. (If you'll let me after that bad joke up there.)

Homeschooling Curriculum Help?

Shannon is hosting a backwards edition of what-works-for-me Wednesday , where you can ask for advice/ or suggestions instead of giving them. Yeah! I need some advice. David and I are really praying and considering homeschooling our boys, K4 and grades 2 and 6 —beginning this fall. Can anybody recommend a curriculum, either as a whole or as a subject, that you are crazy about that doesn’t make you crazy? Secondly, if you could give one tip for “survival” what would that be?

February 27 Update

I just called to see if Amy wanted to blog anything today, but at the moment she is talking on the phone to her wonderful friend, Deb Rose. Deb and her husband, Brian, used to live in Louisville several years ago. They were our very best friends. If I were talking to the Roses this evening, I would tell them that Amy is desperately scared. The docs have given her a very stiff dose of antibiotics, but as of this moment, her body temp is climbing once again. Her primary doctor told her he fears that this infection may be fungal in nature. I don’t completely understand all of the implications, except that we are shooting at this infection with our biggest guns, but it just keeps on coming. In her introspective manner, she shared with me today that if she had known she would lose her sight, she would have invested it more wisely in the things she read and watched: “What if I go completely blind and can’t read the Bible? I have to get more serious about memorizing.” This morning a do

Amy does not feel well enough to blog today, so the sub is blogging on her behalf. Yesterday Amy thought she saw some new spots in her left eye and felt that she was experiencing some of the same sensations that she had during her stroke, so she went to the doctor. He said that he sees no new lesions, but that doesn’t mean that she couldn’t have another stroke. He recommended that she begin steroids to reduce any retinal inflammation. Amy continues to need your prayers. Blessings, David
