This is the only way it would let me post :(

Here it is December, where has time gone. I just realized this a.m. I have not posted pics of our new home, where we moved to in May. I am really bad at blogging now :( Preston is doing great! He did have a cold, but other than that, he is doing well! We are so thankful for that.Missie loves Union Bible Academy. She has moved into the dorm so she won't have to drive 1 1/2 hrs/day and during winter it would have been hard. She loves living in dorm and having her friends there. She is in choir and absolutely loves that and travels when they travel. She is maintaining a B average, and that is great! It was a big switch to switch from ACE cirriculum to textbooks, but she has done very well. We love our home, and spending our first holidays in it! Will post some pics.

Update on Missie

Missie was able to sleep all night and was pain free this a.m. I praise the Lord! She took mega doses of antibiotics and people were praying for her. I wanted her to be able to stay and enjoy her week. Jared and Missie love playing jokes on each other, and he is like a normal big brother she never had. They are NOT in a relationship, just great friends. He calls her his little sis, and he is a protective, encouraging big brother to her. Missie is not one to talk to people about her feelings; but she is able to share with Jared and he is a big help to her.
Just to clarify that, because they get tired of answering the same question over and over again about their relationship. She is too young right now to have a steady boyfriend, anyhow. No way would her daddy let her date anyone right now! Missie is afraid he will never let her date for years and years, LOL. I appreciate his carefulness with our daughter. She is a precious girl and we want God's will for her life. It is too soon to know what that is yet. She has 3 more years of high school! She has to concentrate on that right now! So, the way it looks now, she will be able to stay at youth camp and have a great week. Continue to remember her in your prayers when you think about her. I am going to post a picture of her and Jared at another youth camp.

She is truly a precious girl. I don't believe any of us want our babies to grow up. I'm glad she has a daddy that cares too. To many times daddy's aren't involved enough.

Thanks Bobbie, we are very proud of her. She has a good head on her shoulders for her age. But she has had to grow up sooner because of our situation with Preston. And I am thankful for my husband and her daddy too! He is a wise person!!!
