Busy, Busy as a bee!

We have been so busy lately and I have been so negligent on my blog. I thought I would update you on the latest and greatest in our family. I will then follow-up with pictures. Some of our news is good, but some not so good.

• Majesty Mortgage continues to prosper (Thanks be to God!). Although Nick is busy with work, we are grateful for the business and money it has brought in.
• We will be putting on a roof after only 16 years (12 years for us). We thought we wouldn't have to think about that for awhile, but again God works his magic and brings a refi boom to our house.
• Will began seeing a new therapist. Not a warm fuzzy kinda guy, but practical and to the point. I have learned more about autism and helping Will in the few sessions we have had, then in the past two years. Nick and I are "required" to read a book on play. Will's diagnosis has changed slightly to simply PDD-NOS. What does that mean? Really nothing that we already didn't know.
• Reagan had two moves of the worm from the green apple to the yellow apple in two days! School is going to be different for him than Will. We are working on good behavior.
• After many tests and trips to the vet, Bailey has been diagnosed with Cushing's Disease. She has a tumor somewhere on her pituitary gland. Where we aren't sure. There is probably more to the issues we are having than that. We can suffice it to say that we have some tough decisions to make in the next few weeks about her health and her quality of life.
• Nick celebrated his birth week. Yes, you heard me ... birth week! Some great gifts were had, a few dinners and lots of great memories.
• We saw Kevin MacCudden play a senior football game. They lost - and for him and the team it was very devastating. He is great player ... and I was completely moved to see 99% of his team on the 50 yard line following the game praying. Keep in mind ... this is a public school. What a great kid he has become.
• The boys - along with Grandma Dobson rode a small train.
• We picked apples.
• I resigned from my PBO position (like PTO) this week - a very difficult decision for me, but I know it is best for my family right now.

I am sure there is more to tell, but our family has been busy - and most of it family events! It has been a great few weeks.

Enjoy the pictures!
