I am not what I want to be

 

 

 

 

I am not what I want to be.
I am not what I ought to be.
I am not what one day I will be,
But I am not what I was.
And by the grace of God I am what I am.

Life is Busy!

Whew!  Time flies when you are raising three kids, opening a new school, trying to survive owning your own construction company in this slow economy, hunting down eggs that stubborn chickens lay in obscure places like under tomatoe plants in the garden, all while continuing to do laundry, do laundry, do laundry. 

Here are my three kids spiffed up for their first day of school.  We have started a tradition of having them make their own posters that has the grade level they are starting.  Their enthusiasm over this request is diverse.  I'll let you guess who loves to do it the most and the least.  :)
