A Day at the Park

We just enjoyed a visit with Tim's sister and her family. They are in transition from pastoring a ministry in one part of Wisconsin, and looking for another ministry. We went to a park here that has a carosel and duck pond, and it was great fun! Natalie was scared of the carosel, but she got over that when daddy took her on it! She was also very into walking, and did not want to be carried! She's getting quite good at walking!

Me and my cousin Danelle on the Merry-Go-Round! Walking with my grandpa! I want to go again!

Again, it was a huge blessing to have my family here to take care of Natalie. Then my dad came down with it, and finally today my hubby got it! But we are out of the woods, and I survived my daughter's first flu! School is crazy busy, but I am thankful that the kids are not nearly as squirly as they usually are this time of the year. I am facing the decision about whether or not I want to return next year. I make enough money writing that I don't have to, but I know I will miss teaching so much, so it is not an easy decision. So, for our biggest news - - Natalie took her first steps yesterday!!!! I was on the phone with a gal in our church who just had twins, and Natalie was holding onto
