Summer is Here!

Maybe not officially but as far as Kings Forest Academy is concerned, we are in summer mode! Oh, the lazy days of summer - NOT! So far, I have got the children enrolled in five camps - a dance camp for Chelsea and four basketball camps for Gregory. Yes, I know that sounds like overkill for basketball for Gregory but that is really all he is interested in besides karate. And, I just haven't found the right karate program for him yet.

He will begin guitar lessons just as soon as I can get a return call from his music teacher and swimming will pick back up in July. As for Chelsea, she is going to do swimming in July and to a couple of vacation bible schools. Gregory will also go to vacation bible schools in July.

This amounts to a lot of driving for me but I think the exposure to some other kids and new situations will be beneficial to them.
My son needs to get a little more street savvy and get used to making good decisions concerning safety. He needs to improve his listening skills. Chelsea needs the same thing.

The funny thing about all of this is that things are getting busier right when my husband is starting a new high pressure sales job. So, there is plenty of opportunity for us to be tempted to have attitudes, accept stress, and other junk from the enemy. So, we have to be mindful and make the decision not to do so.

Today has not been a good day. I have been hurt by someone I love dearly but I can handle it. I know it is just the enemy and I know how to handle it. Now I just need the strength, faith and courage to do the right thing.

A good friend of mine has been hurt deeply as well and her family is severely damaged because of it. I am grieving for her and her children. The devil is a liar.
