There is not a whole lot to report right now. My brother Jacob is here visiting for the week. He's 17 now, which makes me feel REALLY old. David took him for a tour of GA Tech yesterday (he is going to go to school for engineering.) We took him to Medieval Times for his birthday on Sunday. It was actually pretty cool with all the jousting and sword fights and such. I even got into it and I'm usually pretty bored with that sort of thing. Anyway, the visit is going well. The kids are definitely enjoying his being here.
Emma is officially a blue belt in karate now for almost 2 weeks. She got to lead the 27 techniques at graduation, which she is always very happy to do. She is very intense and it makes everyone laugh to see this pretty little girl put on this mean face and loud voice. She gets a big kick out of the older kids saying "Yes ma'am" to her. She also came to the WalkAmerica kickoff and got to get up in front and hand out door prizes with two local radio personalities. She was pretty excited about that. They made a big deal out of how much she raised last year, which is something she is very proud of.
Sarah and Benjamin are fighting a nasty, asthma exacerbating cold right now. They are not feeling great, but that usually doesn't get them down too much. Some GREAT news on them... They are officially discharged from speech therapy!!! It was the last of the therapies for them so this is a big deal. It means that they are developmentally "normal" for their ages. Not even corrected, but actual ages. We thank God every day that they are with us, given the start they had, but we never could have imagined that they would have done so well.
Lastly, for those of you who pray... My cousin Nicholas went into the ER a week and a half ago for severe headaches to find out that he had a large tumor around his pituitary gland. Last week they removed it and the biopsy showed that it was benign. Please keep him in your prayers that they got it all and that it doesn't cause any future problems for him. He is only 28 years old and is a single father to a 2 year old and a 4 year old.
Oh yeah, one last thing... Happy 60th Birthday to my Dad, who is now officially OLD! It was last week, but it is a milestore birthday that I felt was worth mentioning!
Anyway, that's all for now.

I can't believe Uncle (twice removed) Wayne is 60!! That is sooooo old! Your kids are pretty darn cute. I'm commenting on your site so that you'll start commenting on mine. :)
Sneaky.
