Well this week was much less eventful than the last two weeks of our lives. My son is getting better. He has adjusted well to his new medication and can get around on his own for the most part. We are so thankful to all the prayers from so many of you.
We were able to get back into doing a few school things this week. We did two experiments for my daughters science which my son really enjoys doing with us too. We got back into reading lessons with my son and with a review for this week he is back up to where he was before he was in the hospital. For our fun this week we made some pickles out of the cucumbers for our garden. The recipes will be up later this month.
For my other goals I have gotten back into Bible study some but I need to improve with this. I have been praying for others as I do my regular household duties. I also have been drinking much more water this week.
I did get new posts written this week and I did start my writing for the cleaning series I am hoping to get going. The writing is on paper so I need to add it to the computer soon. I did not get to the Facebook graphic but all in all I think this week went pretty well.

Hi Shelly,
I’m so glad that your son is doing better and adjusting to his medication. That’s truly wonderful news.
It looks like you got a lot accomplished last week. I’m looking forward to your cleaning series! I want to get a tutorial posted on how to make graphics with free programs online, I just haven’t gotten around to it. I have some extra time this week, though, so maybe I can get it up by the end of the week. 🙂
We went to the doctor yesterday with my son and daughter. Most of his test came back normal but there is a few for mitochrondrial diseases which we have not received back yet. So we will be going again in 6 weeks to follow up.
I am starting to write the cleaning series to help get our house whipped into shape before fall school starts I am hoping to start posting it soon.
I’m so glad to hear that your son is doing so well! It must be a relief to have things get back to a more normal state 🙂
Looking forward to your cleaning series!
Erin, it is so nice to have things getting back to normal and we are so thankful they are getting back to normal for us.
