Hey! Yes it's me : )

Hey guys! Sorry to be such a slacker. I love your posts! It's so neat to get to catch up on you two! Andie I totally understand how you feel about knowing I am soooo blessed and still finding myself whining about someone or something. But to be honest I never hear you complain about your work! However, between the three of us, when we talk shop, good or bad, we are NOT whining! We are simply processing the emotions and stressors and possible solutions...yeh that's what we are doing.

I don't know about you guys but I love my ride home at night now that it is still daylight. Seeing the different shades of green showing on the mountains and the fields as they come back to life, the beautiful flowering trees and bushes, the clear blue sky after the spring rains...is all so indescribably gorgeous! His creation truely speaks of His greatness.

My niece and nephew from Ghana will be coming home soon!! I am so happy for them and my sister. She and I have always wanted to adopt and I am glad she is getting the chance to live that dream. I am sure the fact that our Mom-mom and Grandpa were both orphans, and our Grandma lost her Daddy when she was very young has put the desire in our hearts to help children who have no family. I can't imagine my children being all alone in the world and it breaks my heart that so many children will never know the love of a Mama's hug. Hugs are so easy to give.

I've decided to take my old position in surgery back. I'll be managing the pre/post op and GI lab. Dr. Becky Lowery is now the Administrator over all surgical services and she asked me to come back. I have alot of respect for her and know she will support me in making some of the changes that are needed. I won't be in the GI-call rotation this time, though, and that should make the hours more tolerable.

Cody drove to Marietta by himself last week! Then Jonah drove down Friday and spent the night too. I can not believe they are old enough to travel on 75 by themselves! Lacie was sweet to invite them, they had a blast. Cody stayed up till 3-4 every morning. He is sure college is going to be wonderful : ) Keith and I think he may be at GHC for quite a while...

Brittany graduates on May 9th!!! Yay!!! Levi is still loving working with his Daddy : ) Our grand-puppies are getting so big!! Levi has started teaching Jake some commands like sit and shake. He can fetch too!

Well that about catches us up, except for the story about Keith dropping his cell phone in the bottom of the oil pan of his cutter, yeh, it didn't dry out too well with all that oil. So he takes it to Verizon to get another phone and asks if they can download his numbers from the old one. They said to take it home and let it dry out really well and MAYBE if it could power back on they could download them. So, as he is driving down the road he has the idea to hold it out the window to help it dry out...You guessed it, he dropped it on Riverside Parkway. Levi said, "You can't make fun of me anymore for breaking my phone(s)." But I'm sure we will : )

Love you both!
