I think you broke my nose...

It was back to school for the kids after a really wonderful and relaxing holiday. I still have a few days (kinda) to myself before I officially hit the books again.
My daughter seems to have made a tentative peace with her hair. We've been using some Gro-Treatment on it so help encourage the really short areas to catch up with the rest of her hair. I hope I can make an appointment for her to have it professionally wrapped and then we can maintain it...I'm just not a hairstylist even though I do know some things and can follow directions really good.

My son has be a bit concerned...not in too serious a way but still I am on high alert. This week I was putting him to bed and when I do storytime I like to give each character a different voice. Seems he didn't care for it and head butted me in the nose. He didn't (thank God) break my nose but there was some cartilage movement. My nose has been sore and I'm getting minor scabs (oh joy). Anyway I know his hanging around with older boys is what is influencing his more aggressive behavior and since he doesn't realize his strength he is hurting us who aren't ready for him. My headaches are better but I'm watching if I have to do a lot of swallowing and if I taste any blood. I gave him a stern talking to and I hope this is the last of any injuries for any of us for a long, long while.

Happy New Year! Mission 2012

My daughter survived her first Lock-In and boy is she feeling it now! Did very well, got involved and played a few games. We see so much "wrong" with our young people, it was refreshing to see a host of teenagers having a good time and loving Jesus while they did it.

My son is still a little under the weather. Praying he feels better soon before going back to school. I hate it when my Lego (name any video game here) partner is down.

Here's to the next chapter in parenting!
