Off To School!?!


Our life has been one, big whirlwind...especially these last few days. It is unofficial, but since our fan base consists of 2 readers and hopefully those who read, will pray...I felt as though the need for prayer, far out weights our need for secrecy!!! I will wait to share the details, until everything has been finalized, but Gideon starts Kindergarten TOMORROW!!! There are so many questions that still need to be answered and details to be worked out, but this morning we enrolled Gideon in our neighborhood, public school, we went on a tour this afternoon and meet his new teacher, Miss Cook, and went shopping for school supplies...and he start tomorrow. We do fill as though the Lord has opened doors, provided wisdom and encouragement and given us an amazing sense of peace. I am sure that if I would have had even a few moments to evaluate the school, time to investigate other options or even a second to think about our situation...I would burst into tears! I guess it is a blessing that things are going at such a fast pace...there is no time for a pity party!!!

Sooo, tomorrow Gideon will become a Ridgeview Ram!!! Please pray for him!!! Of course school has already been in session 4 weeks, so Gideon is behind. Please pray that he will adjust quickly, make lots of friends and love learning, going to school and his teacher. Please also pray for our family as we go through a major transition, with lots of questions to be answered and decisions to be made...pray for clear guidance from the Lord.

We love you and appreciate your prayers!!!

I also keep your family in my prayers. Good luck to Gideon as he starts school, I'm sure he will have fun.

Does this mean you won't be returning to Europe?
