Maggie finished her 4th grade year on such a great note. She medaled in the science fair and won the mathematician, scientist, art, and manners awards for her class. She was so excited, especially for being voted  Miss Manners by her fellow classmates. I am thankful I was there to see her precious smile. 
   
 

She is excited about VBS, Sibling Week with Samuel at his therapy facility, and her birthday weekend coming up. I am happy to have her home with me during the summer while Sam has to stay in therapy all year. 

Samuel has been busy growing and learning more and more. He can say “uh oh!” And he learned this week how to climb onto the couch. He is behind, but he is becoming more mobile daily. His gross motor skills have improved immensely. He is still pretty much non-verbal, but he knows how to hum “Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star.” It is so sweet. I am still praying for the day that “Mama” escapes his little mouth. Here is a video, in our disaster of a living room, of him climbing for the very 1st time. Glad I caught it!

Scott’s company put in a bid to a Denver company wanting them to build another project. If Scott’s bid is approved, we will be moving to Denver for a couple of years. We should know something in the coming days. I am determined not to think about all the things that will need to come together for this move to happen, until we know for sure. 

I have not blogged in a while. It almost feels foreign to me. This past month has been pretty rough for us as a family, but I will touch on that later, when the words come together in my head.  For now, I am grateful to be here and to see my husband and children every day. Thankful for my life.
