Breadstick
Cooper found this creepy crawly tiny little caterpillar and kept him for a day… he named him breadstick. 
cooper…oh how you are so fantastic
doesn’t his glowing yellow eyes make you think of the skunk scene in bambi? And this was a ginormous bumblebee that joined us! 
Our dog.
I feel like i am at a precipice in life in so many ways. I feel like God has his hands wrapped around my life now that i have fully surrendered to his will that i am watching, almost crying, at the things that he feels is best for me. I know that my weakness’ come from him to keep me near him and humble. I know that all the things that have happened in the last year have been to get me here. As eminem says in a song called i am not afraid: ”Ya its been a ride,i guess i had to go to that place to get to this one..” I feel like God has things all figured out for me, and all these things started happening when i said “Okay Lord, what would you have me do?” instead of, “Okay Lord, i need your help with this, and this and this…” And a lot of these things have really been downers ~ at first. A massive computer crash followed by total computer failure has landed me in a computer that has sped up my work load immensely. A fathers heart attack has brought a brother back to christ. Jon losing all that the military promised us has brought us to be able to put him through school ourselves. Some financial issues has brought us to be able to get out of debt and back on top as we are well on our way to being debt free. I cannot name them all.
But here we are at another issue that i feel Gods love surrounding me telling me that this is under control and all things in his will. Our dog is sick. BADLY> he has no blood platelets. (almost none) and has been on steroids. But they seem to be making him more ill. The doc has said that prognosis is not good in most cases such as this and to be prepared. we all feel that he is dying. We have stayed with him all weekend loving him as much as we can, and fitting in each minute left. If God wants him home we are ok with that…but if he lets him stay we will of course be undoubtably grateful and love him until god calls him home. We have another blood test coming tomorrow to see what has happened since meds but all things are unknown still at this point. all i feel is that God loves us, and if Hank is to go ~ it is for all our benefits…and of course i have no clue how from this perspective ~ but am ready and willing to let God be in control of my life as i have done all year. Nothing but the best has come from these drastic events…and i expect nothing but the best from this new position on life.
Thank you God for taking over for us.
Here is a few pics of cooper giving some EXTRA hank love out tonight.
coopers a genius
(and i am not bias) Here are a few homeschooling shots. He and i have been doing a letter a day for a month and he is so stinking smart! just has a ten minute letter attention span! lol, like his daddy. 
Nobody beats Cooper
My boy is soooo fantastic. to anyone who knows me he is my little twin, in everyway. He is defiant, strong willed and really sincere. He says it like it is but cares how people feel at the same time. He will fight you to the end if he feels your forcing him, but is gladly submissive if he feels you expect him to make the right choice and allow HIM to make that choice. HE it very physically talented…not clumsy…very much a humanitarian. He is so wonderful!
And he is like his daddy in so many ways! He is very mechanically minded as he is. He can learn how something works and then wants to take it apart and put it back together just to test it. He can blow his lid FAST. He makes everyone fall in love with him quickly. He loves to read. He loves to eat sugary things.
He is eager to serve a mission as both of us were. He loves to help out…loves to play! (that is from us “grwoed ups” raising him ~ lol. He really is an all around fantastic human! I am so glad that he is mine~
Little Aspen Glen
