Oct 1st - 20th

Life is very busy. Jennifer and Sara are playing a lot of volleyball and some basketball. Alan & Timothy have basketball and Heather has horses & Gymnastics.

This month we found out that David has received a raise. The money will be nice, but I was more happy that he was being rewarded for his hard work. Work has been very demanding lately and has been a strain on him and the family. He is worried about how it is all going to turn out and there is a lot of fear in the future on how the economy is going. We both don't have a lot of control, but are trying to save as much as we can for the future.

Jennifer has had a rough month in volleyball. She is playing well, but would like to be playing better and wishing they could win more. She is solid as a rock and playing very consistent. The team is playing well, but have some areas they need to improve in. They also need to be a little more mentally tough. Which isn't easy and they are doing a lot better. They are still learning how to win. Playing through hard time and coming out on top. Have the talent to be a top 25 team, but a lot of work to actually be there.

This week has been hard. All the medical surgeries coming up and trying to find a balance between sports and being a good parent. It has been hard to be at all the athletic events and also keep a home in order. We already lost Heather this week and made me wonder how i can be two places at once. We are not perfect, but are trying to help all our children with all there needs.
