This year I am still staying at home, keeping plenty busy during the day with all the "busy work" of running a home while my family is out of the house. Once 3:00 comes we live our lives in fast forward, running from one soccer field to another, one youth group to another, one meeting to another, one homework assignment to another... I am blessed to get our house in order during the day so we can run everywhere BUT our house during the evening. Hmm. That seems kind of backwards, but then I remind myself that September is like this for us every year. Once October comes we settle down and live in our home a bit more. And most of these busy activites are fun--I often remind myself of that, too. :)
Aaron continues to do very well on his Depakote medication. What didn't work last spring is working this fall, and I am VERY grateful for that. I am also at peace with leaving the Lamictal behind. Derek and I think Aaron is still having seizures here and there, but they are so quick--like one second or two--that we are never sure if he's had one or not. What an improvement from last spring! The prayers offered up on his behalf are priceless to us...thank you to each and every one who prays for him. Our God is our Jehovah Rapha--"God who heals."
So, here are the boys at the beginning of their new school year. So far it's a good one! :)

| Braylen needed a bigger and stronger backpack this year. The best way to describe 7th grade in one word--fun! |

| The last time I have two sons in elementary school. The next time Aaron has his brother in school with him will be his freshman year in high school. Wow! That makes this one very special year for Aaron and Kaleb. |
