Wow, I got on this time.
\nFirst, congrats to Davey’s and Thomas’s parents! Many blessings!
\nThank you for the prayers as well. I was a little bummed to find out I had gestational diabetes, I suppose because 1) I was not sure what that meant and 2) I kind of feel like I do not need anything else on my plate. I am seeing an endocrinologist on Tuesday, but last Monday I met with the nutritionist. I am feeling much better because my eating habits turned out to not be so bad after all. She gave me a little glucose monitor, and so far my blood sugar seems OK, so I must be just on the border. But like Peony mentioned, the whole “well, after so many pregnancies, your body’s abililty to cope has been reduced” thing is getting old.
\nThe kids are well. As Peony mentioned, two weeks ago Rosie Posie won a blue ribbon for her cookies in the county fair. Last week they entered a race. Posco came in second fr his age group (8-10). Rosie Posie came in last, but she was not put off. The age group was 11-14, and she is 11. She was happy though because she ran the mile in 9 minutes and she ran the entire mile while many of the other kids had to stop and walk or drop out. She also did it with her shoelaces untied. She said she ws scared at first because many of the kids at the starting line were saying things like “I can beat these kids with no problem”, as it turned out, those were many who had to stop and walk.
\nPosco’s 9th birthday is on October 12 and he wanted very badly for his father to take him to the Usher concert. We actually considered it because he knows all the words to Confessions, Part 2<\/i> anyway. I know, I am a horrible mother. Well the tickets were $55 each anyway to see Usher, which is way to much. We censored much of what they got exposed to for years, but I got tired of listening to Veggie Tales in the car.
\nThere is not much to tell, no news is good news, right? Fall is coming, some of the leaves are changing where we are. Polo has been chopping wood for winter. We went apple picking last weekend and I made apple butter and apple sauce. My neighbor came by with a sack of sweet corn yesterday. Summer went by to fast…
\nWell not much else until next time, pax.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
