I have to share with all of you a short, but wonderful piece of Stephen and my life! Many of you only here a small portion of what gones on up here and most of what you here is little weekend adventures we take. Well it's Friday morning and I'm feeling the need to share some of the things that make up our crazy week. So enjoy:)KBM has a skate trailer full of well, . . . skates and helmets. Anyway somehow it has become my job to make sure people get the skates and all that. Well I've come to dislike the skate trailer, mostly because every time I'm at the rink it is soooo cold. Well we were doing skating with one of our after school programs and it was not only extremely cold, but the wind gust were incredible, creating these white out conditions. Well I was trying to move to huge tubs of helmets from the skate trailer to the rink, when one of these gust came up. It completely flipped me around and did all it could to take the tubs from my grips. I held on for dear life only to then fall into the skate trailer. I wanted to cry, mostly from my frustration.
Stephen meets with kids throughout the week. Well he was meeting with one boy and they were trying to come up with a way to keep all the mean and angry thoughts away and they came up with this spray bottle that the boy had to spray to turn angry mean thoughts and things into happy nice thoughts. About mid week Stephen received this amazing e-mail from the boy, over joyed that this spray bottle was really helping keep all the scary stuff away!Many people know Stephen has a wild imagination. Well he was taking a walk with another student he meets with and it happened to be very foggy. Now this boy is a tall kid, actually just as tall or taller than Stephen. Anyway Stephen started letting his imagination run wild, telling the boy they'd better be careful on their walk because with the dense fog it was probably they
would get lost, or even separated. This boy took my husbands words very seriously and insisted that they hold hands. I can only imagine how cute it must have looked to see Stephen and this tall young man walking through the playground hand in hand.We're in the mist of exciting days at the Mission. We're preparing to build a big Heritage Center (with a new gym!!) Well yesterday we were doing some preliminary digging and low and behold we dug up a big wooden box. What was in the box, you might ask? A horse! Yes, we dug up a horse and no, it was not one we had buried and can you believe it was in a horse casket. Amazing.
Another really big thing this week has been sickness. Alot of kids have been sick and it's the coming out of both directions sick (not fun at all!) I won't go into detail, but I caught it on Tuesday (made for a long day!) But besides from a little Kodiak Crud that Stephen and I have, we're doing ok!
Ok, well I know this was all very random, and there are so many more little stories, but this will have to do for now.
