News from the Infirmary

Appears we are all on the mend. It has been nearly 3 weeks since the first fever struck.

Jared wins the award for the highest fever (103.8) and the least amount of complaining. Well.....All the kids did well not to complain.

Duncan, who joined our infirmary for a few days, didn't complain either. In fact he was all giggles when he would have a coughing attack. Hard to laugh and cough at the same time, but he managed it.

Raelyn wins the award for most missed days of school. I believe it was 4 days.

Rachelle wins the award for biggest pile of used tissues. Gross! I believe it was an actual WHOLE box of tissues.

Rod wins the award for MOST complaints!

I win the overall Best award, because I had to put up with all of this!

When all the kids were sick, Duncan included, in their varying stages of illness. Rod and I joked about how we needed cots to set up in the living room to tend to them all.

So now we are on the upswing, improving each and everyday. Yea!

Day starter :)

PSALMS 18: 1-2
I love you, O Lord, my strengh.
The Lord is my rock, my fortress
and my deliverer;
my God is my rock, in whom I
take refuge.

That verse,
is a wonderful day starter!!! So when I run into something bad today that doesn't go my way, I can just think about this verse and know that he is my strength, my rock, my fortress, and my deliverer. Reading the Bible in the morning or at night is great because you can think about it all day and it WILL help you. I can personally say the Bible has really helped me. I know longer fight with my sister (well I don't fight with her that much), I don't fight with my friends, and I want to hang out with my parents more! Before is started reading the Bible I was getting to the stage where I no longer want to hang out with my parents, but since I've been reading the Bible it's been opposite of that. Same with my sister and friends. Before I was reading the Bible, I was fighting with them a lot, but now I'm not! Well I better go, Bye!!!- Raelyn:):):)

Last BasketBall game

Hello everyone! Well on Thursday we had our last basketball game. It went VERY well. I'm not sure if we won or lost... there's a long story to that. I guess I have time, so I can tell you. Well we were VERY evenly matched. It ended up at the last minute it was 10 to 9. We were keeping the ball away from them, and when my friend Jessica had the ball, a girl went up and touched her and the referee called it a jump ball. He also gave the ball to the wrong team. It was only 1 referee, I don't know why. Maybe because North Lake is a VERY small town. Well anyways, they (North Lake) scored at the last 5 seconds. I felt really bad because I almost scored at the last second and it was really close to being in. So the score was 11 to 10 and we lost for about 5 minutes, then the referee and the scoring people had a talk, but they wouldn't give in. Finally the girl that went up even talked to the referee about it. So they deducted the 2 points North Lake made. So today at school half of us were saying we won, and half of us were saying we lost. I was so confused, I just said we tied, because we won and lost. Well I better get going. Thanks- Raelyn:)
