Keeping Busy

Jourdyn is a junior higher this year, which means new and exciting things. One of those things is BLAST. The Nazarene church does this for its youth ministries. It's basically a talent competition but it includes sports, art, math, singing, instruments, prose, etc. Jourdyn has decided to complete in vocal performance, piano, entering a painting and taking the math test. She is going to play "Forever" on the piano. And she is going to sing "Me and Jesus" by StellarKart. We will be going to Hobby Lobby to purchase a canvas and paints for her to do her painting. She is thinking of copying a Matisse or Van Gogh with her own twist, but really hasn't decided.

I can tell you though it is going to make for one busy month of March. All of the kids birthday's are just around the corner. Nadine and Rowan first. They are having a combined birthday party with just some of our friends, including Ju, Bro and Dad. Then Jourdyn has hers at the end of the month. Party wise we were going to have one but she decided to participate in BLAST so now we are going to just have to see if time allows for one. But she also has two quiz meets in March. One on the 7th and the other on the 21st.

Nadine was invited to her first Tea on the 7th as well and that's Rowan's birthday. So that day will definitely be busy. March is just going to be a really busy month! But it will definitely be fun!

I cannot believe that Rowan will be 3, Nadine 5 and Jourdyn 12.

Also we FINALLY got Rowan's sleep study results back. Good news is his EEG was negative, which means that it is not his brain causing the sleep apnea (which he does have). So they are sending him to see good ole Peds Pulm at Toledo Hospital. They will have to determine the next steps to take. But he is experiencing apnea on a nightly basis. They cannot get him in until April 23rd! Two months away! Could you imagine how long he would have to wait if we had socialized/universal health care? This time next year we'd still be waiting.
