It's been awhile!


Hey Everyone

Yep, it's me - we're all still hanging in there. I'm still getting used to my new hearing aid and so is everyone else around me. Geoff can now whisper in my right ear "I love you" and I can actually hear him. It's so cool! I can't even begin to describe the new noises I hear because I've never heard them before. But let me say this, from the furnace turning on, to the sounds the car makes while I'm driving - everything is different. Even the wind sounds strange to me. Did you know that when rain falls it actually makes noise? I didn't.

Geoff is getting ready for graduation (the count down is at the bottom). Papers, reading, and more papers need to be completed in the next three weeks, then he meets with the Board of Ministerial Standards. They are the people that basically hold Geoff accountable during his school and ordination. After he graduates he'll have another year of being mentored then we can get ready for his Ordination some time next year.

Brianna is also getting ready for graduation. She is all set to move in with Grandma and Grandpa in Moncton to start attending ABU. Geoff and I will miss her terribly but not as much as her brother. Poor kid is going to have to put up with his parents ALONE!

Ben got new shoes last week - you know the saying "Act your age not your shoe size"? Well for Ben that's one in the same - his shoe size is a 13!!!! We haven't measured him yet but I'm guessing if he's not 6 ft he's very close.

Well, that's all the news for now. I hope you all enjoy the spring!!!!!!!

Count Down to Graduation

40 Days till Geoff's Graduation
87 Days till Brianna's Graduation

Have a great week
Deb

Hi Folks,
This is so awesome with your hearing aid. Happy it is working so well for you! Only 40 days left until Geoff's graduation. You must all be very excited about this--what a blessing! We are extremely happy for you Geoff--Congratulations!!!!! We still miss YOU!! It's hard to believe that Brianna is graduating in 87 days, the time just goes too fast, at least you know that when she attends university she will be in the very best hands-God and your Parents! We Miss You and Love You All.
