Basketball has been a big part of life these days....
The "little girls" are cheerleaders for Xenia Christian, so Kevin and I try to get to as many of those games as possible. I've recently been trying to go to Kevin wheelchair basketball tournaments whenever possible—and they usually cover a whole weekend in various places (Wright State, Detroit, Louisville, Cleveland, etc.—of those, I’m just doing the first two)
Everyone’s good. The master’s work is very slow. Hard to get interviews.
Kevin just got a job down at the VA medical center, working as a service officer for the DAV (Disabled American Veterans). It really seems to be a God-provided fit: he helps veteran’s with the paperwork that he’s been doing for himself these past 20-plus years. Plus he is able to go to all his doctor appointments there without a problem. So far (two weeks), so good.
Yes, I have today off, but I have to do some returns at the Fairfield Commons area, and I have to do some teaching prep. January is a very busy month at XCS; they do a J-Term block scheduling, so the classes I teach are totally different—more challenging and a lot more grading and prep. But I like it.
Galen has celebrated his first birthday. Both the Stanfields and Kevin and I had the privilege of attending.
Sean leaves for Afghanistan in early February. The Lord answered this prayer regarding a mature, reliable roommate, so we are grateful for that. Please pray for Christina as she will be “alone” with toddler Galen for a year. We’re going to go down to see them at the end of January.
