Teach Them Diligently Conference

We are going to the Teach Them Diligently Conference! I am a little nervous about taking everyone up but we will have help from our parents, thankfully! I fear however that I will GREATLY miss my little people! They will be with one of our parents during the conference and I am just not sure I am ok with that, lol. I will likely have to leave so that I can spend time with them. Some people might think that it's unhealthy to miss them like that but I just LOVE them. I would take them with me but I fear that they would be overwhelmed with all the people there. I guess I will just have to wait and see. The kids are very excited. Not only are they excited about the conference, they have been giddy over the free breakfast from the hotel. I have been undecided about what to do for their meals, which is NOT free, lol. At the conference there will be vendors, chick-fil-a, subway, etc.. but I imagine it will be costly and very busy. I am thinking we will likely bring something, that way it won't take us as long and I can keep it healthy. I NEED healthy food so that I can pay attention, I will likely be exhausted and some good food always helps.

The past several weeks have been difficult with Melody, though the last 2 nights she has done well. She is so precious, she just wants to feel loved and close to you. She had a lot of congestion at night that would wake her up and she needed to know we were there. Adding to the lack of sleep was Jason's work schedule and the pressure right before a deployment. He has had a lot of stress on him because his project was deployed the end of last week. God blessed him though! He has had only minor changes here and there. That is a huge praise report because it could have been disastrous! He is still recovering from being sick last weekend as well, so this has been a crazy week but we can see God all in it. Isn't it wonderful when you catch a glimpse of just how much he loves us and cares for our needs? What name can you give him to describe his character and relationship to us?
