It's official

We are entering the world of teenage love. Kelsea has her first jr high boyfriend. There has been much talking on the phone and much anguish from a mom who still believes she is not ready for the world of teenagers in like with each other. Much moaning and groaning went on here and "NO it can't be." Little sis Kelsea didn't realize she robbed the first born of initiating the parents so she gets the brunt of our parental adjustment. Amber has yet to get to that herself. But a boy with a really big crush on her is about to turn 16 this week so we will see what happens there. For Amber it is torment reminding her of that. So we torment her as much as we can.

We spent Friday enjoying our time at home. On Sat the girls and I went to Dylan and Kailyns Basketball games and Amber and I played and led music for the stake baptism. One little boy from our ward was baptized. The High Councilman over the stake baptisms is in our ward and he was, I hope, joking when he said they should extend a stake calling to us to do that for every stake baptism. You should seen the look of horror on Amber's face. We hurried back home and changed really fast and went to dinner at Carls Jr and went and saw Happy Feet at the dollar theatre. Lee Joe met us at the theatre. The pile of shed finally left on Sat and Lee Joe was helping the friend he gave it to put it together. Today we made it to church EARLY!!! Two sisters were not there in nursery today and most of our really little ones were there. One of the gals in there is not very attentive or very helpful and our other lady who is wonderful, had one of the little ones fall asleep on her lap so I was frustrated with Lee Joe's ADTPD and the unhelpful one and 10 very very young little squirmy cute kids was like sheep herding babies into their chairs. It seemed like 20.

By the way as far as reunion goes. We will be in the throes of two high schoolers at the beginning of summer and it will be necessary for them to take summer school classes so they can take seminary during the school day-as our stake advocates for. And for Kelsea to take some interesting classes next year and be able to have her AVID study hall class she might be taking 2 classes. So they will be attending summer school until Fri July 6. It is not like I really want us to give up that chunk of our summer to more school or even the expense of the classes but it looks like that is the way it must be. After that date we would have been more open to activity. But seeing that things have been decided, there you have it. We will be there when we can. I suppose that is the way it will be from now on with kids in high school.
