Bragging

Time out for a message from ObnoxiaMomma, the one who is PROUD of her daughter(s) and son:

Update on Ben:
He is doing well in school, having just enjoyed a two day break. He's still dating Jolene, and doing a nice job visiting Grandma and Grandpa in Wadena. He will be taking a break from school in January as he will be deployed to Iraq for six months as a part of the Air National Guard (Fargo 119th)deployment. We're not sure where he'll be.

Yes you can pray for him...and me!

Update on Anna:
She has just been named to the AIS National Honor Society. Along with that, she's playing JV volleyball (never played before!) AND Varsity soccer (scored a goal the other night. Papa was soooo proud)AND she's involved in the speech team (called Forensics here). Oh yeah, and she's got a social life. She's currently struggling with Arabic classes (gee-can't imagine why) but school is going well. She loves her art classes, although she believes the art teacher stays up late all night to plan assignments that are HARD.

You can pray that Anna continues to do so well because that makes it alot easier to be in a foreign place. We have newbie friends whose children are not adjusting so well, and it's tough(er).

Update of the "Girls"-Zowie and Angel
According to their new keepers, they are doing well. Both dogs have made trips to the vet for various reasons, but they are well. I imagine that Zowie loves the farm and has probably had more than her share of adventures with the horses and cats and raccoons. I know Angel is living the good life curling up to SmartWoman's back and trying not to torment her cats.

You can pray that they will forgive us...see post below
