O People..;

We have many things happening right now.

We are hosting a student from China as she prepares to start school this fall at the University.

We are finishing up "The Cabin" for selling. Still some stuff to get rid of, stuff to move. The outside painting and refurbishing is yet to begin. We really want to sell it soon, and the market is favorable right now.

My brother is here from New York City with his family. We've had fun brunch and coffee times together. Yesterday the circus (Carson and Barnes) was in town, and we all went to see the elephants get a bath from the local fire department.

I love elephants.

Cherie and I actually went to the Circus last evening, and it was quite the show!

I like these smaller, family owned circuses better than the big ones. They seem so quaint.

The rest of the family went to the St. Paul Saints baseball game. "Wishes and More" supplied four tickets to see them win against Lincoln's team. The Saints have a new stadium right downtown Saint Paul, and it's pretty nice, I hear!

With trips downtown everyday, out to the airport, up to the cabin---it's been exhausting.

Ed has a condition which has resulted in difficulty walking and this has an effect on our lives, too.

Adjustments.

The weather has been gorgeous. I've been trying to keep the grass from taking over. Small things.

Cherie had the pep-talk for school this morning. We home-schoolers do this every once in awhile. It's time to rev up for the next school accomplishments. Ed has to get back on track too. He takes the ACT in September.

Life just keeps happening!

September. What will it be? Expectations can be dashed, but it's good to have them at times.

I expect completely that God is in control of each situation, each event. That's comforting.

Off to get our Chinese student a driving permit----
