We had a great anniversary weekend. My in-laws watched Ransom while we went up to Macatawa Lake for a dinner at this pretty nice place overlooking a boat harbor. An anonymous friend gave all the students at my school a $50 gift certificate there. How is hot is that?! The food was stinking delicious. The kind of food thats so good you just keep looking at each other & smiling and nodding your head up and down and saying, “mmm-mhh,” over & over again. We also saw went saw the Star Trek flick which I loved and was fully engaged with from beginning to end though I have no prior Star Trek knowledge. And then when we got home we rented the movie, “Milk.” I cannot say anything more about that right now because I have a huge long blog just brewing about it ~ in a nutshell, it was amazing.

Last Tuesday, was Ran’s last day of pre-school & they had a little performance they did for the parents. Ransom did not sing one single song of the 8-10 they sang. He looked so bored & at one point lifted up his shirt & decide to analyze his nipples. It was so hillarious. There was also the kid who sang 3 octave’s higher than everyone else, the kid who sang so much louder than everyone else & the little girl who got down on the ground & flashed every one. It was a true performance of 3 year olds. I can’t wait to post a few pics & videos.

His teacher made all the kids this precious album of their year in pictures with a progress report. She said what I’d been suspecting all along that Ransom may need some speech therapy as he is difficult to understand. I started crying. Of course, I was also crying during the singing, and I was also crying during Star Trek -within the first five minutes- and so it’s quite obvious that my emotions are a bit off kilter, but it did however make me sad thinking about how often folks don’t understand him. I am thankful that he’ll get some help now though.

On the baby front… I am getting big very quickly. It’s almost as if my belly “popped,” over night…again, I’ll post a pic later. I’m also starting to waddle a bit as my center of gravity changes…and this time around I feel like my belly is really stretched to it’s limit. On a great note, I can feel the baby moving all day long, which has really helped me to bond even more. I’m really excited to give birth to this little pumkin.

Lastly, I’ve got a schooch bit more of studying to do. My classis exams are this Tue. & then next Sunday I’m preaching at a Chinese Church. I’m a wee bit nervous about that, honestly, but excited all the same. Anyhoo, that’s the family round-up. 😉
