Landis went for his Kindergarten testing yesterday morning. He did very well, as I expected. :) However, he didn't know where his "heel" was, nor did he recognize the numbers 9 and 19, for whatever reason. He knew how to spell his first name (Bobby) and was able to tell the teacher his address, phone number and birthday. He was so excited about being tested he asked if he could stay and continue with more. "Sorry," I said, "there are others coming to be tested and we have to get out of their way."
Bobby left yesterday morning for work and said he'd spend the night out where they are working (around the Dale Hollow area) and wouldn't come home until Wednesday night after church. However, he called this evening and said he was on his way home because they had been called to work around Paducah...northwest of Nashville instead of east. He was also called to a meeting at the church this morning with Pastor Sarah and so he needed to be home for that.
A couple of weeks ago, Pastor Davis preached about going through different seasons in our lives. One of the things he said was that we need to embrace the season we are in. It made me think about Grace and the "season" of Cerebral Palsy. I wondered, "how do I embrace the season of CP without accepting it as if it were God's will for her life?"
Yesterday morning in Sunday School in the Beth Moore video we were watching, she said something about seasons and then the word servant was mentioned. That's all I remember and then right after that the thought came to me, "You embrace the season of Cerebral Palsy by serving your daughter."

Isn't funny how little things like "where's your heel?" escape notice? I mean, I try to teach Owen stuff all the time but then something obvious comes up and I realize I neglected it...maybe because it's too obvious.
