Some March Happenings

Jacob was rushing into the house yesterday to tell us there was a dog outside. Baruch was standing in front of the door. I am not exactly sure how, but Baruch's baby toe on his left foot has a huge gash on the underside as a result of Jacob's abrupt entry. It was so bad I could hardly stand to look at it. Drew said it was like role reversal 'cause usually he is the one that can't take the sight of blood. It was just before Drew was leaving for a meeting. He held Baruch while I fed everyone, then passed him off. Poor Baruch, when he finally did get down to walk on it he hobbled around on the heal with his toes high in the air. It truly was a pitiful sight. He was still walking like that on it most of today. Finally walked on it normal tonight. This morning Jacob went out to feed the chickens. We had tried feeding them scraps a couple times last week and they didn't seem too interested, so per Kari's suggestion I mashed everything up in the blender yesterday. They gobbled it down! Cob was taking out this mornings mashings and thought he would open the trap door to let them out so he could get a better angle to scape in the mash. ANYWAY long story short, before long I had a screaming boy on my hands paniced because his precious Bawk Bawk was roaming in the alley. Between the two of us we were able to get Bawk Bawk safely back in her home. She and all the others enjoyed their mash! We are going to a 10 week Bible Study on Ephesians which is meeting at Emmaus Bible College and consists of families from our church. Tonight was week 4 and covered Ephesian 2:11-3:13. It has been very good study. Tomorrow night our supervising teacher comes. I always appreciate her input and knowing she is coming keeps me motivated to stay on task most days. Friday night Drew and I have a sitter lined up and hope to have a dinner date. Then Saturday MAYBE we will get that girls room painted once and for all! Drew did do the ceiling last Saturday and I got all the holes patched today. There were tons as the former home owners had shelving on two walls which we are not putting back up.
