Time to Catch Up

Things have been so utterly crazy in my life. I can't begin to think about catching up the blog as far as academics. From the 2nd week of March through mid April, the kids and I went out of town 3 times to help care for my grandmother and mother. My grandmother is bed-ridden with a brain tumor, mini-strokes, and seizures. She is at home with helpers coming in and my parents living there. My mother lost her sight in both eyes and had to have surgery on one of them. She is having a slow recovery, but should regain her sight in one eye. They will deal with the other later.

We did manage to get school work done, but it has been more of the essentials than any fluff. Co-op lasted through the first part of April. I was able to plan all my trips around that so we could be there since I am the director.

We had some fun times, too. Hannah turned 13, and we went to a resort with an indoor water park for her birthday. We felt like 13 was a time to do something really special. We went to visit Darin's family for his spring break. I'll post pictures later.
