Another week in the house

We will start with my week. Well, I went to school and glad it's over for the weekend. This weekend, we all went to the eye-doctor. I found out I don't have to wear glasses for a whole month. Ya!!!!!!!!! My flute learning is going well. I could not make a good sound a month ago but now am starting to do better. A lot of practice has helped.

Bubba is caught up in school after taking a week off. He got a good report from the eye-doctor and continues to have good eyes. He and some of his friends are starting a young preachers' club. He really enjoys giving devotional talks and leading in worship. He eats everything in sight and got a new bed this past week which really changed the look of his room. He continues to do well in tae kwon do. He really is a good big brother and I am starting to learn how to tell him that.

Mom just completed another phase of a huge project she is working on with her co-workers at work. The project itself will not be completed until November but it is moving along. There was no change in her eyes but the eye-doctor (a good friend of Mom and Dads') sure likes to talk to Mom! Mom got her eyes dilated and had to have Bubba help her tell the difference between a salt packet and pepper packet from a restaurant! Her question to Bubba was, "JT, does this say, 'salt?'" Everyone laughed really hard. Mom will get even next year when the rest of us have to get our eyes dilated! Mom and the doctor talk a lot but really don't talk much about eyes, if you get my drift! She really is a great Mom who took me to one of my favorite restaurants (Olive Garden) yesterday! We had a great time.

Dad got a great report from the eye doctor who lessened the strength of his prescription, said the blood-pressure in his eyes is better, diagnosed his eyes in better condition, and said a lot of it is probably due to him losing weight. Dad was really happy about that! Dad has been taking care of us while Mom has been working late every night. We are all ready for Mom to come back! Especially me!! Dad took JT to his favorite restaurant yesterday (Genghis Grill) and they both were crazy happy! (or maybe just crazy!).
