So, Halloween went well, Me, Dad, and Grandpa Dave took Zen trick-or-treating, while Aunt Kelly stayed home to hand out candy. We haven't really done anything for my birthday yet (with the exception of buying a small birthday cake from Wal-Mart after dropping Zen off for daycare, and consuming the entire confection by myself for breakfast).
On Tuesday, he was adamant about wearing snow boots to school. I gave up and conceded. It didn't seem to matter that it hasn't snowed yet. After school we went to Wal-Mart to pick up stuff for dinner. I looked at his boots and sighed. I told him "You know it's not snowing" he looks up at me and says "You are wearing running shoes" I reply "So?" and he reminds me "You're not running". I had no reply. That would be what my kid would say...
School is going kinda rough, and it looks as if I may graduate a hair shy of honors. I am praying for peace with that. I just feel like I am busting my butt, and that all the other parts of my life are taking all but the minimum away from school.
Prayer Requests:
That God will continue to provide for us financially (even if it continues to be at the last minute)
For school, it takes so much from me and it is really disheartening to be doing not as well this semester.
For patience with Zen. He is smart, and adept at driving me crazy.

ok, that made me laugh hard core. That is definately something your kid would say. "running shoes" hah!
anyhow, he's beautiful and smart as you and so i'm not surprised he's good at driving you crazy. after all, he is YOUR son.
but squeeze him super tight from me. and know that i love you guys, i do. i wish i was there to let you know everday but please know i think about you guys everyday.
Awww.. great post Heather... can't wait to see that smart-as-a-whip little nephew of mine here in a few weeks. Keep your chin up... God always provides and you will remember more the time you have spent with Zen than you will what your GPA was. Keep you good perspectives... I am so proud of you!
