Just a short update to let everyone know things are going fine. This picture was back in May when Beverly and I took Erin on her 7th grade chorus competition at King's Dominion. The chorus performed well winning their division and we had a great time with Erin at the park.Erin has successfully passed 7th grade with the help of some fantastic teachers within the York County school district. She received all A's and B's and one C on her report card. Erin has grown about 3 inches and is starting to become a young lady (much to my fear as a Father). Aah, but with 3 daughters my shotgun is still warm fending off those boys ;-)
No big issues to discuss other then Erin is a typical 14 year old girl. She's smart, likes food, does incredible cross-stitch work, likes pink anything, and wants to be occupied every minute of the day and will let you know if you are not helping her achieve her perceived "busyness" level. She loves animals (sometimes much more the humans). She is a very hard worker when she puts her mind to it. Always the first to help wash the dishes...or the dog for that matter. And she likes the idea of earning a few bucks when doing extra work outside normal daily Bruce kid requirements.
School is out for the summer and we are heading down to Florida to see relatives this August while getting Zachary into the University of Central Florida. So maybe we can take the kids to Disney or Universal while we are in Orlando.
Erin plans on a good school schedule next year and is signed up to take Spanish. Good grief!! As if 3 languages isn't already enough! But she wants to take it so she can be like her big brother and sister.
Anyway, that's it for now. Thank you all for your thoughts and prayers. They sure work!
