The First Week of School 2012

Well, it started out to be a good school year.  The boys have great teachers, and they seem to be happy.  I am a happy mom, too!  I pray for their teachers - past and present - during the summer before school starts again.  I really pray they have teachers who will lead them to be more than they are, but also, I pray for God to protect them from things they shouldn't know. 

Bayker has been coming up with some really theological questions lately.  I know he is a very intelligent boy, but Wow!  I didn't ask these questions until I was in my 20's.  I pray God will protect his mind from lies that are in this world that will redirect him from God.  I also pray this for Jaxon. 

We will be traveling to Charleston on Monday to have Jaxon fitted for his hearing aids.  I am excited and can hardly wait for his first reaction to what he has never heard.  Did you know that a baby's ears are formed to their fullest between 6 and 7 weeks gestation?  I didn't either until I started researching what happened to Jaxon's hears to have a malformation.  I can't believe it was so early in the womb.  I worry Jaxon will be shunned or be made an outcast because of his hearing aids.  I hope no one at school notices his hearing aids after Monday.  I think once he goes in with them it won't be a big deal, but as a parent, you worry.

I start school again on September 1st.  I have to get into the boy's rooms and get them cleared out a little bit in order for them to sit in their rooms and do homework.  They each have a desk, so I'm getting excited for them to have a quiet place to work.

Stephen is doing well at work.  He has been having whole body pains for some time now, but the doctor gave him some meds to help, and he seems to be in better spirits as well as feeling better physically.  I just pray it continues to be this way.

Well, this is what's going on in the Mahan house.  I hope you all are having a great start to a great year as well.
