Here's Coach Jeff with our team: The Green Zoo!You can see little Elliot there to the left, with his name on the back of his jersey (Cobra-which he's since changed to Cobra Dragon, lol)
Here's Quien waiting for his chance to go after the ball as his teamate gets ready to throw it in from the corner. He loves that teamate's name-Anakin LOL
Quien sure loves "charging" the ball!
Yep, even Elliot got into the game! He LOVES kicking the ball-now if we could just get him to aim better!
Quien, aka Turtle, taking a water break while cheering his teamates on.
Jeff and I are having SO much fun being the coach/assistant coach for the boys' soccer team. We've got some really great kids.
Besides soccer we also have the kids' school stuff starting. We have to split ourselves in fours this week for the daycare kids ( we have 4, going on 7 by the end of the month) Katie, Monica and Ty's school's open houses and then Quien's next week as well-then there's the soccer practices Tues/Thursday, games on Saturdays-oh, and there's also Jeff's reffing going on for football so we're really busy with that added in.
But we're loving life right now and so grateful to Heavenly Father for blessing our family. The miracle of having Kmt only 1/2 hour away instead of 3 hours away is making me so happy right now I could burst!!!
I get to go have lunch with them once a week now instead of once or twice a year, I'll be there for their school functions and Katie's violin recitles, and be able to make sure the three of them do well in school, are active in sports and school activities. Basically, I get to be their Mom again.
Quien is still in love with school-and a neat thing called Homework! He LOVES it! LOL Right now he has a sheet of Math homework every night and he's just a whiz at it-so SMART!!
His speech therepist says he's doing really really well, and thinks he (like Monica was) will be at grade level and have no signs of the Apraxia by the time he's in 4th grade-or sooner if we keep helping him at home.
Jeff and I are doing everything in our power to get things in our life straightened our from our divorces so that we can be sealed in the Portland Temple by our 5th anniversary. It should be easy for us to be able to do-we love eachother so much and have an eternal marraige already. But, there are rules we must follow and therefore we have "hoops" we must jump through to appease the ex's and the rules-such as saving up $2,000 to get the adoption process completed for Quien and Elliot to be legally adopted by Jeff.
Whatever it takes, we're gonna do it.!!
Don't worry-we'll send invites when we get things ready!!
hugs to all!
love Jeff and Fawn Hoagland
