Help!

My dishwasher has died, I think. Wayne called me yesterday, said he started it and water started coming out of it. Now it won't drain. I am hoping that MAYBE it is clogged, but with my luck it won't be that easy or that cheap. Pray for the dishwasher.

On a more serious note, please pray for Ashleigh. I'm not sure what is going on with her but she has this whole "new" group of friends that she is hanging out with and she's only talking to maybe 1 or 2 of her old friends. I saw Devin in my office yesterday and it was like she didn't want to even talk to me. This is the kid that runs up, hugs me and calls me Momma. I don't understant what is going on. I don't know if it is something that they are doing or if it's something Ashleigh is doing they don't like. Ashleigh has always been such a great kid, she has the teenage attitude sometimes, but on the whole she is a great kid. I wish I could get her to talk to me about what is going on.

We made it through Chuck E. cheese, a little poorer, but the kids had a great time. Even the older 2 had fun with the little guys. My brother couldn't believe that we actually planned to go there and it wasn't something that Blake had asked for. Now Blake can't wait to go back.

Ashleigh has been gone all week, I will be glad to have her home again. She has been baby sitting for the 11 week old granddaughter of one of the girls I work with. They live in West Virginia so she stayed with them for the week. I've talked to her everyday and she's been having a really good time. My office manager has a daughter Ashleigh's age so she picked Ashleigh up last night and took her to a yard party with them. I talked to Ashleigh last night around 11 and they were on their way home, she said she had a great time with Kathy and her daughter Kristen.

Football is off and running, I'm not sure if it's Blake or Rusty having the better time. Blake is just so excited, I guess it's because he is such a busy child and doesn't sit still for long so this works really good for him. He likes baseball but he gets bored with it too easy, I think.

We all need to make sure we pray for the soldiers in Iraq and for the families of the soldiers that just lost their lives. My husband and I adopted a soldier in January and we send him care packages. Every time I hear of a soldier dying it really scares me. We have never met him and we have only recieved one email from him but we feel like he belongs to us. The National Guard from our area returned from Iraq this weekend and there was such a turnout to celebrate. We are just so thankful they are home safely.

Have a great day!
