UPDATE

Ethen is doing well in school. He is cathching on to multiplication. Angela has been teaching him the concept using beans. He is doing well in Reading. He is one of the top readers in his class. Check this out he is reading Chronicles of Narnia series and he's only in 3rd grade. He says there are 5 girls that are "in love" with him. They think he is cute. One of them he says is "very annoying", she is constantly bothering him and wanting him to call her at home after school, and when they are in line, she is always touching him. I want to know what happen the the famous 6-inch rule. I do believe Angela will be taking care of this if it continues. At any rate, he sort of likes school in Texas which is better than hating it. I'm hoping it will get better as the year goes on. At any rate, I'm glad they are closer to home.

Calling all teachers or anyone else that can help!

In case you havn't been following my blogs, Ethen started a new school in Corpus. Very different from the Maine school he attended. He has done well on the reading portion, scored a 97 (only missed one question). Our delema is the math. He is in the 3rd grade and apparently in Texas they have finished teaching multiplication and division. In Maine they hadn't introduced this yet. There school year is different, so I kind of think they were going to introduce this in the next few months. At any rate we don't want him to struggle in Math. Math is one of his favorite subjects. SO ANY OF YOU TEACHERS or anyone else have any suggestions that would work to catch him up for those INFAMOUS TASK TESTS.

GOD IS FAITHFUL

I've been praying for Ethen especially this week as he started a new school on Monday. The first day was pretty rough, so I've been praying that God would reveal himself to Ethen and do something special for him each day. Today in the lunch room some boys called him over to eat with them. Another student in Ethen's class who (by God's design) is one of his friends stopped Ethen and told him not to go over to them because they are bullys and they will corner you and pick on you. This was one of Ethen's major concerns that there would be kids that would pick on him. God again was faithful and was watching out for Ethen. Isn't that just like our God to keep and perfect those thngs that concern us. His word says he gives his angels charge concerning us. I would say that Ethen's angels were on double duty today.

He had to take a reading test. He scored a 97. Only missed one question. so far the only struggle he has is Math (which happens to be his favorite subject) Apparently they have already finished multiplication and divison. In Maine, he hadn't started that yet. So we are learning multiplitcation facts. Just another area for MY GOD to work miracles. I am confident that God will perfect this concern as well.

Thank you Lord, for you are so awsome. When I think your'e a million miles away and I can't seemn to find you, you show me that you do hear when I call out to you and what concerns me concerns you. Thank you for being a real part of my life.
