October

September 25th while playing with his brother Colin ran into the end of a NERF gun and got a gash under his nose that required stitches. The amount of blood that comes from a cut on the face can be pretty shocking but after some first aid I was able to talk to a nurse who sent me to the ER. So for the first time I had to take one of the boys to the ER. They were quick and fast and with some glue and steri-strips he was good to go.

October 1st Colin turned 5. His injury almost all healed up.

But Brady still had the desire to be baptized and the Nordstroms property allowed for as to have a nice private setting with a pool where we could meet for the sacred ordinance. even my parents were able to come from Utah and join us for the weekend.

 Just a quick post of the past few months.

Due to Covid-19 the boys all started school with distance learning. Nathan now in 6th grade with Mrs Sutton. Brady in 3rd grade with Mr. Berry and Colin starting TK with Ms. Branco. I picked up Chromebooks from the school and set up desk for each of them in different rooms. Its been rough and we look forward to the time they will be allowed back on compass.
