Oh, boy! Are you plugged in?

Yep- that's right... Are you plugged in? Jake came home yesterday with a green slip from P.E.! Not good for those of you that don't know. I asked him what he did to get that..."I stuck my finger in the plug on the wall". "YIKES!!! Jake, do you know that can really hurt you?" "Ummmm..yes I do now". "Did the P.E. coach tell you that?" "No, you did." UGH! It really bothers me that he is such a follower. He has to learn the hard way sometimes. He is so funny about following rules once he knows them. But, if it is a unknown rule and looks fun...he will go for it! Never mind common sense. I just hope we can provide him with enough knowledge that he will know when to follow others and when NOT to the older he gets!
This is a prayer request... we are really try to buy a house! So, in this savings period we get to eat beans and rice often. Ha ha! No really...we have a few medical bills to pay off and try to save for a house too. Please pray that we will be able to this with a Godly attitude and remember the wonderful things ahead. Things keep coming up and our money has to leave savings!!!! Jason had a expensive computer issue with his truck. We thought it was covered under warranty and then not, and then yes..But it is NOT covered. That is a lovely chunk of money. I am staying at home this year. I do not help bring home any income right now. So,I am trying very hard to be frugal and not waste any money. Awww..this is very hard sometimes! So, please pray for patience and willpower to stay on task to meet our future goals.
