It's hard to believe that as I write this post, we've already been out of school for a week. Summer's flying by already! The year ended with a bang of the usual field trips, awards, recitals, etc. -- busy, but fun.
Abigail was awarded a certificate for high honor roll for 6th grade. Here she is with her friend, Emma.
Rebecca received an award for high honor roll (yes!) and she also was awarded the Model Student Award for English. We cannot say enough about Mrs. Webb, her English teacher. Without her support and care, Rebecca would not have come so far in English. We'll miss having her as a teacher next year.
At church, the Leaders-in-Training (LITs) held a year-end service as well. The sixth graders, who will soon be heading to the youth group (yikes!) were recognized. Abigail performed with her puppet group. Mrs. May said she will definitely miss Abigail next year.
Three Amigos - Brittany, Ally, Abigail
We also learned that Jeff's dad, who has battled cancer for 3 1/2 years is coming to the end of that battle. He has a fast-growing brain tumor and has been given only a few weeks to live. As soon as we heard, we headed to Buna for a weekend to spend time with Mr. Holmes. It was a very special time, but hard to leave knowing that we might not see him again this side of heaven. We are praying that God would grant him a peaceful passing into eternity.

Way to go for both girls! I can't believe Abigail's going into the youth group. And Rebecca - well, that's just awesome that she got high honor roll. All her hard work paid off.
So sorry to hear about Jeff's dad. I'm praying for you guys and the whole family for peace and comfort during this difficult time.
