Birthday

We have had a blast celebrating Emma!  She has turned 13 and now we officially have two teenagers in the family.  It's is so crazy!  It seems like such a short time ago that she was newly born and Garth brought her up front in church to show her off to all of you!  She has a sweet heart and is a delight to be around. One of her birthday "cakes" this year (by request) had to be a no egg cookie dough masterpiece.  It was great to see her face when she realized I actually made it!  Ha! 

Another point of excitement in the Erickson household is the baby squirrel we have been taking care of.  It fell out of its' nest with no mamma around.  The kids named her Ibsy and she is just about old enough now to be on her own.

Wyatt needed a quick trip to the doctor after an accident in PE at school.  Turns out it is just a sprain of his knee and ankle with some pulled ligaments.  It could have been worse so we are so thankful, and it looks like he should be back in baseball in about a week.

We are still praying about going to Indo.  For now God has us walking down that path, and we will continue to until He turns us a different way.  Nothing has been finalized but we feel strongly that God is asking us to be obedient.  It is exciting but scary.  As a family we have mixed emotions about leaving.  It is no fun to say "Good-Bye", but so  blessed to be where God wants you to be.  Please pray with us about this.
