LOOOONNNNNGGGGG over due update!!

Hello everyone, I am very sorry for not updating since January but things have been so crazy with the kids, me in school, and just normal day to day stuff.  I will try to remember everything that has been going on!

The first thing I want to start out with is I am so proud of Jonathon!!! He is now officially a high schooler and got into a Tech School that seems to be wonderful and willing to work with us in any way they possibly can.  I am so, excited and nervous at the same time.  I am just so, glad we have this moment to treasure because we thought we would never make it this far and we did HE did and I am proud to have him as my son. On a sour note he was in the hospital last month with an infection for a day. He has 4 of them right now and we will be going to the doctors today to get them looked at praying and keeping my fingers crossed that there is no hospital stay!!!! We have been having a fundraiser for Jonathon I am making bracelets to help support him.  You get to pick your color(s), charm(s) they are $5 a piece with $2-5 for shipping depending on where you live. All the proceeds go to Jonathon for supplies that our insurance doesn't cover and gas for appointments and food for him while we are at those appointments. His appointments are over an 1hr away from home so there is a lot of traveling and now that school is out we will be doing a lot of them. You can pay with Paypal or mail a check or you can even check out my online store at www.etsy.com/shop/mygems3 or you can just email me at whitneyconnolly44@gmail.com that is also the Paypal email. Ariana is now going to be 13 and in 8th grade! She has started making her own clothes and they are awesome!!! I can not wait for her birthday this weekend because I got her a sewing machine and I cant wait to see her bloom with that and the clothes. She is starting to build so, much confidence in herself its awesome. She is having a few school problems but I am hoping instead of summer school I am going to try a home summer school! I want to get her caught up.  Ellie will be entering kindergarden this year and I can not believe that oh my a high schooler and a kindergardener all in the same year my babies are all grown up! They grow up so fast just make sure you treasure every moment with them because you never know when it will be to late. Always hug and say I love you every chance you get my older ones hate it (that don't touch me mom age) but I don't care I want them to know they are loved unconditionally!!! I have been doing ok have some school this summer. Which stinks because the kids have so, much work to do and then with my homework its going to busy! We will get through we always do!! My Rheumatoid arthritis and back have been really bad, I had another MRI on my back and it shows some slipped discs. I have been on the Humaria for about 4 months now and I am starting to feel a little difference but I am not sure! I will continue more later but for now I have to get ready to take JJ to the doctors. ❤
