Eyebrows, shaving, placement testing, new roof & 31

Yes my friends. All that in one week.

Let me start with the placement testing. My daughter has been home schooled since 4th grade. She has now decided in 6th grade that she wants to go back to school. After visiting the school she is sold. Tomorrow is her placement test. I know she'll do fine, but she is a nervous test taker. (like her mother) So prayers needed for smooth sailing & peaceful transitioning from doing her school work at home with mama to learning with kids her age.  I was talking to my daddy today and we both realized that this is the first time except for a 9 month period(pregnancy with Braden) that I will be home alone without a kid. MacKenzie had just started school when I was pregnant with Braden. He went to kindergarten this year.

Eyebrows, this comes into play because since she has been at school with kids her own age(apparently middle school means I am to cool to look uncool) she has realized that the uni brow she has been sporting must go. So we plucked her eyebrows tonight. OH and I gave her a lesson in shaving her legs. Whewww if these are the changes we are making for middle school I don't wanna know what I am in for the first week of high school.

So we ended up having to get a new roof. They finished up repairing the water damage on the inside yesterday. SO in a weeks time for two days all I heard was constant hammering. Then two more days the smell of paint fumes, my living room and kitchen torn completely apart. 

Lastly, I turn 31 in the morning. Seems like just yesterday I was turning 30. I don't dread turning another year older. I see it as a gift from GOD.He has blessed me with more time to enjoy all the people that HE has given me. Another year older means a little more wiser.
