Hi everyone! We are currently back in the Austin area after spending a month with Henry and Ronda in Minnesota. Bill resigned his position at our church since we were not sure of Henry's condition and how long we might need to be in MN. While Henry was in the hospital, a nice snowstorm came for a couple of days and when he saw the ground covered in white, he was ready to head for the Mexican border. Somehow, the snow seemed to have a strengthening affect on Henry, so here we are in Texas!
We are renting a wonderful home in the hill country from some great friends. Henry and Ronda will stay with us until Henry is strong enough to live in their trailer comfortably. I continue to homeschool and I just started working for a foster care and adoption agency part-time. Bill is currently doing art projects for people. He has done a few time-lapsed sketches that he posted on YouTube. On Thanksgiving day, we were shocked when his "Father and Son" sketch was featured on the front page. He received over 4,000 emails that day and the video has been viewed by over 251,000 people! A local, downtown art gallery will be doing a showing of Bill's art next month. We are so excited.
Britain and Sara continue their studies at home (despite Mom's lack of organization due to the seemingly constant relocating). Britain created a page on MySpace, giving himself a new name under which he writes songs. You can see his site at http://www.myspace.com/austinmccoymusic
My favorite song that he has written is "My World Without You."
Sara is passionate about fashion design, so she is always drawing, planning, and dragging us to the mall to look at the latest design. I love hearing her comment on the "cut" and the fabrics.
We wish you all a very Merry Christmas!
