Jasper returns
Before we sold the house Isaac dropped Jasper in the garage and he stayed hidden for several days before we found him when cleaning out for our house inspection. Within a couple of days Jasper got out of his cage (we can’t be sure how) and has been missing every since. (Apparently Savannah had seen…

Goodbye Elliot
Sometime in the middle of the morning Savannah asked me to come downstairs and there she showed me Elliot who was hardly moving, obviously bloated, and looking very fragile. We both agreed that there was not likely anything to be done for him except try to make him comfortable and pray for him. I told…

Storage space
Today Laura rented us a storage unit so we can begin to make space in our house again. In the evening we took the loaded trailer and put that first load in the shed. Savannah had to go compose herself rather than help because loading the trailer makes moving to real for her. She is…

Pet day
We never did find sugar yesterday and when I got home today I was told that Coconut had escaped again. While I was standing the kitchen not to minutes later I looked out the back door and said, ” there’s Coconut.” Noah looked up to see Coconut and said, “there’s Sugar.” Both bunnies found, in…

Lost bunnies
At 8:40 this morning Mariah called me to tell me that the bunnies had escaped from the outdoor pen I had constructed again on Saturday. I told her there was nothing I could do from work. The truth is that I prayed. I asked that we not have a repeat of Spice, that if we…

Saffron and Elli…ot
Not long after Savannah left this morning for the Utah Classic ballroom competition Mariah called me into their room. “Dad come look, you’ve got to see this.” While we purchased two female dwarf hamsters it turns out that Ellie is actually Elliot. I’m hopeful that first-time-mother Saffron doesn’t get to worried to care for her…

That should have been ample time for Alyssa to return but she didn’t. I spent another hours in Mom’s neighbors searching for her. Just…

DCFS again
As if it was Groundhog Day, our day was dominated by DCFS again when, for reasons not yet shared with us, Adelyn pulled basically all our kids out of class to ask what their parents are like when they are angry. I found out as Savannah tried twice to call me and then told me…

A path forward
I took today off to be at two meetings for Enoch. Each was scheduled for an hour and each took over 2 hours. At the first meeting we went to Matt’s Place and meet with a counselor named Shirlene. I love the fact that she soon identified that what Enoch needed was to have the…

Tender hearts
Early morning I saw that the bunnies were out of their pen and asked Isaac to bring them back into the garage. As I left at 8:10 to go to work (from Mom’s house today) I saw a small animal lying in the road. As I got near I realized it was our bunny, Spice.…
