Busy days

I appreciate those of you that are still thinking of us and praying for us. Things are really busy right now. I guess it will be that way for many years with 9 kids total!! Our oldest Meaghan will be 18 in September and sent me a nice thinking of you card that shows she is growing up into a thoughtful young lady. Cody is 16 and working and enjoying instant money as a waiter. Justin is 14 and sweet kid and skating. Tyler is 11 and learning how to cook just like his daddy. It is funny the minute I met Bobby all my cooking ability went out the door. Alyssa is 14 and is spending the summer learning to take care of herself and deal with issues regarding her biological father. I am proud of her for taking positive steps to improve her life and faith. Jake is growing into a fine young man. He is getting tall and is very responsible. He has become Bobby's little buddy. Jake also takes his big brother role to the babies very seriously. He is full of useless knowledge which Bobby loves! Alexa is also a suck up and she will tell you about it. She is sweet and is really growing up. She is practicing her soccer and learning to swim under water. She is tough on the soccer field. Who would of thought that the little princess would be so assertive.
Bobby is working hard all around. He does not stop. I often tell him he is ADD. He has really taken his role as spiritual leader and work hard in therapy to improve himself and his relationships. I am very proud of him and LOVE HIM SOOO MUCH! I never thought I would have this kind of love. I thought these feelings were just for TV. The important thing is Bobby and I hold ourselves accountable and we are very honest about our flaws. Therapy is not easy or comfortable. It is about accountability and learning to change and improve yourself. It is not a cake walk or for people in constant denial. Have a great weekend!
Love to all,
Cara Cares
