Tom College!



And we now have a college man in the house!  Today was Tom's first day at Ely Community College.  He is finishing his senior year of high school in the PSEO (post secondary educational options) program.  He will graduate from high school this spring with half a year's college credits under his belt :)  I am very proud of Thomas.  He has been a good student here at home, a great athlete at the "real school" playing baseball every year and football last fall.  He has been a great example in Sunday School, the oldest one there with Reuben being the only one near his age, and he does not complain or balk about going.  And most importantly he knows where his Salvation lies and, as everyone around here has heard me said a thousand times, there is NOTHING more important! 
So HOORAY FOR YOU, TOM!  You are taking those first steps out on your own in becoming the man God wants you to be :)  I am praying for you, as always! 
NEVER FORGET where your Salvation lies!

Awesome! If you ever get tired of your kids, I call dibs on them. :)

I got a flyer in the mail from a boot store in Ely, Minnesota. Every time I look at it I think about you guys! Also my violin strings come from Minnesota. I picture it as a magical land of Lutherans and cool stores.
