quick update

we have been up at mom's since sunday. we are taking care of pappy for them. nana is still in the hospital and it isn't looking good. i will continue to update you all as i can. pappy is napping, so i don't have much time here, but wanted to let you all know where we are since i haven't been on the blog this week. pappy is very weak, and doesn't have much interest in mobility or eating right now, so it is all we can do to get him to walk in and out of the house a couple of times a day. eating is another story, i basically have been conning him into eating. he doesn't have control of his bladder anymore, and today he stated to me "you have a patient 24 hours a day don't you?" this was after I had given him a bath. So, needless to say, i am exhausted, but we are getting by with all of the stress of jackie passing, and nana being diagnosed with leukemia... then yesterday the doctor told her that if she didn't take chemo, she only had 2 weeks to live. they were going to see what one treatment did via bloodwork today, and i haven't heard what the results there were, but i talked to her this morning and she was so worried about "my babies" as she put it. I may see if mom will come home and take me and the girls up there so she can see her babies. pappy has given the girls new names... they are MADDIE LOU and KENZIE SUE! they are both so worried about the girls. it is awesome to see the love they have when they both are not doing well. anyway, i will update you again when i can.
love,
the cox family

School is OUT!!!

Today was bittersweet for me.  I am happy its summer break, but that means we only have 2 years before we have a MIDDLESCHOOLER!  I cant believe we are that close already!  Both girls had a great day.  I got soaked walking to get Madispn, then the rain slacked off enough for me to have buckets of sweat rolling into my eyes!  It has been so humid here that i sweat as soon as i go outside let alone walk the more than 1/2 mile to her school.  We are starting a new walking track tomorrow... not sure how far but its gonna be fun to see

sad but true

Since the Pledge of Allegiance and The Lord's Prayer are not allowed in most public schools anymore Because the word "God" is mentioned...... A kid in Arizona wrote the attached NEW School prayer: Now I sit me down in school Where praying is against the rule For this great nation under God Finds mention of Him very odd. If Scripture now the class recites, It violates the Bill of Rights. And anytime my head I bow Becomes a Federal matter now. Our hair can be purple, orange or green, That's no offense; it's a freedom scene. The law is specific, the law is precise. Prayers spoken aloud are a serious vice. For praying in a public hall Might offend someone with no faith at all. In silence alone we must meditate, God's name is prohibited by the state. We're allowed to cuss and dress like freaks, And pierce our noses, tongues and cheeks. They've outlawed guns, but FIRST the Bible. To quote the Good Book makes me liable. We can elect a pregnant Senior Queen,...
