May God’s love surround you in this
2011 Christmas season.
And
may you and yours be surrounded with peace, hope, joy, and
love.
OH! (From
Cassie) It may seem a weird thing to say (it is for
me) but my mom is getting MARRIED!! She has known Ron for a
couple years now. The friendship turned to love this fall and
the wedding is in spring 2012. I’ve never seen her happier
But… I’ve also never seen her busier.
She actually doesn’t return my phone call within the
hour anymore. I'm so happy for her.
OH!
Marianne has loved living in Colorado
for more than a year now. She’s been working as a nanny for
three children most of that time. She became a certified
scuba diver this year on her Bonaire vacation with
Cassie and also got to come home for a family reunion in
Indiana.
But… She spent her first
Thanksgiving away from home!
OH! Matthew ended his senior year with
his show choir, The Classics, winning National
Champions. He won best
male soloist there as well - which was a huge honor. He
is now loving Belmont
and is an official Phi
Delta Theta. After a fun semester of music
classes and pledging and studying (ahem!), he has plans for a
Christmas at home.
But… A few months in Nashville and he
thinks that it’s FREEZING when the temperature drops below 30.
OH! Andrew is a freshman in high
school. He joined the novice play and really loved being “Hollywood Agent”. He
is also now a member of The Classics, who will host the fame
national championship in Chicago this spring. He can’t seem to
stop writing music, but he is his own worst critic. It is a
quiet house with the other kids gone but Andrew more than
makes up for that with the dinner music, watching-TV music and
general doesn’t-stop-playing
music
But…
Yeah. He plays a lot.
OH!
Cassie received tenure at Waubonsee
Community College and is now an Assistant
professor in Sign Language and Interpreter training. She
took Marianne to Bonaire
this year and it was some great Mommy/
daughter/ Grandma time. She was so busy
grading this year, she didn’t care
to put up the tree and didn’t even do the
“straightening of the branches” once Kirk did put it up. Give
that girl a glass of
wine.
But…
No, not TWO glasses.
OH!
Kirk has served as the pastor of Union
Congregational UCC in Somonauk for 5 years now . . . and
is currently seeking a next call, as the church has
transitioned to having a part-time pastor. Oh the joy of
financial difficulties! He’s also continued to write, (Faith Practices
and Interlinc)
sing, (check out the YouTube videos)
and even teach guitar. (kirkmoorewillteachyouguitar.com)
But…
Trusting in God’s timing and impatience don’t go well
together.
- PEACE . . . HOPE . . . JOY . . . LOVE
