We are such an outdoorsie-type family; the arrival of spring is almost like its own Scruggs-family holiday! We love it!
The kids are actively involved in T-ball, softball (fast-pitch), outdoor soccer, along with two musicals for Eden; school-The Jungle Book and one at church, and Eden's spring ballet recital. We have a whole list of Spring activities, and we haven't even got started.
I am anxiously finishing up my fourth semester in graduate school which includes my student teaching. I am so happy to be on the downside of this hill. It has been such a climb to get where I am today. It almost doesn't feel real to be finishing my degree and in three short semesters (mini) I will graduate with my Master's in Special Education in July. Just in time to teach in August...please keep praying for God's will and a new job:)
And with all endings come new beginnings....Kelly has enrolled in graduate school for his Master's in Business Administration and will begin in May. I am so proud of him and can't be happier for our family and the progress we are making to move forward not only in our careers but in our lives.
Hank is in the last sprint of his Kindergarten year. He is excelling and performing wonderfully. He is a smart, funny, creative, active, little boy...loved by everyone! We are so proud of who is becoming and his little personality that is blossoming and blooming beyond our expectations. With a season of winter, indoor soccer, we have moved on to spring, outdoor soccer with his cousin Asa as his teammate. He absolutely loves this sport, and is really quite good with speed and a good feel for defense. T-ball is also on his agenda, where on a team with mainly pre-k-aged children, Hank is excelling in hitting and throwing and being a seasoned veteran of the game.
Eden is excelling in third grade, just like we anticipated. She actively pursued two roles in local musicals; one in The Jungle Book as Baby Elephant, with a singing and dance routine; and one in our church's Spring performance with a solo and speaking part-and received them both! She is so happy and loves to perform-she is definitely in her element....loves to entertain. Along with performing, she is starting her first year in fast-pitch softball...an experience for us all! Eden loves her friends and loves being active, softball is wonderful to be outdoors and play at the park-it just goes along with the season, but fast-pitch is a whole different level. Stay tuned for that one...:)
Two busy children and two busy parents and here we are, anxiously awaiting warmer weather, longer days, and fun nights in the yard and at the park. We can't wait, bring on the sunshine!
