Smith News!
* Kayla has a loose tooth! It's in front. Apparently, she is jealous of the attention Sierra has gotten by losing her teeth, so Kayla is joining in the party.
* Still haven't heard from the USAF. My recruiter has been incommunicado for the LAST TWO WEEKS. No idea what the deal is, because all he had to do was send my paperwork down to Randolph AFB (Texas). Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!
* Dad went on a retreat with the highschoolers from King's Christian Academy, and had a good time with the students. He made it home safely.
* Kayla participated in a musical this week called "The American Dream." She went Tuesday evening only needing to know the words, "South Korea." She ended up talking about Tecumseh as well! Someone did not show up, and so she got to do his lines (4 lines, that is). She memorized them quickly beforehand, and did a great job!
*While cleaning up around the house, we picked up the grill cover, and found a colony of ants in it! Big, black ones were all over it!
*Sierra has been learning about worms at school, as well as sign language. She has brought that knowledge home to us, and shared it with EVERYONE! It's been quite interesting. In fact, she was able to inform Jennifer that a worm found out in the yard was a baby worm and not an adult. She knows the difference. Do you? If you want to know, you'll have to call her!
*Dad's grandfather is in a bad way in Oklahoma, and he may be going out there soon to see him.
Okay, that's all of the Smith news that is fit to print. Questions? Comments? Old war stories? Let us know!

Happy Resurrection Day! What a glorious reminder of the basic foundation of Christianity! Okay, so it's a day early--deal with it.
Not much has gone on this week. Kayla is sick. She has a sore throat, a fever, and a nasty, croupy cough, all of which really evidenced itself last night when she threw up! Of course, she and I were not at home, so that made it all the more fun. We were at a lock-in with Dunkirk Baptist Church, helping out our good friends--Ken and Becky Case. It was a great lock-in, and a wonderful group of kids, but Kayla made sure to add a little excitement in the mix.
Sierra has another wiggly tooth, which we are all awaiting the "demise" of. This will be her fourth. It must be the season. Every kid her age, it seems, has lost three or four teeth.
Still waiting on the USAF Recruiter to tell me that he has sent my stuff to Randolph AFB. Maybe, by Saturday, we'll actually have an update on that.
Again, have a wonderful Easter!

Kraig Checks a Box!
Today, I completed my military medical physical. I managed to do the all of the twisting, spreading, turning, duckwalking, paperfilling, bloodgiving, turning and coughing, and cup peeing that I was requested to do, and without incident (although there was the spilling soap on my pants and then walking out of the bathroom!). Now, I just wait for 2-4 weeks for all of the bloodwork results to return, and everything to be shipped to the Chaplain Accessions Board at Randolph AFB, TX. After that, whatever form has to be taken to whichever general for his signature, and my packet is then turned over to the Assignment Office, and I've no idea how long that will take.

Things are getting back to normal somewhat. Kraig is finally looking and feeling better, the girls are taking care of things other than their father, and I am back on Maryland time. Here are just a few things about this week:
**Kraig is scheduled for his physical on Monday (again). We are praying there are no more delays.
**Just in case anyone else was counting...Kraig and I will have been married 12 years on Sunday. My, how the time has flown by.
**Aunt Tambrea & Uncle John's anniversary is also Sunday.
**Kraig will go back to all of his jobs on Tuesday...hopefully it won't kill him.
**Sierra is still toothless.
**We will talk today with one of our former youth, (who is now a real estate agent) AJ Dobson, about selling our house this summer.
**Kayla stayed up until about 6 a.m. this morning at a sleepover, so she's not been a whole lot of help today, understandably.
Life has slowed down for a week, and it's now time for it to pick back up!
