Hoo boy. I just realized today that I am waaaay behiind with my hat production this year. I somehow forgot that I was supposed to be making 2 a month and started to think that one per month was my quota. That means I have about 20 left to make this year, if I want to reach my goal of 50 hats in two years. I don't think I can manage it. I will extend the time frame by another year, unless something happens to set me up to make a lot of hats in a short time.

I didn't mention in my last post that the reason Ephram had his wisdom teeth out was for his mission application. The dentist wouldn't sign off without doing it. And now Ephram has his call. He is going to the Ghana Cape Coast mission. He enters the Ghana MTC on August 21st. We are excited. I feel that the assignment is perfect. He will speak English, but otherwise he will be in a world completely different than anything he has known. He will be great.

I just remembered I had this site sometime last week. I have been so busy in the meantime with holidays and the start of the new year, which brings catching up with a lot of other work done on the computer that I clean forgot about this site. I guess I will need to start posting to it again.

Ephram had his wisdom teeth out this morning. I need to stick around to nurse him for the rest of the day. He took a sedative, so he is out of it. Ephram should sleep most of the rest of the day. I almost feel bad that I will need to rouse him to change cold packs, gauze compresses in his mouth, and to have him take pain medications.
