This year Brett and I decided to put Fenix in the special education Kindergarden due to some of the difficulties he's had. I am very greatful for this class, since the other classes have 40 kids to one teacher and I could very easily see Fenix fall through the cracks. The class we put him in has 8 students! His teacher is Mrs. Perez and and he's so excited about 
school and learning. We love our buzz man.
Two years ago, Brett decided he needed to walk away from the military life. When he came home from Iraq, he had a great opportunity to join CID (Criminal Investigation Department) but was afraid he would be sent back to war territory. We felt the best decision was to move back to Las Vegas, where Brett would get into the car business just like his dad. I have always been impressed with how much Brett knows about cars, so I figured... put all that knowledge to use. Brett did extremely well until the economy took a turn for the worst....This was a very difficult time because Brett was dealing with major financial strains and he was having panic attacks due to PTSD. (Post traumatic stress syndrome) Brett applied for Metro PD and everything looked promising....Brett had his psych evaluation left, and he was in....We received a letter advising Brett had not been selected due to him being a high risk because of his PTSD. This was a huge blow and left us wondering what do we do now. I am a firm beleiver that we made it through only because of Heavenly Father. We were given blessings that only our Heavenly Father knew we needed. Brett is now working for one of the MGM Casinos as a Surveilance Investigator. We are thinking very seriously about moving back to Arizona. The job economy is horrible out here, unless you want to work in a casino, and thats not exactly my choice of employment. I have always wanted to move back to Arizona so maybe we will have that opportunity soon. Just thought I would update everyone with what our family has been going thru since we moved back...
