Summer 2007

As many of you knew, Danielle and I traveled home to attend Nicole, our oldest daughters graduation from Cal Poly San Luis. The photo includes from left to right: My dad Bob Scherer, Danielle, my sister Suzie, (in front) my mom Kay Scherer, (behind her) my nephew Craig who attends Annapolis, Kevin, Nicole, behind her to the right, Ralph, Howard's dad, me and in front of me Ralph's wife, Helen. We had such a fun time celebrating the day with her and are so proud of her accomplishments. There was a large ceremony and then the individual colleges held smaller ceremonies, where Nicole received her Bachelor of Science degree.
During our time in the states, it worked out for my mom to schedule back surgery. The girls and I were able to help she and my dad move into one of their one bedroom apartments, so my mom wouldn't have to maneuver stairs during her recovery process. I am happy to report the surgery was a success, however I would appreciate prayer for my mom as the recovery has been a little slower than she had hoped.
I regret we weren't able to see very many people while we were there. I really believe God oversaw the timing though, so I could be there during this time with my parents. It has been years since we were able to just sit and enjoy talking with my folks. Even at 45, I still love to lay on the bed with my mom and share the days events.
Another subject I had not elaborated on was Nicole returning to Ecuador with Danielle and I. This was part of her graduation gift from us and we have loved every minute. She has been working with Howard on the training center for Leader Mundial. She also has been working with the eleven horses we have here on the property.
One week after Nicole arrived, she found out she had been accepted to a Vet school in Canada. She has gone through the process of weighing all her options and in the end has decided to turn the offer down for various reasons. I ask prayer for her as she decides what to, once she arrives back in California.
We would love to hear from you about the things you are doing during the summer of 2007.
