Just wanted to post a quick update on our family... We are all doing great! It was hard last week to get back into the swing of things but we made it.
Jay seemed to have a pretty easy week at work. That's always nice after a week of vacation. We already have our next trip to Disney planned out for the fall so his next quest is preparing for a Disney cruise. It's very expensive but everyone who has gone on it has said it was a great experience- especially with children. Is it a trip for the girls or us?
Rebecca had a really hard time going "back to school" but with some encouragement, has gotten back into the groove. She played her last soccer game of the season and scored the first goal of the game. That put her in game mode and her team won! YAHOO! Actually, they won most of their games this season. Grandma with Red hair and Aunt Kim came up to see her game so she was in heaven.
I started Emily back on her schooling. I had given her a break because it wasn't sinking in at the time. She's still young so I thought if I waited a bit and focused less on academics and more on the "fun" stuff, it'd all work out. I was right. She knows all her letters- capital and lower case- as well as their sounds. She worked on blends today and did wonderfully. We're still working on recognizing the numbers but she's picking it up fast. She has always excelled at the reading readiness activities and crafts that we do.
Both girls went to a nursing home on Sat. with the children's choir to sing and hand out flowers to. They both had a blast. It was neat to see all the children giving hugs and talking to the elderly. Of course, my favorite part is watching them both sing.
As far as I go, I'm doing well. Just my regular day in day out stuff. I prefer it that was. I hate craziness. I have gotten to spend lots of quality time with my husband, girls, sister, and God. Well, the girls are hungry and requesting fruit smoothies so off I must go!
