School and More

School has been interesting! I have only 11 students, but eight of them are boys so that makes life more fun! This week has been SAT week so it has been fairly quiet and tiring for them! The kids are in third grade so right in the middle of being little and big. I haven't taught third grade before so this is all NEW to me!!!!

Sophia is LOVING preschool and learning a lot about the Bible which is cool. Zack has yet to begin at the school as I did not want him taking SATs so he will begin on Monday. I think he'll like it as the kindergarten teacher is excellent! She is the teacher I wish he'd had all year!

Saturday, Sophia and I got to spend some fun time with Auntie Amy who has the coolest kid movies! She also loves to play with stuffed puppies! Amy's mom gave her the cutest coin purse which she filled with pennies to be thrown into the fountain!

Zack had an awesome birthday party at Chuck E. Cheese where he played until he dropped! He got a ton of video games for his DS and Xbox 360 so he was jazzed. If he could, he'd play video games ALL DAY LONG!!!! But, that just isn't gonna happen!

Mom moves to Texas on the 19th, but she'll be going back and forth with the seasons! We here in CA are happy to hear that. She really is the greatest grandma alive! My kids are SO FORTUNATE to have her in their lives!!!! She really does love on the kids and reach them on their level which is so cool! Zack and Sophia will visit her many times over in Texas especially during the summers! I really am fortunate to have a family who will rally around the kids like they do. Life would be way too easy if I moved back to Texas, but that's just not gonna happen!

I have a feeling that God has something really awesome around the corner here in CA for us! He sure has gone to great lengths to get my attention.
