What to say? Not too much has happened in the last month. The kids are still playing hard. Each week there is improvement in their swimming.
David did have his birthday. He was able to add to his Magnetix collection as well as spend some money at the dollar store. Who would have known that $5 at the dollar store could make a kid so happy?
Jason is anxious for school to start because he’s “board.” He’s started reading the new Harry Potter book though, so maybe that will hold him off until August 23rd. Jason has continued to help Eric in the basement. He’s also a lot of help for mom.
Madilyn is also anxious to start school. She is ready for first grade, but still talks about her friends at Starbright. I don’t think that she’s realized that they won’t be in the same school as her. We’ve told her that she’ll be going to the same school as the boys, but who knows sometimes what’s going on inside their heads.
What to say about AJ? He is still a delight and still a challenge. The child does what he wants to; everything he wants and only what he wants to. This often gets him into trouble. He is quick to say, “I sorry,” but it doesn’t change the fact that the next time the impulse hits he is gone again. We can be right there, but the kid is fast and has no fear. Two seconds without a parent looking is all he needs. Any ideas?
Eric is still busy trying to figure out the electrical for the basement. We think that he is about done. I think that he will also be happy when it cools off and he doesn’t have to mow the lawn anymore.
Amy’s sinus woes are back and she has to go back under the knife on the 25th. Hopefully they can take care of it for good this time.
Hopefully we will still be up for camping over Labor Day. Eric’s boss has said he could have the time off.
