Family Update

Our family is doing well, Miri is getting potty trained, Jeffrey moving everywhere (I mean it), and Brian puttsin' along, we're all doing okay.

Jeffrey is now 6 months old and rolling and scooting everywhere. It's all another reason to clean up. :( Oh well.

Miri is 2 and being potty trained, and it's quite an experience! She had 4 or 5 accidents 1 or 2 days ago; Dad's getting quite good at cleaning messes up. Miri is talking and messing up a storm enough that some of us sometimes refer to her as Walking Talking Tornado. At times it seems that she only has one volume- loud.

Brian is 4 and is going to preschool and loves it. At dinner we have goods and bads, and his are almost always - "Good: I got to go to school today" or " Good: I get to go to school tomorrow. " "Bad: I don't have school tomorrow" or " Bad: I didn't get to go to school today."

Laura is 7 and says "I don't want to go to school today" and after school says " I had a good day!" She is very good with Miri, which makes it easier for Mom and Dad.

Rachel is 9 years old and is obsessed with Nintendogs and loves her dogs. At school her favorite subject is math, social studies, or science.

I am 10 years old and I love to read. Right now I am reading the Warrior series. It is about a couple groups of cats. I don't have a favorite subject at school because I like all of them.

Mom is forever doing work, but finds time for everything else. She is totally amazing! How she finds time for her stuff is a mystery.

Dad works from home and is almost forever busy. It is a big help to have him around to help Mom. He is amazing!

So, all in all we are doing well.
