Changes

Happy Easter to all!

I have been so busy the past month.  Jessica was tested by the state to see what was keeping her from learning.  This process has been going on since January.  We finally have part of the results back.  I meet with them next Monday and Tuesday to receive the rest of them and to find out what needs to be done next.  Jessica is low on her IQ test results and her academic.  I knew her academic test scores would be low but not her IQ.  We are praying for her and guidance on how to best her help her achieve her full potential. 

Brittney has received her driving permit.  It has been a real challenge to teach her to drive.  She will not be taking a drivers ed class.  It was way out of our budget for a two week class.  She studied the drivers manual and passed the test on her own.  the real challenge is keeping the car on the road and not causing me to have high blood pressure while I am pregnant.

On March 24th I had my sonogram.  It is another boy.  We are having the big debate over what to name to the baby.  We are slowly getting prepared for him. 

This week we switched the dining room and office/library.  The "family room" was being used for an office/playroom/tv room; since it was much larger than the dining room.  Well, I decided to clean out the office/playroom/tv room.  I took the air hockey table to my mom's house - she has a very large basement.   I put the tv in my bedroom to discourage the kids from turning it on all the time.  Finally, we switched the dining room and the office area.  We had out grown our dining room and needed a larger area to accomodate our long table.  I put all of our bookcases and computer into the old dining room.  It looks like an office/library.  Since it next to the living room I am hoping I will be able to blog a little more often.  I can sit at the computer and talk to Jim in the living room.  The "family room" is open to the end of the kitchen so it works just fine as a dining room.  It is great to be able to put all the leaves in our table.  

Lee and Brittney took the ACT test last Saturday.  I can't wait to get their test results.
