September 26, 2007

Gosh, its been a long long long time since Ive been able to be on here. I havent gotten to visit any ones blogs or anything. Did everyone give up on me? im sorry :( but im here again. Theres so much that i want to say because so much has happened. but i dont think i have room for everything, so.... Ill just start with an update.

We have started school and its going well. My mother in law, who, as Ive alwasy said, definatly wins the best mom in law award!! i hope i can be that good of a mom in law when i have daughters in law!! She has started teaching reading to my precious Sammy and it is going so well. He is doing great and i think they have formed a little extra bond between the 2 of them. I know Sammys loving it. His  birthday is coming up and he told me "I know Ill get whatever i want cause my grandma is coming to my party" lol.
She also has started something else with all the kids. She is doing a student of the week and student of the month. she is goign to get small gifts for student of the week and student of the month, she will take out for lunch one afternoon. how cool is that!! i think its helping them with motivation. at first, i had mentioned that one was in the lead and a few of them started whining "no fair, i want to win" i just said well, it wont happen that way and their starting to try and work for it. its been great!! i made up a chart to help them track what place thier in, in the running for it.

The older kids are taking a writing class which im real excited about. i think they will do great. Alexs teacher even told me he so focused (???) my son?? focused? lol. how great that hes doing well there. now if i can just figure out how to channel that into our home! lol. Dannis loving it and even though she is shy, she is speaking out and she made a new friend. After the writing class, rotating weeks is art and music. we did art last week, which they lvoed, this week they will do music, i think their all excited about that. soemthing called Boomwhackers? never heard of them but they sure do look neat!!

Our first grandchild is just weeks (or any minutes!!) away from being born. He is due in one week. were all excited about that!! Weve been getting to see the girls more and just loving having them with us again. weve missed them so much!! Ill post pictures when little Gavin Carter Loughman is born!!

Ive got lots more to say but dont want to make this a mile long, so i wont. I will try and get into the routine of posting every morning. go ahead and comment me telling me to get busy if i dont, ok? have a great day!!
