The Kids

Posted in kids

I am happy to report that everyone is doing well at our house again! After 3 days of on again, off again, mystery leg pain, Timothy is now fine. He must have pulled a muscle or something that bothered him for a few days. Of course, we had just finished paying for last years trip to the ER...........

Sarah successfully finished school 3 weeks early! She got really motivated and doubled up on everything she had left. Not only that but she took her achievement test and we already got the results back. She scored in the 81st percentile, which means she scored as high or higher than 81% of 6th graders. She also made all A's and B's in school this year. We are very proud of her!

The spring musical is coming up two Sunday's from now. Timmy's choir is singing two songs. I love to listen to his rendition of one of them. I will put the actual words first, his translation in parenthesis. I don't know all of the real words so I will do my best:

A gentle breeze (a dental breeze)
And [something about] trees (and make me trees)
And busy busy bumble bees (and busy busy bum knees)
But better than all of these (but 'etter than all of these)
Simple as ABC's (He Gets The Rest Right)
From my head down to my knees, I thank God for all of these.

Sarah is very excited about her part in the musical "Acorns to Oaks." She has a pretty major part and several solos. She also gets to be a rumor weed (yes, like Larry Boy and the Rumor Weed). We even get to sing the Rumor Weed song! It is going to be so much fun!
