dance

Yesterday was the first dance class for my girls. They were so excited! We even went to parent/teacher conferences dressed in their dance clothes. I was nervous, based on past experience, that they would even get the nerve up to go. I’ve been fooled by innocent excitement before and spent many mornings sitting by a…

This is London

I am now back in the States, and London was great. I flew out of Marrakech on Friday midday, and landed in London late afternoon. We took the trains from Gatwick Airport to Victoria Station and then rode the tubes. That city has mass transit perfected. Great set of maps, tubes, and can get you…

too much too little

It’s been a while since I wrote last. I keep doing things and thinking, I should really blog about that. Then I think, wait, there is too much to write and too little time. It’s ok though. Stephen has kept us so much more entertained w/ his excited adventures than I could have. Also, I…

Book tag

Darilyn tagged me a few days ago. This really is a different tag and I am excited to see what books strike my interest from it. Here’s how it works: 1. Pick up the nearest book (one of at least 123 pages) 2. Open the page to 123 3. Find the 5th sentence. 4. Post…

 Ok, here is a 2 for 1. I have been asked a few times where ducklips came from. Emily also wanted to hear some Kasmir stories. Well, this is all one and the same. Most of you know that Kas was around for almost 4 years before we had the girls. Everything in Steve’s…

Today

So today has been very full and I thought maybe I should write it all down. I noticed the other day that I have a tendency to forget things. Kas wanted me to tell him stories from when he was a “kid”. I guess he is grown up now. Well those of you who know…

Something new

Ok, so it’s been a while since I posted anything new. Sorry. Everytime I got on my kids would jump on my lap and insist that they blog. So, I hope everyone has enjoyed Addie and Zo over the past couple of weeks. There has been a lot going on. On Monday after work I…

My Friend Addie

   Addie likes blue. I like my friend Addie and I like her to be my friend all the time. Addie is my best friend and I like blue and lambie and Zo. I like her to play w/ me. Here is a picture that Addie took of me. And, of all of…

So tired

today we released the new site for where I work. It is finally done and it actually has some content. You can look at it if you go to www.ciscolearning.org (which by writing this, should make a link for you suckerheads who are too lazy to copy and paste that URL yourself). It represents a…

Halleluja

School starts tomorrow! I am definitely ready for some routine and a steady bedtime around here. We just had FHE and now Kas is reading his sisters a bedtime story. I love that. For FHE tonight we made some goals, family and individual goals. One of Kas’ was to finish speech this year. To accomplish…
