5th grade is HERE!

The History of Medicine, Mother Theresa, India, China, Around the World in 80 Days, Genghis Kahn, Eric Liddel, Louis Braille,Aladdin, The Incredible Journey, Blood and Guts, chopsticks, Nutrition, silk worms, Gandhi....and so much more! Currently, Madison has hijacked 2 books and is reading them right now. Matthew wanted to begin putting together the 600 piece global puzzel until I stopped him, and Adrienne is excited about the origami book. I do want the summer to last longer...but all these books get me excited to learn too! And Bill...well he will be more excited after he pays off the visa bill :)

Spontaneous

During a crazy busy summer with swim practice 3 mornings a week, gymnastics 2 mornings and swim meets every Wed night and Sat morning...I realize how important it is to create spontaneous fun memories with Bill and the kids. Like sunglass shopping at Claires or more recently letting the kids play and dance in the rainstorm the other day. Madison said it was the 'best time ever' and was hoping for rain the next night. With Madison now 10 I am realizing my time with them at home with us will be so short in the span of my life. Lord help me see them as the true blessings they are and tresure them. Help me be spontaneous and delight in them...just like you delight in us...your children. Amen.
