Our Life Right Now...

Robert traded in his every other Friday off schedule for getting an extra 30min. of sleep in the mornings(up at 5, instead of 4:30) and getting home around 3:45. It’s awesome that’s he’s home so early.  He’s so happy that the rec soccer season is finally over. Coaching two teams was a lot. Both competitive coaches now want him to be their assistant.

I feel like I’ve hit my stride in my calling. I’ve learned to LOVE texting.  Seriously,  one group text instead of 15 phone calls. Yes, please.  Camp coming soon. Priest/Laurel  prom this weekend.   Tonight we’re having a self defense class.  Learning more than I ever thought possible in this calling. My girls love the YW. Here they are with their friend Sienna.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Bruce is doing great in chess club and hopes to qualify for the upcoming tournament. He loves soccer still. He loves exercise. He comes home excited to tell me with a smile on his face, “We did conditioning the entire practice!”  Working on a lot of school projects.  He’s really starting to look like he’s old enough  to be a 5^th grader now.

Linda finished up a swim class. She started an art class this week. She likes it so far. She continues to love to sing, be the teacher to the little girls, and has made friends with some little girls on our street.  She likes to write poems and songs and read. She’s a sensitive girl.

Jane started her competitive soccer team. She loves that she is in soccer “just like Bruce”. She loves rollerblading and it turns out that a house with wood floors is great for that. We had a scare with her when I took her to the Dr. a couple of weeks ago. There was sugar in her urine and the Dr. was really nervous that she might have Diabetes. I was absolutely sick. Blood tests came back with normal blood sugar levels. Phew! She has a follow up appointment tomorrow.

Claire crossed the monkey bars by herself for the first time today.  She is reading some 2 and 3 letter words and is ready for Kindergarten in the fall. She’ll go in afternoons. She is not a morning person…just like her mother.  She really looks up to Linda.  She is so social and full of life.
