My longtime wish/prayer for a laptop has been granted! Jeff came home with a trunk full of computer goodies - what a wonderful hubby God has given me! I'm thrilled and can even work from the kitchen table (or some place more comfortable :)!!
The boys started school on Wednesday and are excited about the new year. Jacob is now an "old foagie" - which means he is the older/wiser group of his multiage 1-2 grade class. One of his favorite things these first few days has been helping his "newbie" (1st grade) buddies learn the computer. Keith's 3rd grade class is all decked out with things about Africa! We thought this was SO cool, since he's had a fascination with Africa since his toddler years :)! His teacher seems very energetic! Keith loves the 3rd grade cheers they have and says that Mrs Manning told them the year gets more and more fun as it goes! The boys wanted to hold their little dog buddies (souveniers from the summer at camp) in the school pictures :)! Kara and Mommy are trying to do some preschool books at home this year. She is SO ready to be a big school girl. We worked on circles the first day! She is doing LOTS of 4-5 year old work. One preschool teacher at our church saw Kara skipping out of the sanctuary and stopped us later to tell us that some 5 years olds in her class can't even do that!!! Kara was SO proud that she's only 3 and can do it :)!
