School Update

We are in full swing with school over here.  Last year was a difficult year for my boys.  Lots of wiggles and attitude, but this year things are soooo much different.  My kids all have great teachers who are so supportive of them and love their energy.  Shawn and I couldn't be happier and it's definitely reflected in our kids.  We had parent teacher conference last week.  The reports were all so positive and good.  Sure, they have areas to improve in, but overall nothing but good comments.

Ethan came home from school a few weeks ago with a flyer for a school program called K-kids.  He asked if he could join.  This is not typical of Ethan to want to be involved with school programs (he often will hide flyers given to him by his teacher so that I won't try to talk him in to signing up).  The K-Kids Program is for 4th and 5th graders and they meet every Wednesday to discuss and plan activities that the school can participate in to help the community.  He went to the first meeting and loved it.  He loves Wednesdays now.  They are planning a food drive right now and he is excited to participate.

Today Liv is home sick.  We are snuggling in my bed watching a movie.  She threw-up all over my bathroom this morning.  I am enjoying a day home with my girl.  At first the boys were mad that liv "got to stay home and throw-up", but then they all brought her their stuffed animals to help her feel better while they were at school.

Liv grabbed my phone the other night while we were watching a movie together as a family.  She started taking pictures of the TV.  When I asked her what she was doing her response was, "I want to remember this moment, I am happy."  I thought that was sweet.  So here is her pictures to remember our happy family moment.
