I promise, only 30-45 minutes longer...

Who know Valentine week would be such a BUST week?

I didn't, otherwise I wouldn't have is scheduled like I do.

I just finished making 30, unfrosted cupcakes for church. In good news, they are letting the kids frost them for an activity of some sort. YAY, no frosting. Now I hope I remeber to take them to church.

I also managed to sort of clean the kitchen area up...

And now I am back to mount Laundry. Criminey...the laundry never ends.

Tonight we had PN's parent teacher conference. It was wonderful. She is a hard worker, and a good student. YAY! I am never sure "where" she is, because of SR. Is she reading as much as her peers, is she writing correctly, etc. I found out, she is the second best reader in the class, I will take that, and continue to work with her. She lacks confidence. She ocassionally will write letters and numbers backward, I guess this is normal, and not a huge deal. She LISTENS, and follows rules. AAAAHHHH....

Tomorrow, women's Bible Study! I am GOING, I need it this week...I feel discombobulated for no reason. That is a feeling I do not get often, and usaully being uber busy helps...not this week.

DH is ill with a sinus infection, is on a z-pak, PN has a cold, and SR has a partial cold...

The dog is castrated Friday...Shhhhh....don't tell him. He is also going to stay at the Vet's office for 3 days, because DH is going ice fishing with 2 very good friends he has not been able to spend time with in ages. I do not want to sit here, and try and keep him calm etc...

Off to do 2 loads of laundry....then to bed...

I forget...what grade is PN in again? I'm just thrilled that my kindergarten son, while still a handful to manage in class, DOES read. (His sister, 3 years older, didn't start to read until middle of 1st grade, and even then it was torture). And while I often angst over my son's downhill and messy writing, I've had to help some of the other boys in his class, and they are worse, so all in all, I'm happy with his progress. I remember when kindergarten was all about colors and learning to count. Now the stress is on learning 40 sight words before the end of the year!

PN is in Kindergarten...she does very well, considering half of her life has been spent reading about SR's interests, instead of her own...I let both kids pick out a book nightly. She lacks confidence, because SR is her Brother...We are working on this..

Her writing is as neat as a pin, SR's writing is horrid, and it is his least favorite thing to do....

AWTM,
Just checking in. I've been gone for a while.

Poor doggie. Give him a McD's hamburger or something.

How's the winter in Nebraska?
