Well I wish I could say I something wonderful to report but I don't really. Well wait I do after one year of working on it I finally finished painting my bedroom closet. I didn't do it in all at once I did it section by section because there was so much to paint and so many little things. Anyway I AM DONE!!! Besides that there isn't much happening here really. It is spring time we are working on the back yard. The tree that the termites ate the middle out of is finally down. Albert chopped it down yesterday. Now I have to go out there and clean up all that saw dust from all over the patio. Then our next project is going to be relaying the patio. It is just regular bricks laid on the ground. The tree roots and stuff have grown and it is extremely unlevel. So we are going to relay it. While we are relaying we are going to lay brick up to the house and get rid of the floor beds and fill in the hole where the tree was. We just need to figure out how to get the stump out of there.
The kids are well and busy as ever. Sarah is doing well in school. She continues to improve on her math. Albert well he has a long way to go before he is ready to start school. I have been working with him but with him everything takes a long time. Well actually probably not longer than normal kids but he is following Sarah so for me it seems he learns really slow. I sometimes have to stop and remind myself he is not like Sarah. She learns thing really fast. He is doing well though. He finally sat and played games with me correctly. Two games in a row actually. We played Hi-HO Cherrio and then Candyland. He knows how to count to 12. He doesn't always start at one but he can. He can say the alphabet with a little help. Of course he doesn't say letters really yet they are just sounds to him still but we are getting there. His colors are what has me the most ummm what's the word oh I don't know frustrated maybe. I have been working with him off and on for monthes with his colors and he isn't getting it. He knows the names like when I ask what color something he keeps guessing until he gets it. He does know yellow. Some days he gets them all most days he only knows yellow and usually purple. I am convinced he is going to continue to be left handed. He can and does use both hands but he favors his left.
Well I guess I had a lot more to say than I first thought. Oh yeah I got my first tooth fillings um last week I guess. Albert was picking on me because of my crocked smile. So here is that picture.
