Grade announcement!

I got an "A" in my Psycho/Socio Linguistics class. I was so happy. That class was a lot of work and very different from any class I have taken thus far. Since I have never taken a linguistics course, I was a little intimidated. I learned a lot and am looking forward (kind of) to taking another course in the Spring of 2009. Then I will be set for my license renewal. I hope one day I will actually be able to use it in a real classroom setting. Of course, everything I learn is helpful in teaching my own little guys and as I have said over and over there is no wasted learning.

Kindergarten Graduation

Ethan received so many awards in Kindergarten this year. His greatest achievements were Kindergarten Honor Roll, Mastery of all skills, and Accelerated Reader highest percentage in his class as well as the school. We were very happy for his great accomplishments. He was very excited afterward at the graduation party and wanted everyone to see his wonderful cache of awards.
It was a privilege to experience his special day with him.

Baseball Fun

We are really enjoying baseball this year with the boys. Ethan is playing with the Kentucky Wildcats and Stephen with the Stanford Cardinals. Both are having a great time and improving each game. This is Stephen's first year playing ball and due to his age, had to start with machine pitch. At first, it was hard for him to hit but now, he is able to hit with much more confidence. Ethan opted for T-ball again this year. He is also doing very well. He rarely lets a ball get past him and he is hitting very well.

Run Ethie!!!


He made it!
