We have experienced yet a first in parenting - Makenzie's first official report card. CRAZY!!! It was all great! We had a very pride-filled day on Monday, February 9th - with a girl who's finally learning how to dunk her head in swimming lessons and a girl who is doing so well school!
Makenzie is learning how to read and write and even do some very simple math problems. It seems to amaze me what they are teaching kids in Kindergarten now! She is a good student, listens well and follows directions. She gets along with her peers and is well liked by others. Her life skills are almost more important to me. No matter how smart she is, or isn't, I'm happy as long as she is a nice girl who knows respect and uses her manners.
As for Tyler, he seems to be coming around! He LOVES his train set! Misses his Papa Jim and has to point him out on the family picutre in the dining room every once in a while. His new favorite book is "Mike Mulligan and His Steam Shovel." He went to bed with it tonight!!
If you haven't heard, the new University of Minnesota Children's Hospital just recieved a huge sum of money as a donation. A chunk of it will go to a new pediatric catheritization lab. We're hoping not to go back there very soon, but when we do, it will be at the new hospital - opening in mid-2011.
Thanks for keeping up with us! Take care and enjoy the warmer weather.
