Loving Life

It has been several days since I updated......


Max is having a great time at school.  He is working on shapes (which he already knows).   He likes to bring things for show and tell on Thursdays.  They are preparing for their fall play.  Max has been telling me great jokes from his part.  It is way fun for all of us.  


Max is also learning the pledge of allegiance.  Here is Max's version....


I pledge deligence to the flag of the United States of America and to the Replubic for whigage stands, woog nation under God indivisible with liberty and justice for all.  



Ben is doing well too.....he is starting to talk more and more each day.  Well, I guess that he has been talking for a long time, but more and more words are coming out.   He has started sharing full thoughts which is fun.  Hard to understand on the phone (when he does talk), but in person he is a riot.  


Ben also likes to hide in the toy closet (which is the coat closet).  He goes in there and will play for a few minutes and then plays peek a boo with me.  He is just so much fun right now.  He keeps me laughing 90% of the time and frustrated beyond belief the other 10%.  He has already learned the skill of selective hearing (LOL).  


He is also unbelievably smart for his age.  I was totally shocked the other day when we were in the parking lot at the Good Will and he pointed and said, "Red car".  Then he turned and said, "White truck".  I did not even know he knew those colors.  


A week ago we had a great time at the park.  I picked Max up from school and we all went to the park, not to play on the playground, but to take a fall walk.  The kids had so much fun tell me about the colored trees.  I got some great photos of the trees, not the kids.  It is hard to get them to pay attention long enough for a good photo. 


Max had a great time this past weekend.  He got to ride on a float in the Homecoming parade.  He was with his pre-school class and loved throwing out candy.  After that we had a soccer game.  He always loves soccer.  Too bad this is the last weekend for it.  


Life is good and we are loving it.
